rosa parks who was the secretary to the montgomery branch of the naacp. she was also the youth director, and i had known her from the time i was in at alabama state. so with those, we ended up opening up the office, and mrs. parks assisted in that. i found out that she was working in the department store, a block and a half from where my office was located. we talked every -- she would usually bring a little lunch to my office during the middle of the day, and i didn't have any clients at that time. we talked about problems. we talked about the buses. we talked about if a person had a problem and was asked to get up off the seat, what they should do, if they didn't want to do it. and then it was only about six months after i started practicing, that claudette, the 15-year-old girl, who lived the northeast section of montgomery, was arrested while refusing to get up and give her seat to a white person. when she did that, her parents didn't know anything about me because i'd only been back for six months, but their preacher knew about ed nixon, and they had

i came back home, lived on the west side of montgomery.as going to attend alabama state college for negroes. that's what it was then. it is now alabama state university. it's on the east side of town. so i had to then ride this public transportation system, the montgomery city line. i would have to walk about three or four blocks to where the bus stop was, and then we would go on the bus, from the west side of town, through downtown, to the east side of town, where alabama state -- so i became in touch with riding the buses. i found a lot of our people -- while i didn't have any problems myself, there were many people who were mistreated on the buses. the first 10 seats were always reserved for white people. and if there weren't enough for those first 10 seats, then they would have the rest of them, the black people would be asked -- the bus driver would ask the ones in the first four seats to get up, and they would have to get up, and sometimes they would take your money in the front. you have to go back out and get in the back so you wou

>> yes. >> mayor reed, the first african-american to serve as the mayor of montgomery, i left montgomery and came to tuskegee because i could not get what he was able to do almost 60 years later. but he came up here after he was mayor and asked you but i thought the city of montgomery could do as a tribute to the work that i had done. i lived on a street. when i grew up and before i went to loss go, i did not know who jefferson davis was. i knew it was the street i grew up on. i lived there from 1936 until 1956. i thought that street, if it was named after me, it might be an encouragement to some other boys and girls who lived in the ghetto in my camry. he got to work on that -- in montgomery. he got to work on that. i never thought that the president of the confederacy was the name of it. it was just the street that i lived on. they are working on it. whatever they do, i certainly appreciate it. >> that is a pretty incredible story, given your career and your commitment. one last question for you. we have seen incredible change, in your lifetime, you have influenced that change. in the

for 381, the black people in montgomery refused to take public transit. instead, they set up an alternative carpool system that they run by themselves. but that of course, cost money to georgia. gilmore finds a way to raise a ton of cash to keep the boy kept going. she rallied black women in montgomery to cook meals or baked dessert like peach parts, and seldom to fund the carpet. but the cooking and baking with all the covert operation, ga gilmore, had to keep the identity of her fellow cook secret. because there was a chance there, white employers might fire them. and when people asked where the money came from, they would just say nowhere. so they came to be known as well, the club for nowhere. now here's what's ironic, sometimes white alabama who supported segregation would actually be the ones buying the pies. and so in a sense they were unknowingly supporting the civil rights. nobody wouldn't really understand that she was baking for cause delicious law. anyway, the boy leads to the supreme court ruling. the segregation on buses is unconstitutional.

specifically during the montgomery bus boycott. let's re one in december 1955 rosa parks refuses to vacate receipt for a white man on a bus. and montgomery, alabama, and the police arrest her because back then, buttons are segregated, meaning they're separate sections for white people. and black people per rest mobilizes the black community, and sparks the montgomery bus boycott led by doctor martin luther king junior. for 381 days black people in montgomery refused to take public transit. instead, they set up an alternative carpool system that they run by themselves, but that of course, cost money to georgia, gilmore finds a way to raise the ton of cash to keep the boy going. she rallies black women and montgomery to cook meals, or make dessert like peach pie, and sell them to fund the car. with the cooking and baking, with all the covert operation, ga gilmore had to keep the identities of her fellow cook secret because there was a chance the white employers might fire that. and when people asked where the money came from, they wo

this was the moment that bill cosby walked out of the montgomery county correctional facility. it came after a ruling of pennsylvania's high court, that threw out cosby's conviction, thrown out because of a technicality. cosby was convicted for drugging and assaulting andrea constand. she says he assaulted her in 2004 after she came to him for advice. today, the supreme court ruled that cosby should have never been tried because the d.a. at the time promised not to try cosby criminally. so, from prison, for nearly three years, tonight, bill cosby is back home. that slow walk with some of his advisers, making a brief appearance, cosby did, for the cameras, in front of his home. he did not make a statement. but his spokesperson and lawyers did. >> it's over. as far as we understand it. the high court, vacated the conviction. discharged him. they saw it the way we saw it, that we believed that he never should have been prosecuted. there was an agreement made. he relied on that agreement. and you can't have a system where prosecutors don't hold up their word. >> we didn't think he

and that montgomery makes the medical and personal decisions one of spears' allegations last week that spears says he's been cut off, completely, from communicating with britney and that he's done everything in his power to support and care for her. responding today, montgomery's lawyer said she's been a tireless advocate for britney and her wellbeing. and that britney's choice to marry and to start a family have never been impacted by the conservatorship while montgomery was overseeing it.s for everyone phone rings nonstop with those >>> good news for everyone whose phone rings nonstop with those annoying spam calls. today, the fcc set the deadline for all major providers to start using a new technology one that's supposed to help reduce the number of robocalls all of us get. it's called stir/shaken. it authenticates where each call comes from so that spammers can't use fake-phone numbers to trick you into thinking they're local. in just the first-five months of this year, people in the united states received nearly 22 billion robocalls according to anti-fraud company, you mail withou
