| dc.description |
The Civil Rights era is considered by many as the most tumultuous yet empowering period for
blacks in the United States. To explain this phenomena, the course will examine the social,
political, and economic climate of the 1950s through the 1960s, and analyze how both blacks and
whites were affected. Specifically, the course will focus on various organizations and the
strategies they implemented which resulted in events such as the Brown v. Board of Education
case, the Greensboro sit-ins, and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Additionally, the course will
analyze the subtle and not-so-subtle reactions to initiatives that allowed African-Americans to
attain many of the rights and privileges that have become commonplace in today’s society. |
