From Rosa Parks: My Story

How does the following passage add to the development of the author’s account (paragraph 12)?

“I asked if I could make a telephone call and they said, “No.” Since that was my first arrest, I didn’t know if that was more discrimination because I was black or if it was standard practice. But it seemed to me to be more discrimination.”

The police had to later throw out the charges against Parks because they did not grant the appropriate rights.

The phone call was the final straw before Parks finally lost her cool on the police officers.

Parks thinks that things inside jail that day would have gone different if she had been allowed to make that call to the NAACP.

Parks is pointing out that the culture of unfair treatment against African Americans was so commonplace that she had come to expect it.
