Paradise: Sphere 1: The Moon

Rosa Parks: was famous for not getting up from the front of the bus after a long day at work. Ms. Parks was arrested and charged for disobeying the law that blacks are suppose to sit in the back of the bus. This was a major event that lead to blacks boycotting buses by not riding them. Many blacks started to walk to work and school. The boycott was a success, because transit started to lose money and therefore allowed blacks to sit anywhere. Ms. Parks belongs in the sphere of The Moon. The Moon is the sphere that Dante placed those who were influential to a large mass of people.
