Robert Fox (activist) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Robert Fox (activist)
Robert Fox sparked a civil rights battle in Louisville, Kentucky, in the late 19th century. ==Activism career==
In January 1871, Robert Fox boarded a streetcar, dropped his money into the fare box and sat down in the white section of the car. Ordered to move, he refused; the driver then threw him off the car. Shortly after, Fox filed a charge of assault and battery against the streetcar company in federal court, claiming that separate seating policies based on race were unlawful and the driver's actions were therefore improper. A jury found the company rules to be invalid and awarded damages of $15 to Fox.
