Rosa Parks upset the townspeople of Montgomery, Alabama, when she refused to give up her seat to a white passenger on a segregated bus on December 1, 1955. Her act of defiance was a violation of the city's segregation laws, prompting her arrest. This courageous stance sparked outrage among segregationists and ignited the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a pivotal event in the American Civil Rights Movement, leading to widespread protests against racial discrimination.
