阿拉巴馬(Alabama) 罷車運動 (Bus Boycott)
在1955年12月1日,羅沙·帕克斯這位非裔美國婦女、在阿拉巴馬蒙哥馬利郡,因為拒絕讓座位給白人,違反當地法律而被逮捕,幾天之後蒙哥馬利郡的黑人社區開始了一場罷車運動。
什麼是抵制運動?
抵制運動就是一群人拒絕參與或使用某樣東西,作為表達不贊同意見的方法。
因為許多黑人平常都搭乘巴士,所以這項罷車運動造成巴士系統很大的收入損失。
On Dec 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks, an African-American, refused to give up her seat on the bus to a white passenger, as local law required. She was arrested. A few days later the black community in Montgomery began a bus boycott.
What's a boycott?
A boycott is when a large group of people refuse to take part in, or make use of, something as a way of showing their disapproval.
Because so many black people rode the bus, a boycott would cause the bus system to lose a lot of money.
