What happened when black people stopped riding the buses in Montgomery?

History
2 answers:
Lera25 [3.4K]3 years ago
6 0
40,000 black bus riders boycotted the system. Many black leaders met to form the MIA (Montgomery Improvement Association). The group elected MLK as president and they continued their boycott, until the city met their demands. Evidently they did not. So, black leaders organized carpools and African American taxi drivers charged 10 cents (the same to ride a bus) to African Americans. But, many African Americans decided to walk until change was given. Eventually on June 5, 1965 Montgomery federal court ruled any law that racially segregated seating on buses violated the 14th amendment. The city appealed to the US Supreme Court and finally on December 21, 1965 Montgomery buses were integrated.

Answer:

Explanation:

The Hessians were German mercenaries. Stark is saying that they are on a hill that he and his comrades will take and if they don't his wife will be a widow. In other words, it means that the victory will come to the Americans or they will die trying.

The Americans had more at stake. If they were defeated they would be hung for treason. In their minds, George III was a tyrant who would not listen to them. Nor would he dispense Justice.

Mr. Butler says that the Great Depression affected him more than the Civil War because for him it the end of the country of the opportunities.

This were the matters that really affected him instead of the war itself.
