March on Washington and “I Have a Dream”

On August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered a profoundly impactful speech during a significant march in Washington, D.C. This event played a crucial role in galvanizing public support for civil rights legislation, ultimately contributing to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. It is regarded as one of the largest rallies for human rights in United States history and stands as a defining moment in the struggle for civil rights, highlighting the urgent demand for equality and justice.

Back to event

The Greensboro Sit-ins, which began on February 1, 1960, involved college students from North Carolina A&T State University, including notable figures such as Ezell Blair Jr., David Richmond, Franklin McCain, and Joseph McNeil. They staged a nonviolent protest by sitting at a segregated Woolworth's lunch counter and refusing to leave when denied service. This act of civil disobedience sparked a wave of similar protests across the country, ultimately leading to the desegregation of lunch counters and other public facilities. The sit-ins were significant in energizing the Civil Rights Movement, demonstrating the power of nonviolent protest and youth activism in the fight against segregation.
