- Principals in Alabama bus boycott.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: #PBLEM-18874 PRINCIPALS IN ALABAMA BUS BOYCOTT MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- Three ministers are among these four leaders of the three-month boycott here protesting segregation in city buses. Twenty-four clergymen will be among those tried on March 19 for allegedly violating the state’s anti-boycott law. Left to right are: The Rev. L.R. Bennett; the Rev. H.H. Hubbard; the Rev. Ralph D. Abernathy; and E.D. Nixon, president of the local NAACP. The boycott was launched in December after a Negro seamstress was fined $14 for refusing to move to the rear of a bus. Alabama state and local laws require that Negro riders be segregated in public conveyance. Protestant church groups in various parts of the country have expressed sympathy with the boycott.
