1961 in Mississippi: Beyond the Freedom Riders Lesson Plan

(View Complete Item Description)

In this lesson, students will explore how, prior to the involvement of national initiatives in the 1960s, such as the Freedom Rides, local people worked to bring an end to discrimination in their communities. These efforts were led out of public view in private homes, churches, and small businesses, and thus, the early local leaders of the Civil Rights Movement are often overlooked in history. Students will learn how the work of these local leaders laid the foundation for national organizations such as SNCC and CORE to further facilitate the fight for civil rights within Mississippi as well as the nation.
