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.
Martin Luther King, Jr., led a boycott of the Montgomery, Alabama, city bus system after Rosa Parks was arrested in 1955 for refusing to give up her seat to a white man. The African-American community set up car pools and informal taxi services to transport the protesters to and from work.The boycott ended after the US Supreme Court declared segregation in public transportation unconstitutional in Browder v. Gayle, (1956). The decision led to the immediate desegregation of Montgomery buses, but many other cities resisted the Supreme Court's ruling.
Black people in the U.S. famously boycotted buses during the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which began on December 5, 1955, and lasted for 381 days. This protest was sparked by the arrest of Rosa Parks for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger. The boycott aimed to challenge racial segregation on public transportation in Montgomery, Alabama, and became a pivotal event in the Civil Rights Movement. It ultimately led to a Supreme Court ruling that declared segregation on public buses unconstitutional.
