The Civil Rights Movement was a movement for racial equality and voting rights for African Americans that peaked between 1955 and 1968. African Americans organized and participated in a decade of protests, including sit-ins, marches, boycotts, and fights for legislation of equal treatment. The movement was famous for strong and charismatic leaders who believed in the power of nonviolent resistance. Despite this belief by many, protestors encountered violence and struggled to keep unity within the movement over time. The story of the Civil Rights Movement is not only one of the south, though. Leaders and protestors in the North fought for equality in housing, employment, and de facto segregation. Historians still disagree about the success of the Civil Rights Movement - while great improvements were made in race relations, the goals of the movement have not fully been achieved.
