Scenarios about 'montgomery bus boycott'

The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a pivotal 13-month mass protest against racial segregation on public transit in Montgomery, Alabama from 1955-1956. Sparked by Rosa Parks' arrest for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger, the boycott became a formative event in the Civil Rights Movement, demonstrating the effectiveness of nonviolent resistance and economic pressure. The successful protest led to a Supreme Court ruling declaring segregated buses unconstitutional and launched Martin Luther King Jr. into national prominence.
