The African-Americans that lived in Montgomery, Alabama staged a nonviolent protest in the form of a boycott of the Montgomery Bus System. As a result of this nonviolent protest (and the US Supreme Court decision Browder v. Gayle, (1956)), African-Americans were allowed to sit anywhere they wanted on a bus. This effort was a great victory for Dr. Martin Luther King's philosophy of nonviolent protest to change the norms of society that had existed in the South.

What changes did the supreme court make after the Montgomery Bus Boycott was finished?

On November 13, 1956, the Supreme Court upheld the district court's ruling. This victory led to a city ordinance that allowed black bus passengers to sit virtually anywhere they wanted, and the boycott officially ended December 20, 1956. The boycott of the buses had lasted for 381 days. Martin Luther King, Jr. capped off the victory with a magnanimous speech to encourage acceptance of the decision. The Montgomery Bus Boycott also had ramifications that reached far beyond the desegregation of public buses and provided more than just a positive answer to the Supreme Court's action against racial segregation. The Montgomery Bus Boycott reverberated throughout the United States and stimulated the national Civil Rights Movement.
