Anti-segregation protest

Anti-segregation protests are demonstrations aimed at ending the practice of separating people based on race or ethnicity in public spaces, schools, and institutions. Such protests emerged prominently during the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, particularly in the 1950s and 1960s, as activists sought to challenge discriminatory laws and practices that enforced racial segregation. Protesters organized marches, sit-ins, and other forms of peaceful resistance to advocate for equal rights and integration, striving to create a society where individuals of all backgrounds could coexist with equal access and respect.
