In Birmingham, Alabama, Martin Luther King Jr. was arrested on April 12, 1963, during a nonviolent protest against racial segregation. His arrest was part of the Birmingham Campaign, aimed at combating systemic racism and injustice in the city. While imprisoned, he wrote the famous "Letter from Birmingham Jail," which articulated the moral imperative for civil disobedience against unjust laws. King's efforts in Birmingham ultimately contributed to the Civil Rights Movement and helped lead to the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
