`What was the Bristol Bus Boycott (BBB) and why does it matter?
Bristol's Bus Boycott used a variety of strategies to achieve a political victory in a 1963 campaign against racism in the city.
Black-led campaigning made ground-breaking use of the media, as well as petitions, marches and of course the call for a “boycott”, in a
Davids and Goliath battle!
Bristol University students and lecturers joined both black and white Bristolians on marches to support the campaign.
Britain began to outlaw racial and other forms of discrimination in the wake of this Bristol 1963 campaign and other, ongoing fights for social justice that followed.
