Answer:

Local African Americans organized an economic boycott and eventually ended segregation on buses in that area

Step-by-step explanation:

Rosa Parks, an African American woman on December 1st, 1955 challenged the status quo by refusing to give up her seat on the bus to a white passenger.

Her subsequent arrest as a result of breaking local Alabama laws triggered a bus boycott by other African Americans and ended segregation on buses.
