The casket of Rosa Parks at the U.S. Capitol rotunda

Representative Conyers introduced Concurrent Resolution 61, which received approval on October 29, 2005, allowing Parks's remains to lie in state at the United States Capitol rotunda from October 30 to October 31.[158] Her remains were transported to the rotunda by the United States National Guard. 40,000 mourners came to pay their respects.

Parks was the 31st individual, and the second[f] private citizen, to be laid in state.[159] A public memorial was also held at the Metropolitan AME Church before her remains were returned to Detroit.[160]

In Detroit, Parks's casket was displayed at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History. A memorial service was held at the Greater Grace Temple on November 2.

An honor guard accompanied Parks's casket via horse-drawn carriage to the service, where soul singer Aretha Franklin performed. After the service, a white hearse conveyed Parks's remains to Woodlawn Cemetery, where she was interred in a mausoleum alongside Raymond and her mother.[162] The chapel was renamed the Rosa L. Parks Freedom Chapel in her honor[163]

Legacy and honors

In the American school curriculum, Rosa Parks' story is taught as a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement.[164] Initiatives like the Zinn Education Project have developed modern educational materials to help teachers present a more complete and radical picture of Parks' life to students.[165]
