The Freedom Rides, which took place in 1961, were a series of bus trips organized by civil rights activists to challenge segregation in public transportation across the southern United States. Integrated groups of riders, both black and white, traveled together on Greyhound and Trailways buses, aiming to test and enforce the Supreme Court's rulings against segregation in interstate travel. They faced violent opposition and hostility in several Southern cities, leading to arrests and brutal attacks, which drew national attention and support for the Civil Rights Movement. The Freedom Rides ultimately helped to highlight the pervasive racism in the South and contributed to the push for civil rights legislation.
