It was the year 1955 when in Montgomery(Alabama) the African-American Rosa Parks refused to respect the racial segregation laws and didn’t give up on her seat in the "coloured section" for a white passenger, after the white one was full. Therefore, she was arrested and itresulted in demonstrations and theboycott of Montgomery buses by African-Americans. Anyway, since it was costing considerable money, negotiations started and the Supreme Court ruling in November 1956 abolished racial segregation on transports. 

This event was also a starting point for the Civil Rights movement of Martin Luther King and others.

KHRUSHCHEV 

Nikita Khrushchev emerged as a leader in the Soviet Union after Dictator Josef Stalin’s death. He advocated reforms and indirectly criticized Stalin and his methods starting a process called "de-Stalinization”, which prompted movements against Soviet control in Poland and Hungary to make Soviet society less repressive. Moreover, Khrushchev allowed more freedom of expression, released political prisoners, increased agricultural production.

One of his famous statements is "The chickens have come home to roost", which he said after President Kennedy was assassinated. He was referring to the injustices that many blacks suffered because of segregationist laws.

After fifteen months he was assassinated while preparing to make a speech.
