Further Explanation:-
The Montgomery bus boycott was a political as well as social protest campaign which was against the racial segregation which was taking place on the Public Transit system of Alabama. It was a seminal event during the civil rights movement. This campaign started when an African American woman was arrested as she refused to surrender her seat to a White person and this campaign lasted for 15 days. During the time when federal ruling on Browder vs. Gayle took place, this leads to the United States' decision which declared Alabama and Montgomery laws as these laws segregated that the buses were unconstitutional. Prior to the bus Boycott, there was Jim Crows law which mandated racial segregation with respect 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. In December of 1956, the Supreme Court ended the bus boycott by ruling that Alabama segregation laws were Unconstitutional.
