"She didn't say a word. She just looked out the window like she couldn't hear." The driver was incensed, and Smith immediately feared for Parks' safety. "I could tell he was upset because he hit his pocket like he was reaching for a gun," Smith said. "But he looked like, 'Aww. There's too many people here. Better not reach for my gun.'"

Rosa Parks is an iconic figure in black history whose civil disobedience had impacts far-reaching and everlasting. However, in some cases, violence seemed to be necessary in order for the oppressors to be convinced that the reality is: the oppressed won't back down. In Mississippi, this was especially true. While it wasn’t specifically violence from the oppressed’s side that was necessary, force definitely had to be used in places as close-minded as Mississippi: “the tactic of armed self-defense was indispensable in order to protect lives and property since the courts and law enforcement officials often stood silent or protected the perpetrators of racist violence.” This can also be looked at from the oppressor’s POV, or just the people in power. Is violence an effective way to implement social change? Yes. This is similar to all the dictatorships that took place in the Soviet Union during WWII. Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini all used violence to set fear in people and rule their respective countries, especially Stalin. He used brutal methods to control the people and it worked.  ]]> 2020-04-13 17:46:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ashoor_g_21/qgmx5zr8775ccw94/wish/504986593 ashoor_g_21 https://padlet.com/ashoor_g_21/qgmx5zr8775ccw94/wish/504987205  “In contrast, the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement chose the tactic of nonviolence as a tool to dismantle institutionalized racial segregation, discrimination, and inequality. Indeed, they followed Martin Luther King Jr.'s guiding principles of nonviolence and passive resistance. Civil rights leaders had long understood that segregationists would go to any length to maintain their power and control over blacks. Consequently, they believed some changes might be made if enough people outside the South witnessed the violence blacks had experienced for decades.”
"The larger Civil Rights Movement can attribute its success to the tactic of nonviolence contrasting with the exposure of violence-prone policemen, sheriffs, vigilante groups, and other defenders of the status quo. Yet, the tactic of armed self-defense was indispensable in order to protect lives and property since the courts and law enforcement officials often stood silent or protected the perpetrators of racist violence. Thus, blacks and their supporters were compelled to fight the evils of segregation with nonviolence as well as with force. While this may seem paradoxical, it worked to advance their struggle for freedom, equality, and justice."

It was peaceful with no arrests. But just weeks after the March on Washington, tragedy struck in Birmingham when a bomb exploded at the 16th Street Baptist Church during Sunday school classes. Four young girls were killed and 23 others injured. It was an awful blow for Dr. King and the civil rights movement.

In 1870, the 15th Amendment granted blacks the right to vote.”

Although the passage in 1964 and 1965 of major civil rights legislation was victorious for the movement, by then militant black activists had begun to see their struggle as a freedom or liberation movement not just seeking civil rights reforms but instead confronting the enduring economic, political, and cultural consequences of past racial oppression.

However, it cannot be said to be the most effective way of achieving racial equality. Public leaders like Malcolm X and Martin Luther King proved to be way more influential and effective.

Black people “held public office and sought legislative changes for equality and the right to vote.” In addition, The civil rights act of 1964 was implemented. Culture wise, it held a lasting impact. Unfortunately, not all changes resulting from the civil rights movement resulted in a desirable social change. Rivalries between blacks and whites grew stronger as seen in the case of Desegregation of Little Rock Highschool. Thousands opposed and threw protests in favor of keeping the school segregated. Although in the end, Eisenhower sided with the 6 black students, the state was more divided than ever.
