Freedom Now Movement

The Freedom Now Movement was an effort by individuals and organizations in the 1950s and 1960s to combat racial segregation and discrimination, primarily in the United States. It aimed to promote racial equality and civil rights through advocacy, legal challenges, and activism, encouraging African Americans and allies to push for social justice, equal access to education, employment, and voting rights. The movement played a role in raising awareness about racial injustices and contributed to the broader Civil Rights Movement, ultimately helping to dismantle many racial barriers and promote equal treatment under the law.
