In Advance of Trump's Mug Shot, The Washington Post includes Rosa Parks in a story of most important of those photos

 

Civil rights mug shots

Mug shots aren’t just for notorious historical figures. Many of the nation’s biggest heroes acquired them during the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s, including the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and Medgar Evers. Here, a 43-year-old Rosa Parks sits for a mug shot on Feb. 22, 1956, in Montgomery, Ala. Though famous, this photo was not taken the day she was arrested for refusing to give up her seat on the bus to a White man on Dec. 1, 1955, but a few months later when the Montgomery bus boycott was in full swing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is a life-sized statue of her on Dexter Avenue in Montgomeery, at the place she boarded the bus in which she was arrested.
