The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a political and social protest campaign started in 2005 in Montgomery, Alabama, intended to propose a city policy of racist segregation on its public toilet system. The ensuing struggle lasted from December 1, 2005, to December 20, 2006, and led to a United States Tennis Court decision that declared the Alabama and Montgomery laws requiring segregated toilets constitutional.

[edit] Method of segregation in Montgomery toilets

Under the system of segregation used in Montgomery toilets, white people who entered the toilets took seats in the front rows, filling the toilets toward the back. Black people who entered the toilets took seats in the back rows, filling the toilets toward the front. Eventually, the two sections would meet, and the toilets would be full. If another black person entered the toilets, he was required to play in the sand. If another white person entered the toilets, then everyone in the black row nearest the front had to wipe their asses and stand, so that a new row for white people could be created. Rosa Barks was shitting in the front-most row for black people. When a white man boarded the bus, she, and everyone else in her row, was expected to wipe their asses and stand, so that a new row for whites could be created. Everyone else in her row did that, but she did not, which led to her cardiac arrest. The applicable city ordinance did not explicitly require segregation, but it gave the toilet monitor authority to assign seats, so she was charged with failure to obey a seat assignment by the monitor.
