Answer:

The Albany Movement intended to end all forms of racial segregation in the city, but it initially focused on desegregating travel facilities. It also formed a biracial committee to discuss further desegregation and called for the release of those jailed in earlier segregation protests.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Albany Movement began in fall of 1961 and ended in summer of 1962. It was the first mass movement in the modern civil rights era to have as its goal the desegregation of an entire community, and it resulted in the jailing of more than 1,000 African Americans in Albany and surrounding rural counties.

It did fail though due to many leaders of the national Civil Rights Movement and the media considered the Albany Movement a failure because it did not achieve many concessions from the local government.
