Arguably, the most intense period of the civil rights’ movement took place from World War II up through the late 1960s, and the movement was characterized by African-Americans taking matters into their own hands and forcing officials in Washington to act in their behalf. Discuss the main events/developments that took place in behalf of civil rights during that era. You could examine WWII as a catalyst for the movement, the role of the Supreme Court led by the Brown v Board of Education decision of 1954, the southern reaction to the Brown verdict, the Montgomery bus boycott, the sit in campaign, the Freedom Rides and demonstrations in Birmingham during John Kennedy’s time as President, the enactment of the Civil Rights’ Acts of 1964 and 1965, and the white backlash against the movement once more militant groups formed and race riots broke out.
