Civil Rights Movement
From Conservapedia
The civil rights movement was a movement towards racial equality and an end to segregation of African Americans that occurred in the United States from about 1953 to 1968, as courts and Congress changed laws for this purpose and to ensure that all African Americans could vote.
In the 1960s and 1970s, many courts ordered busing of children in a largely unsuccessful attempt to integrate public schools. Some busing from that era continues to the present.[Citation Needed]
