- History of the Civil Rights Movement
Beginning with the end of the U.S. Civil War in 1865, African Americans toiled to reach equal status in the eyes of the law. Not only that, they also struggled against abuse - both physical and mental - by racist members of society. Starting with the right to vote, and then laboring to integrate schools and other aspects of everyday life, the Civil Rights Movement made huge strides over a century of work. While the crusade may never truly be over, many considered the election of the country’s first African American President to be a turning point in the battle. In this video, www.WatchMojo.com explores the history of the United States’ Civil Rights Movement.
who else has to watch this for school?

+Louis Estrada fuck you who are you to judge me
No the fuck you're not s
Thank you for destroying America .:(
Its not over until Affirmative Action is scrapped.
I agree
I have never undeerstood racism. Like, the color of you skin does not define who you or anyone else are.
Sophie it's because white people are having bad lives and need someone to blame and hate. Unfortunately they turn on people based on the amount of melanin that they have in their skin.
Jack Landonso that is so horrible
jack, that's using racism to say people are racist
zPsychosis I'm not using racism I'm just using facts
" white people are having bad lives and need someone to blame and hate. Unfortunately they turn on people based on the amount of melanin that they have in their skin." you say white people turn on people based on the amount of melanin in their skin, which is basically skin color. you also say at the beginning white people are having bad lives and need someone to blame? wtf?

You‘re Right i think it‘s really unbelievable what he did he had the courage to take care that everyone is treated equally
I agree with you Phil, good job!!

I never understood racism, and I am happy that more and more people began to understand such simple things. we are all people so let's stick together.
Hi violetta, I´m glad that you watched it and that you like it. I think you´re an honest and caring person. Stay as you are.

