Further Explanation

This refers to movements in the United States aimed at banning racial discrimination against African-Americans and restoring their voting rights. The emergence of the Black Power Movement which took place around 1966-1975. This movement was marked by large campaigns of civil resistance.

Federal and state governments, local governments, business owners, and communities often need to respond quickly to events that highlight the injustices faced by African-Americans. Forms of protest and/or civil disobedience include boycotts such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott (1955-1956).

The most important legislative achievements during the Civil Rights Movement phase include parts of: the Civil Rights Act of 1964 [1] which prohibits discrimination based on "race, color, religion, or national origin"

Revocation of African-American suffrage took place systematically in the South from 1890 to 1908 and only ended until the passing of national civil rights laws in the mid-1960s.

At the same time as the withdrawal of African-American suffrage, white Democrats enforced racial segregation by law. Violence against blacks increased.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was founded in 1909. The NAACP struggles to end racial discrimination through litigation, education and lobbying efforts. The highlight of the NAACP's achievement was a legal victory in the Supreme Court ruling Brown v. The Board of Education (1954), which rejected the separate system of white and colored schools, and had implications for the cancellation of the "separate but equal" doctrine formed after the Plessy v. Ferguson.
