Original Note:
FALSE. 21 February 1956 King was indicted by the Montgomery County Grand Jury for his boycott of the Montgomery City Lines, Inc. According to the State of Alabama, King & 89 others violated a 1921 statute that outlawed boycotts against businesses. The tweets are misleading. https://kinginstitute.stanford.edu/state-alabama-v-m-l-king-jr-nos-7399-and-9593
