The Movement Takes a New Turn
The civil rights movement split in the mid-1960s due to the rise of black nationalism and calls for black power led by Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael which advocated for racial separation and black self-sufficiency rather than integration.

The tragic assassinations of MLK Jr. and RFK in 1968 further eroded hope in non-violent change and sparked riots across the country. However, the civil rights movement achieved its goal of ending legal segregation and saw more African Americans able to vote and get elected to political office, demonstrating its lasting legacy of progress toward racial equality.
