The Movement Continues By: Drew Dubin

Civil Rights Gains In this section of my page it talks about African Americans fighting for equal rights and getting the same chances everyone else gets. Some of the accomplishments that African Americans have achieved consist of ending discrimination of housing, getting Black Studies instituted in colleges, and lowering the color bar in the entertainment industry.

Unfinished work In this section of my page it talks about how discrimination has changed over the years. The public didn’t like some of the demonstrations that minorities were doing, so they decided they were more unsure about what was happening. Then the government introduced affirmative action. This was a movement to help minorities or people that have suffered discrimination receive more opportunities. After a while, people felt that the whites were now at a disadvantage, because the minorities were getting more jobs and they were being taken away from whites.

Key people Shirley Chisholm- She became the first African American woman in the United States House of Representatives. And also ran for democratic president and she controlled 152 delegates at the Democratic convention in Miami.
