After the first incident in Greensboro, the action of sitting in spread throughout the U.S., contributing to the eventual end of legal discrimination.]]> 2019-04-09 12:42:28 UTC https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/349896425 oconwa1625 https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/349897046 2019-04-09 12:43:46 UTC https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/349897046 oconwa1625 https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/349897807 The cartoon is displaying the success of this form of protesting.]]> 2019-04-09 12:45:15 UTC https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/349897807 oconwa1625 https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/349898836 This method of protest applied non-violence by sitting in an all-white business. When asked to leave, they would simply refuse until escorted out by police.]]> 2019-04-09 12:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/349898836 oconwa1625 https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/350318008 David Richmond was one of the four Greensboro students that sparked the trend of sitting in.

They not only sat-in at lunch counters, but created "wade-ins" at all-white pools and "pray-ins" at churches. Another organization was the Congress on Racial Equality (CORE), which directly endorsed the events taking place.]]> 2019-04-11 12:29:57 UTC https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/350733601 oconwa1625 https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/350737375 The sit-ins gave birth to an official civil rights movement, where students all across the U.S. protested peacefully for their rights. These events indirectly inspired the 1964 Civil Rights Act, '65 Voting Rights Act, and the '68 Housing Act. This would not have been possible without the four students at Greensboro. ]]> 2019-04-11 12:39:48 UTC https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/350737375 oconwa1625 https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/350740446 The retaliation of police towards the protests broke the 14th amendment, which gave blacks equal rights. Through segregation, the lie was that we were "separate but equal," which was not true due to the lower quality of everything for African Americans. ]]> 2019-04-11 12:47:01 UTC https://padlet.com/oconwa1625/2b1uernhfx9m/wish/350740446
