The Baton Rouge bus boycott of 1953 had a lasting impact on the civil rights movement in Louisiana. In one paragraph, describe both the causes and the effects of the boycott. Your response should include supporting details in the form of facts, quotations, and examples.

Segregation on buses was not ended by the Baton Rouge Bus Boycott, but it did demonstrate that peaceful, well-organized, and well-supported grassroots protests could be successful in the Deep South. Both the American Civil Rights Movement and Louisiana's segregation laws were significantly impacted by the Baton Rouge bus boycott.

African-American residents of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, started the Baton Rouge bus boycott on June 19, 1953, in an effort to integrate the city's transportation system. Early in the 1950s, black people made up roughly 80% of those who used municipal buses, but because of Jim Crow laws, they were required to sit in the back of the vehicle, even when the front seats were vacant.

After the integration ordinance was invalidated, Rev. T. J. Jemison assisted in putting together the United Defense League and a bus boycott. The boycott came to an end six hours later when Ordinance 251 was adopted by the city.

The last two seats on the bus were set aside for African-Americans under the new law, which gave the first two seats to white people. The chairs in between might be filled by people of any race.

Therefore, the boycott had a very less impact on the city's transportation system and was actually a civil rights movement.

In the early spring of 1940, the US military faced a seemingly insurmountable task. With Poland overrun by German armored columns now poised to strike at France, and China under assault by Japan, America’s commanders had to prepare the US military for war. The problem was not a dearth of troops—after Adolf Hitler’s blitzkrieg rolled through Poland in September 1939, Congress had mobilized the National Guard and Reserve and approved an increase in the size of the Army. It was that the existing troops were poorly trained or not trained at all.

No one was more acutely aware of this than Army Chief of Staff General George C. Marshall. A student of history, Marshall was certain American boys were as courageous as any German or Japanese soldier, but they lacked sufficient training and combat experience—and time was short. Marshall concluded that what America’s burgeoning ranks needed was a complex training exercise, an exacting test in an environment that would closely approximate the realities of the battlefield.

—“Louisiana Maneuvers” by Mark Perry

What was General Marshall’s biggest concern about the US Army in 1940?

There were not enough soldiers enlisted in the military.
Most soldiers had received little preparation on how to fight a war.
There was no land available to complete combat training exercises.
American troops were already struggling in the fight against Germany.

By the year________, there had been an increase of one slave and one free state each.
