Abstract

The focus for this project will be analyzing the relevance of the civil rights movement today. Such as how the foundations and scarifies of the civil rights movement let to the social climate of the Black Live Matter movement. This project will explore topics of racism, discrimination, inequality, suburbanization, and the divide of racial lines. Also, this project will focus on Civil Resistance and civil disobedience. This project will compare the ideas of Martin Luther King Jr, Malcolm X, and other prominent civil rights leaders during this time. I believe that by exploring and analyzing the causes of the Civil Rights moment this will show that many ideas, beliefs, and arguments are still very relevant and fluid in the Black Lives Matter movement today.
