Civil Rights Moves North Lesson Starter: List as many features of a ghetto as you can.

Today we will: Examine the problems facing Black Americans in northern cities. Explain why the Black Panthers Party and the Nation of Islam would be appealing to these people.

Impact of the “Great Migration” As Black Americans moved North, the demand for cheap housing grew. Areas in which many Black Americans stayed became run down due to lack of investment and crooked landlords. Black Americans faced major difficulties when trying to break the vicious cycle of poverty.

Race Riots 1965 – Watts (an area of LA) erupted into a riot. Black Americans fought the Police, whom they considered to be the enemy. Poverty, unemployment and violent police actions led to a riot that lasted 6 days. 34 were killed, 900 wounded and 4000 arrested.

Importance Watts was the first of many riots. MLK attempted to spread a non-violent message. Young Black Americans shouted at him and heckled him. They were drawn to the ideas of Black Power.

Thinking Task Why were young Black Americans in large cities drawn more to violent protest than non-violent?

The Chicago Plan – January 1966 Chicago is the most racially segregated large city in the nation. This has to change!

Non-violent protest would be used in Chicago to see if would work in the North. Fair housing was a major issue as the Mayor and landlords were accused of keeping Black Americans out of White suburbs (and away from the best housing).

Marches were held in white-only areas. The marchers were met by violent mobs. A march of 350 was met by a mob of City leaders agreed to meet with MLK.

Chicago Riots However, fair housing was not the only issue. After the police confronted a group of Black youths, a fight broke out. Sniper fire, petrol bombs and stoning of city firemen took place the following night.

Results Civil Rights Act (1968) contained a Fair Housing Act banning discrimination based on race, colour, gender or religion. Riots weakened MLK’s influence – if he couldn’t stop riots and make a difference in the ghettos perhaps he was no longer needed.
