Growing Up in the Civil Rights Movement

What was it like to be a kid during the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s? Important roles were played by many young people, such as Ruby Bridges - the first African American to attend an all-white school in New Orleans - and the kids who took part in the Birmingham Children's Crusade and actually went to jail to protest for equal rights. Learn about the basics of the Civil Rights movement, how discrimination works, and what it takes to choose nonviolence.
