The Montgomery Bus Boycott, was a seminal event in the Civil Rights Movement. It was a political and
social protest campaign against the policy of segregation on the public transportation system of Montgomery, Alabama. It started when Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat for a white male, she was arrested. Browder vs. Gayle was soon in effect. This then led up to the United States Supreme Court decision that declared the Alabama and Montgomery laws requiring segregated buses is unconstitutional.
