The last time I saw Martin Luther King Jr. alive was at Septima Clark's house. While many consider Rosa Parks to be the "mother of the movement," King actually gave that designation to Septima Clark. She was the one who taught Rosa Parks and guided so many others. It is upon her shoulders which we stand as we continue the fight for equity today. | James E. Clyburn

Rosa Parks didn’t act alone. Before the Montgomery Bus Boycott, she was mentored by Septima Poinsette Clark — a teacher and civil rights strategist who trained thousands of Black Americans to read, organize, and register to vote. Known as the “Mother of the Movement,” Clark built the Citizenship Schools that powered grassroots activism across the Jim Crow South. This is the story of the woman who helped build the people who changed America. #history #blackhistory #historyfacts #Southcarolina #gu