Thank you for this video. Not too many mini documentaries acknowledge Malcolm X even existed LOL This one includes him. Great all round video. Good editing too.
NO NOT YOU TOO MOJO but actually wtf why was i assigned this
So many people say that they hate racism but they're also homophobic. When you think about it, racism is judging someone upon something that they cannot control, as is homophobia.
Case closed.
yeah idc
My teacher told me I should leave a comment below this video.
One of the most interesting things for me was for me to see how terrible the situation for the black people was.I can't even imagne such things happen today.
Personally, I strongly agree with the objective of this social movement. Since we all have the same rights no matter what, and it is very important that we all have access to the rights that belong to us, and not discriminate against others because of their skin color, or any other trait and / or belief. We are all human beings and we all have the right to equality, and the same rights. We need to end racial segregation, the fact that we do not all have the same skin color does not make us different or better than others, we are all equal and we all deserve to be treated equally, fairly and with respect. First of all, we need existing rights to be fulfilled, to stop violating these rights in order to combat discrimination and treat everyone in the same way that we like to be treated.
In a nation of abject racial oppression by the majority, it's wholly implausible that Dr. King acquired such power and influence unless some white supremacists secretly supported him. Could not possibly. Only in tall tales do such feats of heroism take place.
Historically, all black Southern churches were originally founded by former slaveholders. Thus no matter what line of bull Dr. King spewed to con everybody, he represented the interests of slavery proponents. Equal employment rights do not necessarily detract from this overarching mission. Slavery is a job. Sharecropping was a job. The only distinguishing factor between freedom and slavery is the amount of financial mileage one can obtain THROUGH employment.
With this in mind, civil rights policies actually have a negative financial value for blacks on an aggregate basis. The Fair Housing Act diverts market competition away from predominantly black neighborhoods. This in turn depletes black homeowners of equity, which offsets and exceeds any benefit from blacks' enhanced employment opportunities. These policies arrived on the heels of the GI Bill, which enabled white only WW2 veterans to cheaply and conveniently purchase suburban homes. When blacks began clamoring to move into these same communities, the preexisting white homeowners effortlessly made a killing.
One of King's civil rights eligibility criterion also hints at his covert campaign to rehash the slave system. In one of his speeches, he decreed that blacks' love for our oppressors should be primarily impersonal and "spiritual" in nature, as opposed to emotional or erotic. Anyone who attempts to exert such intimate personal control over another is pro-slavery. Especially if they bid to incorporate these regulations into policy.
I'm a black female who's mainly instinctively attracted to guys like my dad who is white, but I'm both too phenotypically black and too poor to merit exemption from this clause. However I'm also Otto von Bismarck's great-great-great granddaughter. No white woman's chastity and virtue is more important than mine. Not MINE it isn't.
What about that other really important thing that happened in 1955? You know, the murder of Emmett Till? That was a catalyst to the Civil Rights Movement. It's also really important. Why leave it out?
i'm black and i'm against all of that especially affirmative action but i hate to say this but neither sides are progressing, we cannot progress untill there is 100% equality, both ethnicity and genders should treat eachother equaly but that will never happen, why? Because people in general don't want equality, they want their gender or race to be dominant and hate the rest, there cannot be equality until people realise that their not all that different, but that will never happen so we're fukd
madgamer099 I'm sure you're black! Lol, since when has black people dmanded dominance?
madgamer099 this happens in America only. To be honest I am a middle eastern so this black white thing never makes sence to us. We are all the kids of adam and eve. We were all created by god and will all return to him. No one will go to hell or heaven because of their colour. We are rewarded by our acts only. We are all equal my brother, I am not better than you, no one is better because of tgeir colour or race. It is what we do that judges us.
hey um, a lot of black people got their property stolen or destroyed because of racism and segregation in the past, i personally think the best way to get all the historically oppressed people to get back what was taken from them is free college for everyone regardless of race and also welfare so that people can go to college and still be able to support themselves.
eventually black people and other historically oppressed groups will truly have equality once.
Never mentioned in the Civil Rights Movement discussion is that Atlanta was known as " The Imperial City " of the Klan in the 20th century or that Georgia's lynching total (322) led all states during the 20th century, more than Mississippi (312) but the states which has been more often spotlighted for racist violence in the 20th century are strangely enough Mississippi and Alabama despite the fact that things were worse in Georgia.
pov: Your teacher is absent and want you to watch this.
Proud of every black person who made life easier for me.
Thanks for your Information this helped me in doing my work for school
Skin color discrimination, also known as colorism, is a form of prejudice that is prevalent in many black families. This occurs when individuals are treated differently or valued more or less based on the shade of their skin. Lighter-skinned individuals are often viewed as more attractive, intelligent, and successful, while darker-skinned individuals are often perceived as less desirable and less valuable. This can have a profound impact on a person's self-esteem, mental health, and opportunities in life. Colorism is often perpetuated within families, with parents favoring lighter-skinned children or making disparaging comments about darker-skinned children. This creates a toxic environment where individuals are judged and valued based on their skin color rather than their inherent worth as a human being. It is important for individuals to recognize and challenge colorism within their families and communities, and work towards creating a more inclusive and accepting society.
I was 1 turning 2 in November when this video came out
is this the right video for social studies lol
is anyone else watching this for school?
answers?
when u live in australia but are studying civil rights of america
i even wish this lesson was spread all a round the world to see lessons on how protests work, what racism is and whicj iconic people who did such movements, i ain't american (but moved in and became a citizen since 2015 from south east asia PHL) yet this vid given me on my online class brought my love of history to know this and use this lesson to combat racism & identify it's origins & the countermeasures to it, the purpose of the movement is phenomenal.
History is my favorite favorite subject I love it. I want to learn more about the naacp, slavery, Jim Crow , & civil rights movement
Thank u MOJO! I needed this for an essay! Lol

