equal was not equal so they 

mandated all the schools to

The Montgomery bus boycott of 

1955 was when a group of women 

had not given up their seats to a 

white person on the bus.This caused 

a lot of trouble but when the civil 

rights leaders heard about this they 

had an idea that if they just did not 

ride the buses at all the bus industry 

would plummet to an all time 

low.This caused the court to 

integrate the buses as they found 

that segregated buses was 

unconstitutional because it violated 

the 14th amendment.

Freedom riders were 13 african 

americans and white civil rights 

activist who rode buses into 

integrated south bus terminals.

These same freedom riders were hired by CORE(Congress 

of racial equality) to influence other people to join the in 

efforts to integrate the bus terminals of the deep south. 

The freedom riders group that grew rapidly started to test 

the law in numbers.Some of them sat wherever they 

wanted on buses, which was legal, and others walked into 

integrated facilities where you would not find black 

usually.Towards the end of this movement the riders saw 

success as the   Interstate Commerce Commission issued 

regulations prohibiting segregation in interstate transit 

terminals.

The Albany movement was the first massive 

movement in the civil rights movement.By this i 

meant that the movement consisted of the arrest 

of several hundred backs and the jailing of more 

than a thousand blacks. This movement also did 

not meet what king and other civil rights leader 

wanted it to. What this movement was supposed 

to do was to desegragate certein buildings that 

prviously were segragated before.

The march on washington was a march that 

included 200,000 blacks and whites in an 

effort to get more jobs available black as when 

they graduated they could not find any job 

openings.this march was most known for  

Martin Luther King's I Have dream speech.

Although it was well know for the speech, it also 

impacted all the   civil rights movement.This is 

because as a result of this march the passing of 

the civil rights of 1964 was made faster.This act 

banned the discrimination of any race,ethnicity, 

sex,color,or country of origin.
