DECEMBER 8 - AURELIA BROWDER

 Nearly eight months before Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her bus seat to a white rider - and one month after the arrest of teenager Claudette Colvin - a woman by the name of Aurelia Shines Browder Coleman was arrested for taking a stand against segregation in Montgomery, Alabama.

She was selected as the lead plaintiff in the historic 1956 case Browder v. Gayle lawsuit - a case which ultimately led to the US Supreme Court ruling that bus segregation laws were unconstitutional under the Fourteenth Amendment protections for equal treatment. She remains, to this day, and unsung hero in the civil rights movement.
