Rosa parks wasn't one person making a stand, she was working on behalf of a group of people that wanted to change the law and needed a case to get behind. It wasn't a spur of the moment thing, it was pre-planned and supported by many people.

In that respect, it is very similar factually, even if you find it repugnant to equate the two in any way.
