He saw there, as in many other southern states, that African- Americans had to ride in the back of public buses. Dr. King knew that this law violated the rights of every African-American. He organized and led a boycott of the public buses in the city of Montgomery. Any person, black or white, who was against race separation refused to use public transportation. Those people who boycotted were threatened or attacked by other people, or even arrested or put into prison by the police. After 382 Days of boycotting the bus system, the Supreme Court （最高法院） declared that the Alabama state race separation law was unconstitutional.
