| Racial hot spot. From Dec. 1955-Dec. 1956 the Black citizens of Montgomery stopped riding public busses in Montgomery. The boycott was sparked by Rosa Park's refusal to give up her seat and getting arrested. It was an important part of the Civil Rights Movement because it lasted so long, it hurt the economy, and it brought MLKjr into the national spotlight. Black cab drivers gave cheap fares to black customers, white women would give their maids rides to and from work, and people would walk up to 8 miles to and from work every day. On December 21, 1956 the boycott ends in success. At 6 am they are given the right to ride in the front of the bus. |
