Yes, Ida B. Wells was arrested in 1884 for refusing to give up her seat to a white man on a train in Tennessee. Her defiance of segregation laws led to her being forcibly removed from the train and subsequently jailed. This incident fueled her activism against racial discrimination and helped to shape her career as a journalist and civil rights advocate.
