The Baton Rouge Bus Boycott, which began on June 19, 1953, ended on June 25, 1953. African American residents protested segregated seating on public buses, leading to a compromise that allowed for more equitable seating arrangements. This boycott served as a model for the more famous Montgomery Bus Boycott and demonstrated the power of organized, nonviolent protest in the fight for civil rights. Wikipedia
