Answer:

Atlanta is more of the a instigator and Dedroit is more of an add on person. In other words, Atlanta is the start of the movement, while Dedroit added on.

Step-by-step explanation:

Atlanta is famous for being “the cradle of the Civil Rights Movement." From 1940 to 1970, the city became the important as black leaders fought for voting rights and better education for African Americans.

Detroit is famous for "The Walk to Freedom". It was a huge march during the Civil Rights Movement in 1963. Protestors have estimated to be 125,000 or more and was called the largest civil rights march in US' history that day.
