Answer:

The city agreed to end segregation on city buses in mostly black neighborhoods only.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the Baton Rough bus boycott, there was a great level of segregation on city bus among the whites and the blacks. This widespread segregation was as a result of the believe that both races are never equal. When the segregation reached a given height, there was a need for them to stop hence the bus boycott in 1953.
