1 ene 1955 año - Montgomery Bus Boycott
Descripción:
Rosa Parks (an active member of the NAACP) refused to give up her seat to a white man on a bus in Montgomery Alabama and was arrested. This mobilized the African American community who boycotted all buses in Montgomery. For 13 months they walked to work. The Supreme Court ultimately ruled that buses had to completely desegregate. Also, Martin Luther King got involved with the bus boycott and this launched his civil rights activism.
