In this inspiring episode we celebrate the remarkable story of Irene Morgan Kirkaldy, a woman whose courageous stand against segregation helped pave the way for the Civil Rights Movement. In 1944, long before Rosa Parks' famous bus protest, Irene Morgan refused to give up her seat on a Greyhound bus in Virginia, defying the Jim Crow laws of the time. Her brave act of defiance led to a landmark Supreme Court case, Morgan v. Virginia, which struck down segregation on interstate buses and set a precedent for future civil rights victories.
