IN A MOMENT TALK TO THE MAN WHO IN 1955, PICK 2 YOUNG KING TO BECOME THAT LEADER. IT'S ALL RELATED TO THE LITTLE KNOWN CRIMINAL CASE. THE NEXT YEAR OF ALABAMA. THE KING AFTER ROSA PARKS WAS ARRESTED FOR FAILING TO GIVE UP THAT SEAT. 40,000 AFRICAN AMERICAN RESIDENTS OF MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA, BOYCOTT OF THE LOCAL BUS. THAT PART IS ALL WELL KNOW.
