The NAACP stands for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Many of the people who took place in the Montgomery Bus Boycott were active members in the NAACP. For example, Claudette Colvin and Ralph Abernathy were both civil rights activists, and contributed to the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Claudette Colvin refused to give up her seat along with an elderly black woman. When the bus driver called the police, the elderly woman gave up her seat, but Claudette refused to be tormented as such. Claudette's determination and perseverance lead to her arrest, but contributed to the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Ralph Abernathy conducted the first meeting to protest against bus segregation (as a result of Rosa Parks' arrest) on December 1,1955. Ralph did Justice to the NAACP by organizing the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Many decisions contributed to the advancement of African American rights. The sacrifice of so many people allowed America to prosper from being, once a segregated country, to a country of diversity.
