In the years before the start of the Renaissance, in the years 1910-1920, The African-American populations from the South started to migrate up to the Northern Region of the US, Some of these families had their own reasons to move up North but a most notable reason happened from 1915 and 1916 after natural disasters in the south put African-American workers and sharecroppers out of a job and after US immigration started to slow down, Northern job recruiters needed more workers for their companies thus them traveling into the south and convincing some African-Americans to work up North to support their families, This would be later known as the Great Migration.

After the Stock market crash of 1929 America was in a very deep financial crisis Jobs were lost, the banks closed, and people lost their homes and pretty much every American who was living at that time was struggling to keep themselves afloat, and comparing this to the previous decade where it was absolute growth and prosperity it was very different, But After President FDR election in 1932 he began to start trying to fix the nation economic issues, oneway he would do this was the use of his own broadcasts called "Fireside Chats" where he would address the nation with updates, but the use of these broadcasts ultimately helped unified the public during those times as the president was kinda like in the homes of the American people, and with New deal programs they also helped some of the issues during those times were resolved and eventually America got out of that mess and then straight into another one.

The Civil Rights Movement was a major protest movement that aimed to put an end to Americas Discrimination to people of color which was focused on African-Americans, During and before this time African Americans faced Racial discrimination from others and they were often treated unfairly and without respect, this then led to Protests and demonstrations happening across the Nation, Marches, Boycotting, Rally's or Occupying public spaces just to get their word out that they want change, One example of a demonstration would be the Greensboro sit-in as after 4 young black men were refused service in a shop they decided to sit and wait till they got their request fulfilled and if they weren't successful that day they did it again the next which eventually caused the people who refused service in the first place to buckle down from pressure. This movement also had major leaders like MLK and Malcolm X who both were known for their demonstrations and speeches, and during the duration of this movement many legislation's and acts were signed like the Fair Housing act which provided equal housing for all regardless of race, religion, and gender and by the end of it movement due to all of its combined effort it was pretty successful on leaving a permanent mark in American History as it successfully pushed back racism.
