The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a massive boycott of the public busing system in Montgomery, Alabama, after Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to move from the grey area on board a public bus. The boycott lasted just over a year and resulted in a Supreme Court verdict declaring Alabama's segregated transit laws unconstitutional.
