Riding the bus for Black individuals during the era of racial segregation was a starkly different experience compared to that of white passengers.
Why were the Blacks treated differently on the bus
Blacks were subjected to discriminatory laws and practices, often relegated to the back of the bus, separated from white passengers by the segregation policy known as "Jim Crow laws."
They were often required to give up their seats to white passengers if the front of the bus became full. This segregation on public transportation was a vivid illustration of the systemic racism prevalent in society at that time.
