Explanation:

The civil rights movement was a non-violent fight for freedom, rights, justice and equality of African American people. This movement happened during the 1950s and 1960s, and fought against the white supremacists, segregation, discrimination and racism even when slavery had ended a while back. Its most known leader was Martin Luther King Jr; he gave speeches and wrote letters about how non-violent protests were the right way to earn their rights as citizens, and those speeches inspired other social groups like women's liberation movement, latino civil rights, Native American civil rights and many political activists that started to fight with non-violence methods to achieve equality.
