Alabama is perhaps best renown as the birthplace of the Civil Rights movement in the 1950’s; Martin Luther King became the minister of the Dexter Avenue Baptist church of Montgomery in 1954. The next year Rosa Parks, a black seamstress, refused to give up her bus seat to a white person as required by the law and thus began the Montgomery Bus Boycott; Rosa later became known as the “mother of the Civil Rights movement”. By December of 1956 the Supreme Court ruled that bus segregation was illegal then Martin Luther King and Rosa parks became the first blacks to ride on the Montgomery Bus System and sit anywhere they pleased.
In November of 1962 Vincent Edward “Bo” Jackson was born in Bessemer; he became the only professional athlete to be named an all star in two major sports. While playing football for Auburn University in the Sugar Bowl as a senior, he was the only player able to kick a football high enough to reach the ceiling of the Superdome.
By 1965 support for the Civil Rights movement had reached a tremendous groundswell of support as Martin Luther King led a march of 3,200 blacks from Selma to Montgomery which led to the signing of the Voting Rights Act by President Johnson in August of 1965. Tragically, King was assassinated in April of 1968 in Memphis, TN supposedly by a lone gunman, James Earl Ray; there has been rampant speculation since that other people were complicit in his death.
