What happened during the 1960s regarding civil rights?

I suggest you do a search on the voting rights act of 1964 and the civil rights acts of 1964. Then lookup names like Martin Luther King, Ross Barnett, George Wallace and Rosa Parks. Back then it was not unusual for for a gang of thugs to lynch a black a person. This in the land of the free!!! There have been several documentaries. The link below is a start.

African American activists, along with some white supporters, made great strides toward achieving political equality with the majority culture (i.e., white Americans). Segregation, the practice of racial separation that dominated race relations in the American South (and to a lesser degree in other parts of the nation), began to crumble due to their efforts, which sparked efforts by other minority groups to petition for greater inclusion in American political culture, and in American life in general. For more information, start with a general text such as Fred Powledge's Free at Last?: The Civil Rights Movement and the People Who Made It or, if reading is not your thing, watch the documentary series Eyes on the Prize.

What didn't happen. Desegregation, Martin Luther King, right to vote, the right to exist just like the Caucasion population of America, the list is endless. The 60's were the start of everything that is considered civil rights. Why hasn't America perfected it yet is my question.

Holy moly! The 60's were full of civil rights activities. Martin Luther King, Malcomb X, the black panthers, etc..etc...etc...There have been whole books written on this very topic.

If you really want to see what happed look at the 1940's, and look into a person called Paul Robeson

Those people are TOTALLY wrong. Not much was going on. I 'm an African American (level 4!) and I was there. It was boring
