SNCC 1960-1966: Six years of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee

A group of black college students from A & T University in North Carolina on February 1, 1960 refused to leave the Woolworth lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina, where they refused service. This caused another wave of meditation at Southern University City. Two months later, in order to coordinate these meditations, to support their leaders and promote their activities, student nonviolence coordinating committee (SNCC) (pronounced "SNIC") in Raleigh's show college campus ) Was established.

In the next decade, civil rights activity quietly fell asleep beyond the lunch counter. In this dramatic political situation, SNCC strives to determine its purpose to combat Caucasian oppression. SNCC was born out of today's black leaders such as Mayor Marien Barry of former Washington DC, Congressman John Lewis, National Association Julian Bond for national colleagues. Together with hundreds of other students, they have a permanent impact on American history.

This site covers the Student Nonviolence Coordination Committee from 1960 to 1966 when John Lewis was replaced by Stokely Carmichael. This event shows a decisive change in SNCC philosophy and requires the same level of attention. However, we focused on the first six years of the campaign to fully investigate events such as sit-in, free ride and free summer.

For a wider background and comments on the Student Nonviolence Coordination Committee, students and teachers visit the website "Students from 1960 to 1966: 6 Years Student Nonviolence Coordination Committee" (www.ibiblio.org/sncc/ index) .html. Is a fairly large project completed by students of North Carolina University. In addition, Michael Kaufman's 1998 Carmichael ob (www.interchange.org/Kwameture/nytimes111698.html), later died of prostate cancer at the age of 57, celebrated some of his asylum as Kwame Ture It was renamed to. After he left the United States, African leaders offered an attractive argument about the origins of black power and other aspects of Carmichael's life and career.
