This four-page undergraduate paper examines the Civil Rights Movement of the nineteen-sixties. The author notes that this Movement originated in the late nineteen-fifties when African-Americans began organized efforts to obtain equality in education, voting, housing, employment, and other areas of American society. Throughout the nineteen-sixties, civil rights organizers conducted sit-ins, became freedom riders, and marched in Americas streets to protest against racial discrimination and prejudice. They succeeded in achieving many of their goals and demonstrated how important social change could be obtained through peaceful marches and civil disobedience strategies.
