Civil Rights Movement

The Civil Rights movement was a separation of black and whites such as separate dinning rooms, restaurants, drinking fountains, ect. This lead to Civil Rights groups such as SCLC, SNCC, and eventually the Civil Rights acts. This was a interesting time for America as things were changing, people were able to speak out about what they believed such as Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. and people were listening and demanding freedom. I think figures like Malcolm X and MLK were speaking in a way that even white people agreed with and they knew that they had to be good examples so people would take their words seriously, I think that was very important as they wanted to create unity between the races.
