Civil Rights Movement
Compare&Contrast.
Civil rights summary of it all.
Rosa Parks
She was a woman who felt she didnt need to be seperated from everyone else she didnt feel she had to give up her sit for a white person. She felt everyone was the same in her eyes and nothing would make a difference not even the skin color of somebody. Rosa Parks made a stand she made a stand to fight for what she felt was right knowing all the consquinces and not caring and doing it anyways.
Martin Luther King Jr
One of the best speakers and fighters for getting everyone to be equal and treated right and no longer treated like dirt just because of somebodys color.
Tommie Smith & John Carlos
The two olympic winners. Knowing they were treated differently and people didnt or wouldnt approve of what they did, they didnt care. They won the olypics at that and were the first two afican american winners too.
