Violence was met with nonviolent protest.
Days of decision – 1965 1967
This document summarizes key events in the US from 1965-1967 related to the civil rights movement, anti-war protests, and racial tensions. It discusses the Watts riots in 1965, the emergence of black power advocates like Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael, protests against the Vietnam War including draft protests and teach-ins, and ongoing urban uprisings in response to racial inequities during the "Long, hot summer" of 1966. Lyndon Johnson attempted to address racial issues through Great Society programs but faced growing dissent over the war and a fading of liberalism.
Photo Essay Racial Segregation
Racism has existed throughout history and was particularly prominent between 1750 and 1970, when people were openly segregated by skin color in many countries. In the US, black people faced targeted discrimination through policies like segregated drinking fountains and prevention from voting, enforced by groups like the Ku Klux Klan, though civil rights leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. fought against it. While racism is less overt today, some areas of the US still have few black residents, contributing to remaining ignorance and racism.

Martin Luther King, Lunch Counters, Freedom Riders, and Albany, Lewis’ Biogra...Reflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History
Today we are reflecting on the chapter in David Levering Lewis’ biography of Martin Luther King on his civil rights struggles on the sit-ins desegregating the lunch counters and the Freedom Bus Rides.
We reflect on these questions:
Why did Martin Luther King and the other ministers organize the SCLC, or Southern Christian Leadership Conference? How did the SCLC differ from the NAACP?
Why did students initiate the lunch counter protests?
How could the KKK set on fire the Freedom Buses carrying protesting white and black students? Where were the police? Why did the KKK dynamite numerous black churches?

Civil rights
The civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s aimed to end racial discrimination and inequality between black and white people in the southern United States. Black people faced segregation in public places like schools and restaurants and lacked basic rights like voting. Martin Luther King Jr. led nonviolent protests including marches and boycotts calling for equal rights for black citizens. He was assassinated in 1968 by a white man.

The civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s aimed to end racial inequality and discrimination against black people in the southern United States. Black people faced segregation in public places like schools, hotels, and restaurants as well as barriers to voting and unequal treatment under the law. Martin Luther King Jr. advocated for equal rights for black people through nonviolent protests, marches, and speeches, most notably his iconic "I Have a Dream" speech calling for a united country without racial divisions. However, the Ku Klux Klan used violence to oppose civil rights advances for black Americans, and King was tragically assassinated in 1968.
presentacion Martin Luther King 2020.pdf
Martin Luther King Jr. was a Baptist minister who became a prominent civil rights leader in the 1950s and 1960s. He grew up experiencing racial segregation but was influenced by Mahatma Gandhi's teachings of nonviolent protest. In 1955, after Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger, King launched nonviolent protests against racial segregation in Montgomery, Alabama. This included a year-long bus boycott that eventually led to the Supreme Court declaring segregation on public buses illegal. King continued his advocacy through peaceful marches and his iconic "I Have a Dream" speech at the 1963 March on Washington, working to improve conditions for black Americans and achieve racial integration and equality
Martin Luther King: Summary of Biography by David Levering Lewis
Martin Luther King: Summary of Biography by David Levering LewisReflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History
Today we will reflect on the life of Martin Luther King as told by David Levering Lewis in his classic biography.
What struck me was how violently the KKK and the white supremacists opposed civil rights and voting rights for blacks. Twice King family houses were bombed, dozens of black homes and churches were bombed, once during Sunday school, many blacks were murdered, many were beaten both by police and protesters.
The Civil Rights Era was near the dawn of the television age. What distinguished Martin Luther King from prior generations of black leaders is he was the first celebrity civil rights leader. Now when southern Sheriffs sicced their dogs and drew their clubs on protesters, everyone in America could see the blood and watch the violence in real time on their living room television sets. Martin Luther King was also a spellbinding orator, he was great television.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
