Civil Rights Movement
Equality. Is it what we have?
Peace. The road to change.
Another thing they did were marches. Protesters would carry picket signs and sing songs for freedom. They would march through insults and even bottles being thrown at them by bystanders. They wouldn't fight back. They would march through tear gas and water cannons being fired on them. They still refused to retaliate. They would be arrested and still not fight back.
Another thing they did to change segregation on buses was to sit and ride the buses and fill up the bus so that other passengers couldn't get on.

The Movement's Groups.
A nation wide group of black people who were armed and went around neighborhoods challenging police brutality and any other act of violence against colored people.
Both of these groups helped the Civil Rights Movement in many ways. Freedom Riders got the desegregation of public transportation and the Black Panthers were able to make the streets feel safer for all colored people.
