The ruling that desegregated the buses in Montgomery was the U.S. District Court's decision in Browder v. Gayle on November 13, 1956. This landmark case declared that the segregation laws governing the city's public buses were unconstitutional, effectively ending racial segregation in Montgomery's public transportation system. The ruling came as a result of the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which was initiated after Rosa Parks' arrest for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger. The decision was upheld by the Supreme Court on December 20, 1956, leading to the desegregation of buses.

Martin Luther King Jr.
The integration of Montgomery's buses, following the Montgomery Bus Boycott led by figures like Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr., resulted in the desegregation of the city's public transportation system. In 1956, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that segregation on public buses was unconstitutional, leading to the end of discriminatory practices. This landmark victory not only improved conditions for African Americans in Montgomery but also energized the broader Civil Rights Movement across the United States.
In economic terms, a boycott is a refusal to buy a good or service. Think of Rosa Parks and the Public Transportation System (buses) of Montgomery Alabama.
An organised group determined NOT to use the buses in Montgomery.
