One of the organizers who helped leaflet Montgomery was Claudette Colvin’s favorite teacher, Geraldine Nesbitt. The leaflets read, “This is for Monday December 5th, 1955…. Another negro woman has been arrested and thrown into jail because she refused to get up out of her seat on the bus for a white person to sit down. Negroes have rights too…. If we do not do something to stop these arrests, they will continue. Next time it may be you or your daughter or mother.”[9]
