this bleak month of March 2020 is certainly one for the history books.

But every March, including this one, we recognize women's history.

Tonight we honor Claudette Colvin, a civil rights crusader arrested for refusing to give up her seat on a bus in segregated Alabama.

Now this was before Rosa Parks did the same, sparking the history making Montgomery bus boycott.

Here's Colvin's incredible story and the surprising reason it went untold for so long.

You have heard the story, but likely didn't know this name.

Claudette Colvin was just 15 years old on March 2nd, 1955 when she refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery, Alabama, bus nine months before Rosa Parks.

When the newsroom photos as me, Why didn't I get a?

I said, Uh, history had me glued to the seats, I said.

I felt as though how are your tummy hand hand will push me down on one shoulder.

And so Jonah, true hair were pushing me down on another show between these two historical women's cutting women's I could not move our paralyzed in that sea and largely omitted from history books.

Despite her courage and boldness as a team today.

At 80 years old, she still recalls the day with clarity, remembering the exact exchange he had with the officer who tried to make her give up her seat.

And it's my constitutional right to see if you're so easy.

He had no dear addiction here, so we thought it was always if he didn't have no jurisdiction here.

Just that the Violated didn't have a seat.

The magnitude of her act of defiance didn't hit her immediately.

Not until she heard the lock of the jail cell you could hear when it keys, go click.

They lock it, she says of sitting in that jail cell that those were the longest hours of her life.

But those three hours would also change her life's trajectory.

I thought they thought people know that they were before Rosa rest were approved because without that arrest record, you would only know of roses because that was stays behind, closed up, going to the end at the two years old.

Once you get there, said a black girl, unwed dolphin could not be the first.

She I think she was the secretary and she stopped his life.

She was black, and she got on the bus before Claudette or Rosa.

Hundreds were arrested for doing the same, but it was Claudette who, along with three other women, became the first to challenge the law in the Alabama courts.

But what happened earlier this month in New York City permanent recognition off this great civil rights?

After this, In celebration of Women's History Month, Claudette Colvin finally got her do.

Getting her own way, you could say Bronx, New York, where she currently resides at the corner of East Fremont Avenue and Union Port Road.

You will now find Claudette Colvin way fitting for a woman who has paved the way for so many others.
