supported Montgomery bus boycott
The Black Power Movement ended only in the minds of those who sought to amalgamate with those who only wanted the movement to either cease to exist, or accepted ideas and platforms that were not of their agendas and or programs.
"The long official story line of the civil rights movement runs from Montgomery to Memphis, from the 1955 bus boycott that introduced Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968) to the nation, to the final 1968 struggle where an assassin stole his life. " But the author argues this is not true about the movement.

The Civil Rights Movement did NOT end with Dr. King Jr. being killed. The Civil Rights Movement has not really ended, as people continue today to fight for racial equality. Just think about the racial tensions between African Americans and many Police Departments. "Black Lives Matter" is a Civil Rights story!
The Civil Rights movement has never ended. Some might say it died with Martin Luther King, Jr.; not so. Others might say it ended with the voting rights act or with the end of the Vietnam War draft or the rise of hip-hop or even the election of President Obama. The truth is that the struggle for Civil Rights continues to this day.
After the bus boycott (when African Americans decided not to get the busses because of the racial inequality which blacks gave up there seats for white people) the Jim Crow laws (segregation and inequality) where outlawed across America in the 60's and blacks where treated right
