The 1960s saw enormous social and political upheaval in the United States, with a period of conflict and resistance spanning from social to political spheres including the long-running battle for equality, civil rights, and equal access for all citizens.  One of the key turning points in this long civil rights struggle was the Civil Rights Movement, led by figures including Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rosa Parks, and many others, which saw widespread resistance by African American individuals and communities against entrenched forms of racial discrimination and segregation, including blocking school desegregation, discrimination in public facilities and services, and systemic disenfranchisement and political violence.  By bringing these issues to widespread public attention and organizing nonviolent resistance campaigns, leaders and participants in the Civil Rights Movement sought fundamental reform of discriminatory social institutions, and had a lasting impact on US political and social culture, contributing to key advancements in racial equality and civil rights in the United States.

Absolutely. The Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s was a nationwide movement to create legal and social justice for communities of color, most particularly African Americans. It focused on ending legal discrimination and segregation in a range of domains, including voting rights, civil rights, education, employment, and housing. Key leaders included Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks, and important figureheads were leaders of the United States government, including the then-new President John F. Kennedy. Initiated by many civil rights leaders, protests, marches, and nonviolent actions created pressure that eventually led to federal legislation in 1964 and 1965 that enforced legal equality and the end of discrimination for racial minorities. The results of the movement here in the United States include the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and The Voting Rights Act of 1965, which banned discrimination based on race and color in voting-places, employment, and housing. As well as many other social and legal gains for racial minorities. The Civil Rights Movement was and is widely considered one of the most significant and transformative social and political movements in United States and world history, and helped foster an atmosphere of equality and civil rights for many communities of color. There are many commemorative events and thanksgivings held each year
