PLS ASAP, HELP ME DO A SHORT WRITING ASSIGNMENT! Prompt: Consider the strategies (such as marches, legal challenges, boycotts, civil disobedience, and sit-ins) used by activists in the civil rights movement. For two of these strategies, discuss:

- examples of how the strategy was used.
- how effective the strategy was, and why.

Use evidence from the lesson, as well as from your knowledge of social studies, to support your conclusions.

Sit-in movement, nonviolent movement of the U.S. civil rights era that began in Greensboro, North Carolina, in 1960. The sit-in, an act of civil disobedience, was a tactic that aroused sympathy for the demonstrators among moderates and uninvolved individuals. African Americans (later joined by white activists), usually students, would go to segregated lunch counters (luncheonettes), sit in all available spaces, request service, and then refuse to leave when denied service because of their race. In addition to creating disruptions and drawing unwanted publicity, the action caused economic hardship for the owners of the businesses, because the sit-in participants took up spaces that normally were filled by paying customers. Although the first lunch-counter sit-in began with just four participants, the attention paid to the protest created a movement that spread across the South in 1960 and 1961 to include 70,000 black and white participants. It affected 20 states and resulted in the desegregation of many local businesses in those communities.
