The Montgomery Bus Boycott, led by Martin Luther King, Jr., was a pivotal event in the Civil Rights Movement, challenging racial segregation.
The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a political and social protest campaign against racial segregation on the Montgomery public transit system, initiated after Rosa Parks' arrest for refusing to give up her bus seat to a white man. Led by Martin Luther King, Jr., the boycott lasted from December 1955 to December 1956, resulting in a Supreme Court decision declaring the segregation laws unconstitutional.
