IN THIS EPISODE OF Bayou & Bullshyt, SHIKA DENISE TAKES YOU BACK TO Baton Rouge, 1953 — WHEN BLACK RIDERS SAID “ENOUGH” AND TURNED A 5-CENT FARE INCREASE INTO A FULL-BLOWN MOVEMENT. BEFORE THE Montgomery Bus Boycott EVER HIT NATIONAL HEADLINES, BATON ROUGE WAS ALREADY OUT HERE ORGANIZING, CARPOOLING, AND APPLYING PRESSURE — QUIETLY, STRATEGICALLY, AND WITH NO INTENTION OF BACKING DOWN.

WE’RE TALKING ABOUT HOW THE BOYCOTT STARTED, WHO HELPED LEAD IT, HOW THE CARPOOL SYSTEM KEPT PEOPLE MOVING, AND WHY THIS MOMENT DESERVES WAY MORE CREDIT IN THE CIVIL RIGHTS TIMELINE.
