What is civil rights movement
• The civil rights movement was the largest social movement of the 20th century in the United States. It influenced the modern women's rights movement and the student movement of the 1960s.
• The parents of the African American children thought that their school was not treated as fairly because they were colored. They did not have the most current textbooks, not enough school supplies, and overcrowded classrooms.
2. Historical background
• Early in its history, black Africans were brought to America as slaves. They were bought and sold, like animals.
• Nearly 100 years after the Emancipation Proclamation, African Americans in Southern states still inhabited a starkly unequal world of disenfranchisement, segregation and various forms of oppression, including race-inspired violence. "Jim Crow" laws (美国针对黑人实施的 种族隔离法案) at the local and state levels barred them from classrooms and bathrooms, from theaters and train cars, from juries and legislatures.
Education
• For every $150.000 spent on white children at the "white schools" only $50.000 was spent on African American children at the "black schools."
• Although the roots of the movement go back to the 19th century, it peaked in the 1950s and 1960s. African American men and women, along with whites, organized and led the movement at national and local levels. They pursued their goals through legal means, negotiations, petitions, and nonviolent protest demonstrations.
• The civil rights movement was a mass popular movement to secure for African Americans equal access to and opportunities for the basic privileges and rights of U.S. citizenship.
