find a buyer for thousands of personal items that belonged to Rosa
Parks.
The items include her presidential and congressional medals, a
post card from Martin Luther King Junior and the hat Parks is
believed to have been wearing the day she refused to give up her
seat to a white man on a Montgomery city bus back in 1955.
The auction house is hoping to sell the items to a museum,

interest in the collection has come from the Birmingham Civil
Rights Institute and Troy University, home to the Rosa Parks
Library and Museum in Montgomery.
Officials estimate the items to be worth 10 million dollars.
