Rosa Parks and the Montgomery Bus Boy
This picture shows how the boycott was working
Room 01
On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a White man. Shortly after her arrest, African Americans started a boycott. They boycotted the buses. After a while, the buses were empty, meaning the boycott was working. This was important because it led to a Supreme Court ruling that segregation on city/local buses was unconstitutional.
This picture represents civil disobedience. It goes with Rosa Parks and the Montgomery Bus Boycott because Rosa Parks did something she was not supposed to do, which was refuse to give up her seat.
This was when the Supreme Court ruled that segregation on city/local buses was unconstitutional.

MLK and Malcolm X wanted the same thing, Black equality, but were different at the same time. MLK Jr. didn’t want to use violence and wanted peace between Whites and Blacks, but Malcolm X wasn’t afraid to use violence if he needed to.
The Black Power Movement and Malcolm X
The Black Power was formed in the 1960’s and 1970' s. It led to gaining racial equality, even if that meant violence, and clasping being black. Malcolm X had a strong belief in equality and race pride and wasn’t afraid of using violence to get it.
This picture represents people protesting for Black Power. Black Power was inspired by Malcolm X's belief that Blacks should have power in their communities and in the world.
This image shows how many people agreed with Malcolm to fight for equality. It shows that he had a following. Many people looked up to Malcolm to get the freedom they deserved.
