Timeline The 1950’s was a time of the civil rights movement. This decade saw the start of the non violence protest with a robust leader Dr.King. A few racial tensions started with Linda Brown, an 8-year-old girl in Topeka, Kansas, lives within walking distance of a whites-only elementary school. Because of segregation, she has to travel by bus to a more distant school for African-American children. Her father sues the school board of Topeka, and the U.S. Supreme Court agrees to hear the case.

Timeline cont. On August 28, 1955 Emmett Till, a 14-year-old African-American boy from Chicago, is killed near Money, Mississippi, for allegedly whistling at a white woman. •In 1957 Martin Luther King helps found the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) in January. The organization's purpose is to fight for civil rights, and King is elected its first president.

Perceived Injustice The perceived injustice is the racism not only towards African Americans but the all races that weren't Caucasian. The inequalities aren't always by race they include wealth and even gender.

Actions Taken The actions Dr. King took were all non violent. Dr. king was a silent protester. He believed all people were created equally no matter if you were black , white , green , pink or purple. He believed that everybody deserved the same chances. King received the Nobel Peace Prize for his tranquil , harmonious actions and personality.

Compare and Contrast Dr. King and Thoreau were similar in their humanitarian ways. They both wanted peace and equality. There is no remedy for love but to love more. – Thoreau All men are children, and of one family. The same tale sends them all to bed, and wakes them in the morning.-Thoreau Books are to be distinguished by the grandeur of their topics even more than by the manner in which they are treated.-Thoreau

Compare and Contrast cont. A man who won't die for something is not fit to live. – Dr. King Almost always, the creative dedicated minority has made the world better. – Dr. King These quotes explain how both leaders believe in equal rights , they both believe that you should fight for what you believe in and what you know is right.

Civil Disobedience The protest of Dr. King wanting racial rights was civil disobedience because he silently protested that he wanted equal rights no matter what race your is.
