It was a boycott of the Montgomery, Alabama (not Memphis) bus system after Rosa Parks was arrested in 1955. The incident touched off a year long boycott of the bus system by the Black citizens of Montgomery. This created a lot of hardship for them because many of them had no cars and their only means of getting to work, school, and shopping was by bus. In December 1956 the Supreme Court declared Alabama's bus segregation laws unconstitutional.
She got in the front of bus which was for the white people and the back of the bus was for the black people, so she got arrested. Some bus drivers even told her to get off the bus and go through the back door of the bus because they did not want her going through the aisle in the white section.
They decided to do this because Jo Ann Robinson was an African American. African Americans were not allowed to sit anywhere they wanted on the bus. When the bus was full and a white person got on they would make a black person get up and stand up for the ride or get off if it was too crowded. There was a sign on the bus that said colored people and it was placed in the back of the bus. All the seats behind that sign was for black people and there werent many. Everytime a white family got on the bus and there was no more seats the sign would move back until there was no more seats for the black people.All the black people were standing or there was no black people on the bus at all. Until the Rosa Parks came.
Rosa parks was sent to jail because she sat in a white mans seat and refused to moved to another seat at the back because she had heavy shopping bags and there were no more seats designated for black people
Mrs. Parks had paid for the ticket and was boarding the bus when Mr. Blake told her to observe city bus regulations (Jim Crow laws) and enter the bus from the back. She exited but before she could reenter from the back Mr. Black drove off.
she wouldnt move off the seat for a black man

She didn't. Have you seen the video on youtube where she gets called a "BUS W**KER!" by Jay off inbetweeners.
No, Miranda Cosgrove do not fall off a tour bus. She just broke her ankle while she is in the bus.
'He is getting off the bus at the bus stop.'

No It Wouldnt :) it would fall and die
You stop and wait until the bus turns off their lights and the bus takes off.
Whatever color your eyes are, because I said you were the bus driver!
