Former NAACP Branch Secretary Rosa Parks’ refusal to yield her seat to a white man sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the modern civil rights movement.

By the 1960s, a generation of white Americans raised in prosperity and steeped in the culture of conformity of the 1950s had come of age. However, many of these baby boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) rejected the conformity and luxuries that their parents had provided.

Material culture blossomed, and at the end of the decade, 70 percent of American families owned washing machines, 83 percent had refrigerators or freezers, and almost 80 percent had at least one car.

The black civil rights movement in the United States has gone down in history as an example of a heroic struggle against flagrant injustice. Indeed, people who opposed racial segregation were not brave enough, and many of them, including Martin Luther King, paid their lives for their beliefs. However, the success of the movement was due not only to the personal qualities of fighters for equality, but also to purely economic reasons. Moreover, when the demands of black Americans went beyond economic feasibility, the Black movement began to suffer defeat and significantly weakened. It all started with the fact that yesterday's slaves were given freedom and immediately were subjected to depriving it..

In December 2016, the 60th anniversary of the victory of the Montgomery transport company boycott, from which the Black Civil Rights Movement began, was celebrated.

But in the context of segregation of a black consumer, it was as if they deliberately made him hate a store, a product, a manufacturer, a seller, and a country in which his human dignity was humiliated daily.
