Following their admission, the Little Rock Crisis occurred, during which the kids were originally barred from attending the racially segregated school. This photograph is significant because the acts of the African American woman Hazel Bryan on September 4, 1957, and the anger on her face made her a notorious image of Jim Crow racism and the intolerance encountered by the kids who attempted to attend school that day.]]> 2021-10-20 21:13:37 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1831665892 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1831684988 Freedom Riders were groups of white and African American civil rights advocates who took part in the 1961 Freedom Rides, which were non violent bus journeys through the Southern United states to denounce segregated bus stations.This photograph is significant because it was taken on May 14, 1961, when two integrated groups of Freedom Riders entered Alabama. A bigoted crowd ambushes and burns one of the buses. ]]> 2021-10-20 21:24:47 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1831684988 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1831719514 Martin Luther King was a well-educated civil rights activist who hosted one of largest rallies in Washington. In his "I Have a Dream" speech, he describes America's lengthy issue of discrimination inequality and inspires his audience to hold their nation responsible to its own promises of liberty, justice, and equality. He was arrested and got assassinated in Memphis. This photo was significant as he is waiving to his amazing number of supporters in Washington for his speech which is one of the most impactful speeches and rally's ever and was pivotal to black rights in society. ]]> 2021-10-20 21:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1831719514 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1831724633 The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a civil rights demonstration in Montgomery, Alabama, in which African Americans refused to board city buses to protest the segregated seating. The Montgomery Bus Boycott was crucial because it culminated in the Supreme Court decision that bus segregation was unconstitutional. This photograph is important since Rosa Parks was detained for refusing to surrender her bus seat to a white passenger, despite the white bus driver's insistence. Parks was prosecuted and convicted for civil disobedience following her apprehension. She later became a key figure for African American rights.]]> 2021-10-20 21:50:20 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1831724633 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832082030 President John Kennedy was a popular president who supported the civil rights movement. He was murdered in Dallas while attempting to mediate a dispute in the Democratic Party among liberals. He was shot during a motorcade procession, which resulted in his death. This picture is significant because it captures Kennedy in Dallas during the motorcade in which he was assassinated.]]> 2021-10-21 01:17:58 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832082030 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832159996 Malcolm X was a civil rights leader, minister, and advocate of Black nationalism who was African American. He exhorted his fellow African-Americans to defend themselves against white violence. While addressing his Organization of Afro-American Unity at the Audubon Ballroom in Washington Heights, he was assassinated by rival Black Muslims. This photo is very significant because it shows the magnitude of Malcolm X's impact on community to be put in The New York Times. You can also see how much people cared for Malcolm X.]]> 2021-10-21 01:49:18 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832159996 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832245387 The march was on March 7, 1965 and was intended to be a peaceful illustration of the outrage numerous individuals felt in their struggle to overcome the barriers standing in the way of voting in the fight to secure voting rights for African Americans and other minorities across the country, but three white ministers were attacked by the KKK while they were in the racist town of Montgomery. They were also brutally halted by police on the Edmund Pettus Bridge, which drew President Johnson's attention, and he signed legislation granting black people the right to vote on August 6, 1965. This picture is important because it shows the amount of supporters on the Bridge in the peaceful protest that quickly turned violent so you can see how many people were affected by this issue and wanted their voice to be heard. ]]> 2021-10-21 02:25:35 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832245387 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832275481 The black panther political party was used to protect communities from police brutality and to fight for black rights, often via violent means such as armed citizen watches. Later, the FBI accused them of communism and of manufacturing evidence against them to dismantle the party.  This picture shows the Black Panther Party in Sacramento on the California State Capitol and them being told that they would be allowed to use their guns which is significant because they had their guns taken away because some Black Panther members invade the California State Assembly Chambers so they regained a sense of power. ]]> 2021-10-21 02:38:10 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832275481 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832278963 The Watergate controversy alludes to the break-in and illegal wiretapping of the Democratic National Committee's offices at the Watergate complex involving associates of President Nixon's re-election campaign, as well as the following cover-up of the break-in, which resulted in Nixon's resignation. This photo is significant as it is Nixon leaving the white house after ultimately resigning in 1974. It is also significant because the amount of damage that was already done as it drove a wedge between the people and the government and you can see Nixon very nonchalant so I thought this was a great representation of the event as well as the feelings of Nixon. ]]> 2021-10-21 02:39:25 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832278963 manavkhatra https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832282379 The Vietnam War was a lengthy, expensive, and contentious struggle that fought North Vietnam's communist government against South Vietnam as well as its main ally, the United States. The continuing Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union exacerbated the tension. This led to 3 million deaths and a large number of individuals opposing the war. In 1975, Communist troops took control of South Vietnam, thus ending the conflict. This photo is significant because it represents the fall of Saigon and this operation took place on the 29th and 30th of April, 1975, on the eve of the Fall of Saigon. It was also the last military action conducted by the United States during the Vietnam War.]]> 2021-10-21 02:40:50 UTC https://padlet.com/manavkhatra/tv98ghmcunslohtv/wish/1832282379
