1960's-Civil Rights



Dr. Martin Luther King and his impassioned ways showed the world that strength in numbers is far stronger than any force. Through his photo taken at the 1967 speech, that is later titled "Beyond Vietnam," King shows that conviction does not always have to lead to war.


This event makes up one of the most vital issues that surrounded the middle part of the 1960's. It showed how the world was changing and how the power in numbers theory, when really put to the test would work if people did it through a tough and resolute way. Dr. Martin Luther King and many like him were part of the reason why the civil rights act of 1969 would be passed. The civil rights period is marked by many as the defining period of the 20th century.
