14 juill. 1955 - Montgomery Bus Boycott (1955–1956)
Description:
The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a pivotal event in the early years of the American civil rights movement. Sparked by Rosa Parks' refusal to give up her bus seat to a white man, the boycott lasted for 381 days and led to a Supreme Court ruling declaring segregation on public buses unconstitutional. This successful nonviolent protest, with leadership from figures like Martin Luther King Jr., demonstrated the power of collective action in the fight against racial injustice.Ajouté au bande de temps:
