SNCC's "We Want Freedom" program

The SNCC's "We Want Freedom" program was a strategic effort by the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee to mobilize and empower Black communities during the Civil Rights Movement. It aimed to challenge racial injustice through protests, voter registration drives, and grassroots organization, emphasizing self-determination and equal rights. The campaign sought to create awareness, build solidarity, and pressure authorities to end segregation and discrimination, using nonviolent methods to achieve social change. Essentially, it was a rallying cry for freedom, equality, and justice, focusing on empowering individuals to actively participate in transforming their communities and society.
