CIA Archives: Desegregation and the American Civil Rights Movement Documentary Film (1957)
thefilmarchive.org Desegregation is the process of ending the separation of two groups usually referring to races. This is most commonly used in reference to the United States. Desegregation was long a focus of the American Civil Rights Movement, both before and after the United States Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education, particularly desegregation of the school systems and the military. Racial integration of society was a closely related goal. The African-American Civil Rights Movement (1955--1968) refers to the movements in the United States aimed at outlawing racial discrimination against African Americans and restoring voting rights in Southern states. This article covers the phase of the movement between 1954 and 1968, particularly in the South. By 1966, the emergence of the Black Power Movement, which lasted roughly from 1966 to 1975, enlarged the aims of the Civil Rights Movement to include racial dignity, economic and political self-sufficiency, and freedom from oppression by white Americans. The movement was characterized by major campaigns of civil resistance. During the period 1955--1968, acts of nonviolent protest and civil disobedience produced crisis situations between activists and government authorities. Federal, state, and local governments, businesses, and communities often had to respond immediately to crisis situations that highlighted the inequities faced by African Americans. Forms of protest and/or civil disobedience included ...

Reflections: The Civil Rights Movement
This is a short project I did for my social work course at Warren Wilson College in Spring 2007. It is my reflections and reactions to the Civil Rights Movement. This is the original version, there is another slightly better version in my other videos. Note: All comments made have to be approved by me before being posted. Also, a majority of the comments made about my video have been positive and I thank all of you who did leave nice comments. However, recently several crude and unnecessary comments have been made (all of which have used the n word, which I find horrible and innappropriate). Please refrain from any rude and offensive language. Frankly it is immature and I won't tolerate it. All rude remarks will be promptly deleted. Thanks!

NAACP on LGBT Civil Rights - Wanda Sykes, Don Lemon, Julian Bond
NAACP hosted an LGBT town hall meeting at their 2011 NAACP National Convention in Los Angeles. Wanda Sykes, CNN's Don Lemon, former NAACP president Julian Bond led a discussion on LGBT civil rights, "praying the gay away" and homophobia & hypocrisy in the black church. The debate gets heated when the current NAACP president is asked how can the LGBT community take the NAACP seriously when its current board members are out saying that gay rights are not civil rights, referring to current NAACP board member Rev. Keith Ratliff recent statement "Gay community stop hijacking the civil rights movement." Current NAACP CEO Benjamin Jealous responded saying the gay community should take the NAACP seriously because the NAACP were there with the Human Rights Campaign helping to pass the Matthew Shepard / James Byrd Hate Crimes Bill. The NAACP were champions of fighting Prop 8 in California as well as fighting alongside the LGBT community in Maine, Massachusetts, in Washington DC and in Maryland, and in other places. Jealous also pointed to the LGBT community to coming to the black community late in the game with an expectation and not treating the community with the same respect as others. Saying the LGBT community needs to show up early, organize and build relationships in the community.

Otherwise, please spread the word by liking this video and re-posting on youtube, facebook, twitter, etc. Like this on Facebook: www.facebook.com Twitter: twitter.com Reflections Unheard: Black Women in Civil Rights focuses on the marginalization of black women between the intersections of Black Power and Feminist ideologies from Civil Rights, up to now. What's to Come: As the scope of the project progresses, there are several other issues that will be addressed in the film. One of the most pressing is the contradictory nature of several white women's movements, which used (and some continue to use) racist ideologies to justify the equal nature of (white) women to (white) men, hence marginalizing the unique experiences and social issues that black and other women of color face. Even to this day, the very ideologies that are used to alleviate the struggle for (white) women's rights reinforce the white patriarchal capitalist system that is used to debase women of color. In addition, a more critical perspective will be given to the Black Power Movement in which many black women activists participated, and how it also reinforced white patriarchal conceptions of ...

Occupy Atlanta Silences Civil Rights Hero John Lewis!
What we saw at the "revolution": Many curious citizens and media outlets came to the first Occupy Atlanta event, and were visible shocked and confused by the consistent Marxism employed by the group. People abandoned their individuality and liberty to be absorbed into a hypnotizing collective. The facilitator made it clear that he was not a "leader" and that everyone was completely equal; words often spoken by leftists, but in this case they actually applied their philosophy. Into this surreal and oppressive environment, Rep. John Lewis, a civil rights hero and icon of American leftism, came to speak as has so often done at left-wing rallies and events in Atlanta. He is practically worshiped in Democrat circles, and was visibly stunned to see these Marxists turn him away. It was reminiscent of previous Marxist revolutions in history when those who ignorantly supported the revolutionaries are, over time, purged and rejected for the "good of the collective", when their usefulness has expired. secularstupidest.com http conservartive.com

ROSA PARKS (MOTHER OF CIVIL RIGHTS)

Rosa Parks, a former seamstress, became the first woman to lie in honor in the Capital Rotunda, sharing the tribute bestowed upon Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy and other national leaders. This informative program chronicles the life of Rosa Parks.
Thomas Sowell discusses civil rights with Joe Biden
During Robert Bork's nomination to the Supreme Court under Reagan. " In the course of any given year, Congress votes on taxes, medical care, military spending, foreign aid, agriculture, labor, international trade, airlines, housing, insurance, courts, natural resources, and much more. There are professionals who have spent their entire adult lives specializing in just one of these fields. They idea that Congress [or the American voter] can be competent in all these areas simultaneously is staggering." - Sowell "Compared to what? At what cost? What hard evidence do you have?" -Thomas Sowell
