 The problems white and black people faced in america during the 1950's and 1960's.

Did you know that: Today studies show that police are more likely to pull over and frisk blacks or Latinos than whites. In New York City, 80% of the stops made were blacks and Latinos, and 85% of those people were frisked, compared to a mere 8% of white people stopped. Host a poetry slam to educate others on racism and reduce prejudice in your community. but we are not talking about the present, we are talking about the 1950's when racism was more common. These next paragraphs are about people who changed the face of racism.

Rosa Parks

In December 1955, a Montgomery activist named Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to give her seat on a bus to a white person. Her arrest sparked a 13-month boycott of the city’s buses by its black citizens, which only ended when the bus companies stopped discriminating against African American passengers. Acts of “nonviolent resistance” like the boycott helped form the civil rights movement of the next decade.

The Freedom Writers

In 1961 the freedom writers was a group of people going on a bus with the "blacks" in the front and the "whites" at the back many people taught this is wrong and the blacks should be at the back because they taught that the black people were not good enough for the whites so they would go to the back where no one wants to go. they switched that up because of the boycott that Rosa Parks started when she refused to give up her seat to a white person. Sunday, May 14, 1961—Mother's Day—scores of angry white people blocked the freedom riders bus carrying black and white passengers through rural Alabama. The attackers pelted the vehicle with rocks and bricks, slashed tires, smashed windows with pipes and axes and lobbed a firebomb through a broken window. As smoke and flames filled the bus, the mob barricaded the door. "Burn them alive," somebody cried out. "Fry the goddamn niggers."(I have an "N" word pass) An exploding fuel tank and warning shots from arriving state troopers forced the rabble back and allowed the riders to escape the inferno. Even then some were pummelled with baseball bats as they fled. the freedom riders boycott lasted 7 months. 

That was the problems blacks had to face in the 1950's-1960's-ish
