The statement is incorrect. Martin Luther King Jr was arrested for participating in the Birmingham campaign, among other people. This is when he wrote his famous letter from Birmingham jail. The person who was arrested for refusing to give up their seat was Rosa Parks, and this was in 1955, which is 8 years before the mentioned year.
