The Bristol Bus Boycott: The Story, Impact and Legacy
Description: Back in the Britain of 1962 black people had no legal protection from discrimination or injustice. As a result organisations and employers behaved in ways that are really shocking in today’s context. An example was the Bristol Omnibus Company, the local bus company at the time. They were able, perfectly legally, to refuse to recruit black people on the basis of their race. Paul Stephenson led a pioneering campaign against the Company. This campaign caught the imagination of the local and national media and became known as the Bristol Bus Boycott. Through this campaign the students of this very university were the first in Britain to march against racism. Within 6 months the campaign was successful. It is particularly significant to note that the Bristol Omnibus Company eventually announced that it would employ black people on the 28th August 1963, the very day that Martin Luther King delivered his ‘I have a dream speech’ to the crowds in Washington Square.
Paul Stephenson did not stop his campaigning against racism with the bus boycott. He went on to challenge the Bay Horse, a public house that refused to serve black people by asking to be served and refusing to leave until he was. He was arrested and had to face a court trial. He was ultimately acquitted when it was accepted that racism was at the heart of the issue. He would hardly have believed then that nearly 50 years later, in 2007, instead of being under lock and key, he would instead be offered the keys of the city as the first black person, and only the 50th person since 1888, to be placed on the Roll of Honorary Freemen of the City and County of Bristol.
