Claudette Colvin: A Pioneer in the Fight Against Segregation

On March 2, 1955, 15-year-old Claudette Colvin made history by courageously refusing to give up her seat on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama. This bold act of defiance, nine months before Rosa Parks’ iconic protest, marked a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights Movement.

Colvin’s bravery sparked widespread attention and admiration, inspiring others to join the fight against racial segregation. Her selfless actions helped pave the way for the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a pivotal campaign that ultimately led to the desegregation of public buses in the city.
