A couple months after Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on the bus to a white man Martin Luther King Jr. decided to stand up and help in the fight. He entered as an inspirational person who created organized and non violent resistances and protests. By doing this he also sadly made himself a target for white supremacists who fire bombed his home. After the first boycotts success Martin Luther King Jr. and some of the other civil right activists helped join him in creating the SCLC, Southern Christian Leadership Conference. The group's main goal was to find FULL equality for African Americans using nonviolent methods. Martin Luther King Jr. remained the leader of this conference until his eventual death.
