Question

What was happening in the civil rights movement at the time ?

Answer 1

Answer: Civil Rights Movement was to abolish slavery

Step-by-step explanation:

The Civil rights movement which happened around 1954 to 1964, was a movement to abolish slavery in the United States for Black Americans. Now, before the right movement happened whites sold, bought black people to do things for them. Black Americans wanted equal rights for them and be treated like the American people.

Answer 2

Through nonviolent protest, the civil rights movement of the 1950s and '60s broke the pattern of public facilities' being segregated by “race” in the South and achieved the most important breakthrough in equal-rights legislation for African Americans since the Reconstruction period (1865–77).
