The Civil Rights Movement
By Abbie and Lily
Civil Rights..
• Freedom of speech
• Rights to vote
• Due process of law
• Equal protection of the laws
• Protection from the unlawful
  discrimination
Background information..
• The African-American Civil Rights
  Movement from 1955–1968 refers to the
  social movements in the United States.
• This was aimed at outlawing racial
  discrimination against black Americans and
  restoring voting rights to them.
Background information..
• The aims of the Civil Rights Movement were
  made to include racial dignity, economic
  and political self-sufficiency (independence
  and the ability to vote etc), and forcing white
  Americans to live with black people and
  their beliefs.
North and South America
• In 1861-1865 North and South America fought
  against each other to out rule the issue of
  slavery. That white and black people should be
  treated equally and all deserve civil rights.
• North America was supportive of this issue.
• South America was highly against it.
Case Studies..
Rosa Parks and the Montgomery Bus
        Boycott 1955-1956
• She refused to give up her seat to a white American on a public bus,
  which she was then arrested, tried and convicted for disorderly
  conduct and violating local ordinance as a result of this.
• After the public heard about this incident, 50 African American
  leaders gathered and organised the Montgomery Bus Boycott to
  demand a more humane bus transport system.
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_c2lLYuYU1I
Case Studies..
  Brown V. Board of Education 1954
• The argument was based on the law of segregation.
  This law was still in place that white and black
  children were to be treated equally however, they
  were to be separated within public schools. This
  was voted against to help prevent children to live with
  the pressures that society exerts in regards to race,
  therefore having a better chance of living in democracy
  (together in future).
Brown v. Board of Education
• Greensboro was the first city in South
  America to publically announce that it would
  abide by the U.S Supreme courts Brown V.
  Board of Education.
Case Studies..
                    Sit-ins 1960
• On February 1st 1960 at Woolworth’s store in Greensboro,
  North Carolina four black students Ezell A. Blair Jr (aka
  Jibreel Khazan), David Richmond, Joseph McNeil and
  Franklin McCain from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical
  College (an all black college) sat at the segregated lunch
  counter to protest against the policy of excluding African
  Americans.
Sit-ins..
• The four students purchased small items in
  other parts of the store and kept their receipts,
  then sat down at the lunch counter and asked to
  be served. After being denied service, they
  produced their receipts and asked why
  their money was good everywhere else at
  the store, but not at the lunch counter.
Photos..                        Sit-Ins




Brown V. Board of Education




   Bus Boycott Marches
                              Rosa Parks
Post-Reconstruction Period..
•   Racial Segregation (split into white and black)
•   Disfranchisement (black people made to stop voting)
•   Exploitation (stop getting jobs, the ability to vote)
•   Violence (More violence against blacks and Latinos)
In the end..
• Due to this law placement, today’s society is still
  learning about the change in culture contrasted
  with the civil rights movement. From this law
  and enactment, we ruled out segregation and
  discrimination to anyone of racial background,
  for example Barack Obama.