This movement is not over until Affirmative Action is scrapped. If you are an African American read some of Thomas Sowell's work.
What movement? MLK and his civil rights movement were extremely detrimental to the black community.
Akbar Khan Exactly! He worsener it hence why its not over.
It did America good to a point. NO MORE MLK.
kingmatt2563: Oh of course you love a Negro who says blacks should not have a means of reversing white racism. Typical. If whites had been willing to work and compete with the rest of the people of America AA would not have been needed. To hell with uncle Tom Sowell.
Akbar Khan: You don't know shit about the civil rights movement! With a name like yours you need to go back to your nation and do something about it.
WE NEVER RECEIVED EQUAL RIGHTS EVER
on paper, whites and blacks have equal rights. however, it really sucks how blacks are treated differently. it I not fair at all. as a white male, I cant comment based on a first person view. but all of this, really fucking sucks. i hope it ends.
I don’t understand why we have to define people by the color of their skin, why does that matter? We’re all humans no matter the way our skin looks.
I learned this in Botswana!
That is the reason why the Civil Rights Movement lives on for years and years to come. : )
we thank GOD for Martin Luther King jr.
@Kevin Smith shut your racist ass up
Bert Man The fuck is your problem?
thank his momma for bringin him in the world not god
Imagine hating on someone that doesn't have the same skin colour
Imagine watching watch mojo
damn...crazy how mlk and malcom both played their parts yet worked together
Utterly magnificent. I'm torn between anger and rage, not for the civil rights movement, but also for the civil rights movement. The acceptance of people, black, white, or purple should be accepted. We bleed the same and are equal no matter the color. I'm filled with anger that black people were/are seen as evil, gang-bangers, 2nd class citizens, different, and less deserving. I am filled with anger that other human beings were/are discriminated for their color of their skin. That's like saying if you feel Fear or Happiness then you deserve to be treated than less-than. It's pathetic, a poor choice of an outlet to set free your emotions. Yes there are physical difference between a white man and a black man, but they still feel, think, and BLEED the same. Those thoughts, "well the black men steal" come from UPBRINGINGS. Where they are from, what they have learned, and what they have ENDURED. Far too much prejudice has been placed for the sole regard of skin color. This isn't "black and white," there are many more factors to be included. The rage I feel for someone, who can negatively treat an individual, burns brighter and stronger than hell and the sun itself. The beatings, the slurs, the outright inhumane experiences that were experienced are too difficult to describe in words. The burning passion and desire for equality will eventually outshine other difficulties, because eventually, we'll become one. Whichever religious, theoretical, or questioned belief you can think/or believe in, there will come a time where people of all skin tones come together.
rosa parks is my favorite transformer
I hate to admit it but racism is still a problem in our society today. I support Black Lives, Asian Lives, Hispanic/Latino Lives, LGBTQ+ lives, disabled lives, womens' lives, and all lives in general. I think we all should be treated equal. Isn't it ironic that a country that stands for freedom is full of racism?
Right! We read the story in our English lessons!
It is so critical face for civil rights movement
But they fight for future better to growth so I thank full for our freedom fighters jai hindh selout for our civil rights movement
Amazing video !
2019?
2021
“If you want to know where you would have stood on slavery before the Civil War, don’t look at where you stand on slavery today. Look at where you stand on animal rights.”
Paul Watson
Growing up in Albany Ga i watched poverty, crime, and famine after this movement.
2019 update: Progress has been measurable - but not linear...
2021 after last year's protests (George F & the string of police errors) and recent months of violence (covid, insurrection & anti-asian violence) and call outs later. Progress is never ending
0:35 looks hella photoshopped
“Until we have the courage to recognize cruelty for what it is - whether its victim is human or animal - we cannot expect things to be much better in this world. We cannot have peace among men whose hearts delight in killing any living creature. By every act that glorifies or even tolerates such moronic delight in killing, we set back the progress of humanity.”
Rachel Carson
In short form some of sound mind and principles said, 'this is a good idea' others responded 'while it may be, we do not feel entirely comfortable with all of that and some of this' then tragedy struck again and again and again. From there the remaining said, 'this is a good idea, and 'maybe that was a good idea also' suppose it is looked on as learning from history and applying good philosophy. A shame the world could not have done without some of the tragic losses yet the gains to be celebrated. May GOD bless America.

Civil Rights is a basic right that's synonymous to human rights and constitutional rights that all countries must provide the important aspects of equality towards its citizens regardless of their race, color, creed, and beliefs for the simple reason that they are human beings. Therefore it has to be reminded every time and enforced whenever the right is forgotten or disregarded, because its also human to hate others and to be denying without thinking of its terrible consequences, that can leave a lasting scar to a nation's timeline if not history.
indeed
Prepare for civil rights beam

and this was the democratic party until 1990s
This was (and remains) the ultra conservative mentality (no matter the party nor their particular platforms of the time in question).
I'm tired of partisan people trying to portray Democrats as the bad people. It was Southern Democrats that were bad, and they were bad because they were Southern.
I feel bad for those African Americans :(
