In this hands-on and engaging lesson, students investigate five major Civil Rights Movement protests to understand the different methods of protests used to gain civil, political, and economic freedoms for African-Americans.
There are five major protests organized in stations: the Montgomery Bus Boycott, the Greensboro Sit-Ins, the Freedom Riders, the Little Rock Nine, and the March on Washington. Integrated into stations are events that led to these protests, such as the organized march in 1941 by A. Philip Randolph, the court rulings of Morgan v. Virginia, Brown v. the Board of Education, Browder v. Gayle, and Boynton v. Virginia. Also integrated are major events such Claudette Colvin and Rosa Park's refusal to give up their bus seats and the publication of Martin Luther King's memoir, Stride Toward Freedom. Students navigate between the engaging material to complete a hands-on timeline activity where they learn more about the major events and what inspired each to take place.
A final student prompt is also included to highlight the powerful use of protest in the Civil Rights Movement. Teacher instructions and a teacher key are also included!
