Claudette Colvin was arrested on March 2, 1955, for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama. She was briefly jailed for her actions, but the exact duration of her time in jail was not long, as she was released later that day after her mother and a friend posted her bail. Her courageous act occurred nine months before Rosa Parks' more widely recognized protest.
