GTA to join national tribute to Rosa Parks

On the 50th anniversary of her historic refusal to give up her seat to a white rider on a Montgomery, Ala. bus, the Greensboro Transit Authority will join transit agencies across the country Thursday in a tribute to Rosa Parks.

Parks died in October at age 92.

As part of the tribute, bus drivers will wear black armbands, and a ceremony honoring Parks will be held at 6 p.m. at the J. Douglas Galyon Depot at 234 E. Washington St.
