This research paper: A 16 page paper discussing whether the successes of the Civil Rights Movement originated with grass roots initiatives or arose through government intervention. The short answer is that it was local, grassroots efforts that brought the magnitude of the existing injustices to the attention of Washington in the 1960s. That grassroots effort did not merely materialize from the ether surrounding Montgomery, Alabama, however. It began more than a century earlier, well before the Civil War. The paper discusses the influence of Frederick Douglass; Plessy v Ferguson (1896); Brown v Board of Education (1954); the Montgomery bus boycott; and the effects of Southern tradition. Bibliography lists 9 sources, several of which are primary.
