Have your class discuss laws that are unjust or unfair (maybe talk about curfews or riding bikes and roller blades at school.) Part Two: Then bring in Lin's write-up on Rosa Parks & the Montgomery Bus Boycott to show how people can act to get unfair laws changed. Related Lesson Plans:  What was the law?
