Answer:

Alabama’s segregation laws were unconstitutional.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America states that everyone has the right to equal protection, privileges of the law irrespective of one's race or color. This means that even blacks have the same rights to ride or use public transport as whites.

So, the bus boycott that resulted because of a segregated seating for blacks was deemed rightful. The Supreme Court in its December 20, 1956, ruling states that all persons, irrespective of race or color, must be given the same treatment. The court ruled Alabama's segregation laws unconstitutional and resulted in the integration of Montgomery buses the next day.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
