Montgomery
Located in South central Alabama,
Montgomery is the capital and second largest city of the state.
As of the 2000 census, the city's population was 201,568.
Montgomery was briefly, in 1861, the capital of the Confederate States of
America during the American Civil War. However, when
Virginia seceded from the Union,
the Confederacy moved their capital to
Richmond.
Many important events in the civil rights movement took place in
Montgomery.
Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. was pastor of the Dexter Avenue
Baptist Church in Montgomery, from
1954 to
1960.
Rosa Parks' refusal to give-up her bus-seat to a white man,
also took place in Montgomery, and this led to the 382-day Montgomery
Bus Boycott which eventually persuaded the city to desegregate its transit
system.
