The activists honored at an event on Monday included “Elizabeth Jennings Graham, whose work led to the eventual desegregation of all New York City transit systems, Rosa Parks, a civil rights icon best known for her pivotal role in the Montgomery bus boycott and John Mott Drew, an American entrepreneur who formed the John M.
