The Montgomery Bus Boycott, initiated in 1955, was a pivotal event in the Civil Rights Movement, sparked by Rosa Parks' refusal to give up her bus seat to a white man. Key figures included Martin Luther King Jr., who emerged as a leader through the boycott. The boycott effectively demonstrated the power of nonviolent protest and led to a Supreme Court ruling that desegregated public buses in Montgomery. This event exemplifies the six principles of nonviolence, showcasing how collective action and the commitment to justice can lead to profound societal change.
