Answer 1

These efforts were generally called the "Freedom Rides." The Freedom Rides were a series of bus trips taken by civil rights activists in the early 1960s to challenge the segregation of public transportation in the southern United States, particularly in response to the Supreme Court's ruling that segregation in interstate bus travel was unconstitutional. The rides began in 1961 and were organized by groups such as the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). The activists faced violent opposition and arrests, drawing national attention to the civil rights movement and the struggle against segregation.
