The Triumphs of a Crusade

Riding for Freedom Freedom Riders Tested the Supreme Court decisions banning segregated seating on interstate routes and segregated facilities in bus terminals. Bus companies refused to bus CORE members any further. New SNCC volunteers rode into Birmingham where they were beaten by police officers.

Arrival of Federal Marshals In Montgomery, men carrying lead pipes and bats met the freedom riders with no police present. President Kennedy arranged to give the freedom riders direct support by sending 400 US marshals to protect them.

Heading Into Birmingham Birmingham, Alabama was considered to be the most segregated city in the United States. Rev Shuttleworth invited MLK Jr to help desegregate the city. MLK Jr. was arrested along with others during the first demonstrations. After posting bail, MLK continued to lead demonstrations and protests. “Badge of Honor”

March on Washington The dream of equality On August 28, 1963, more than 250,000 people-including- 75,000 whites organized on the nation’s capital. Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech.

Civil Rights of 1964 Prohibited discrimination because of race, religion, national origin, and gender. Gave the citizens the right to enter libraries, parks, washrooms, restaurants, theaters, and other public accommodations.
