Civil Rights Movement

During the Civil Rights Movement, blacks and their allies wanted three primary objectives: integrated public schools, breakup of public accommodations such as buses and trains, water fountains and restrooms, restaurants, the privileged to hike to street unmolested and perhaps the most significant, voting rights. The undemanding justice personified in these requests had waited on the margins of political life since the 1870s disloyalty of black Reconstruction by officials and their masters.


Not that advocate of black freedom was sluggish in the short-term, but some victories and defeats, mainly in the fight against killing and permissible frame-ups, these requests remained contentious and were basically unimportant. The Civil Rights Movement was significant for the United States to be able to declare itself as a free and great nation where all citizens have equal civil rights during the Cold War.

The experimentation made during the period known as ‘separate but equal’ confirmed to be a disappointment to every black Americans. They wanted to obtain equal rights that should be given to all American citizens including African-American, in effect; an individual had to have same access to all the privileges given by the government. However, this was not obtained until new set of leaders appeared from both the political body and the church.

From Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.up to President Lyndon B. Johnson who proclaimed and signed the Civil Rights Act of 1968, and many other unsung heroes that led the way to stand firm and fight against the injustice they have encountered in the United States. The Rise of the Civil Rights Movement When two members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), Rosa Pars and D. Nixon, glowed what soon became a large-scale boycott of buses and white-owned businesses in Montgomery, competitive strategy of samsung.

This is for the reason that a white bus driver arrested Parks when she declined to follow rules that obliged blacks to shift to the back of buses when no vacant seats where available for whites. In effect, the Montgomery movement inspired Martin Luther King Jr. to head a civil rights organization. Thus, by 1957, King had built his Southern Leadership Conference (SCLC) to take on the resistance of the African-American civil rights. Moreover, two major progresses in 1957 encouraged the advocates to join the civil rights movements.

The first one is the passage of a Civil Rights Act, which should be passed and approved by Congress since Reconstruction. However, it built a Civil Rights Division inside the Department of Justice as well as Civil Rights Commission that was allowed to examine racial difficulties and give solutions. The second one was President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s proclamation to hurl federal troops to Little Rock, Arkansas in order to set up order and implement a symbol of desegregation plan by acknowledging nine black scholars to the city’s all-white Central High School.
