Discrimination And Racism During The Civil Rights Movement

156 Words1 Pages
Unfortunately, Blacks had dealt with different levels of discrimination and racism which created the struggles and challenges for civil rights. I also mentioned this in my post too, Laura, that desegregation was a huge problem and caused demonstrations for racial equality. An example would be Rosa Parks, who refused to give up her seat while riding the bus. You mentioned in your post that African Americans faced many different aspects of racism. Did blacks also have to fear at looking at a white person the wrong way as did African Americans? I also got the same impression that the North and South faced different kind of racism. With that said, Laura, did the south become more violence due to the fact of different racial class or groups in the region? I could not even imagine what people had to go through during the civil rights movement. What other thoughts may have triggered such tensions and violence?
