The Birmingham boycott was primarily led by civil rights activist Fred Shuttlesworth, who was a key figure in the Birmingham Civil Rights Movement. He worked alongside other prominent leaders, including Martin Luther King Jr. and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), to challenge racial segregation in Birmingham, Alabama. The boycott aimed to protest against discriminatory practices in local businesses and to demand equal rights for African Americans.

Rosa Parks was the catalyst for the Montgomery Bus Boycott of 1955-1956.
Rosa Parks made history in 1955 when she refused to give up her seat on a segregated bus for a white passenger. She was arrested, and the Montgomery black community launched a bus boycott that lasted more than a year. As a result, Montgomery's buses were desegregated on Dec. 21, 1956.
