Resumen

El filme biográfico en su forma más convencional ha tenido como objetivo principal venerar las vidas y obras de ilustres hombres blancos en su consagración de figuras heroicas. Al reapropiarse de este género para celebrar el activismo de Rosa Parks, Julie Dash consigue otorgarle a una mujer afroamericana la distinción de heroína monumental, un trato poco frecuente para las mujeres negras en el cine comercial. Sin embargo, Julie Dash juega con la forma y rompe los moldes al reflexionar sobre la construcción mediática de las narrativas heroicas. The Rosa Parks Story celebra la complejidad de Parks como ser humano y activista comprometida, y la sitúa en el interior del colectivo de activistas que participaron en las revueltas por los derechos civiles en Estados Unidos. El resultado es un filme elegante, profundo y reflexivo que pone el foco sobre el papel influyente de Rosa Parks y sus «hermanas en la lucha» (Collier-Thomas y V.P. Franklin, 2001, p. 4) en un movimiento cimentado en poderosas alianzas que fueron más allá del reconocido boicot a los autobuses de Montgomery.
