It made Rosa Parks famous for her fight for civil rights.
<u>Further Explanation:-
</u>
<u>The bus boycott of Montgomery was a political and social protest campaign that was against the racial segregation which was taking place on the public transport system in Alabama</u>. This campaign started when women from the African American community got arrested and the charges framed on her were that she refused to give the seat to a white person and this campaign lasted for 15 days.
This event was followed by the Montgomery bus boycott throughout the United States against racial segregation with regards to public facilities and the Supreme court ruled Montgomery bus service as Unconstitutional. Before the bus Boycott, there was Jim Crows law which mandated racial segregation to the Montgomery bus line. Because of that law, The African Americans were not hired as the drivers of these buses and were always told forcefully to ride on the back of the buses and not only this, they were time and again ordered to vacate their seats to the white people even though the people from Black community consisted about 75% of the bus riders.
<u>In December of 1956, the Supreme Court ended the bus boycott by ruling that Alabama segregation laws were Unconstitutional.</u> This case also made civil activist Rosa Parks famous for her fight demanding equal rights for the people.
