Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. became a prominent civil rights leader due to his role in organizing the 1955 boycott of segregated city buses in Montgomery, Alabama. At the time, buses were segregated and black passengers had to sit in the back and give up their seats for white passengers. Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white person and was arrested, prompting Dr. King to lead a boycott of the Montgomery buses until black passengers could sit wherever they pleased.
Montgomery bus boycott
The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a protest against segregation on public buses that lasted 381 days from December 5, 1955 to December 20, 1956. It was sparked when Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger. Local NAACP leader E.D. Nixon and WPC leader Jo-Ann Robinson helped organize the boycott by printing and distributing flyers. Over 35,000 flyers announced the boycott. Supporters organized carpools to drive people instead of using the buses. The boycott ended with new laws being passed ending segregation on buses.

The document discusses America in the 1950s and 1960s, focusing on the nuclear scare due to tensions with the USSR, the civil rights movement seeking racial equality, and issues of segregation. Given that the novel takes place in 1964 and features a white teenage girl, Lily, and her black nanny, Rosaline, some problems they may face include dealing with segregation and discrimination as an interracial duo, or encountering resistance or violence from those opposed to desegregation amid the civil rights movement.
Rosa Parks
Rosa Parks was a civil rights activist who refused to give up her bus seat to a white passenger in 1955 Alabama, violating segregation laws. Her arrest sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a 13-month non-violent protest of the city bus system led by Martin Luther King Jr. that ultimately resulted in the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that segregation on public buses was unconstitutional. Rosa Parks came to be known as the "Mother of the Civil Rights Movement" for her pivotal role in fighting racial injustice and inspiring further protests against segregation.
Racial Segregation
Racial segregation was practiced in the United States through much of the 20th century, separating public facilities, services, housing, education and transportation along racial lines. Facilities and services for black Americans were underfunded compared to those for white Americans, despite the phrase "separate but equal" being used to justify the system. The civil rights movement led by figures like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks advocated for desegregation and equal rights. Gradually, racial integration began to take hold in the US.

Racial segregation in America caused colored citizens to be discriminated against and have some of their rights taken away, making them feel trapped and despised. Simple rights like sitting wherever they wanted on the bus or drinking from any water fountain were denied. In response, people like Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. fought for equal rights and desegregation through protests and speeches advocating for rights for all. Over time, many changes have occurred, but the fight for continued progress is still ongoing.

Martin Luther King Jr. was a Baptist minister and leader of the American civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s. He believed that black and white Americans should have equal rights and be able to live together harmoniously. King led many non-violent protests against racial segregation, including the Montgomery bus boycott. His efforts helped end segregation laws and advance racial equality, though he faced opposition from those who supported the racial status quo. King was assassinated in 1968, though his message of non-violent protest continued to inspire civil rights advocates.

The Children's Crusade was a nonviolent protest march organized by James Bevel in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963. Though the children intended peaceful demonstration, police used fire hoses and dogs to disperse them, hurting some children. While initially a failure, the march shocked the country and drew attention to the need for civil rights. The Bus Boycott in Montgomery was a 381 day protest where Black residents refused to ride buses to protest segregation laws. Led by Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks, the boycott succeeded in banning bus segregation. The March on Washington brought over 200,000 Black and white participants who peacefully protested racial injustice through speeches advocating for freedom and equality.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
