The Civil Rights Movement: A Cultural Revolution
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 авг 2024
- As the American Civil Rights Movement successfully challenged legal segregation, it also created a cultural shift that transformed American music, fashion and culture. Folk, blues and gospel singers created harmonies and beats to drum forward the march for racial equality. Activists of the 1950s and 1960's, dressed in formal church attire, marched to demand racial equality.
As the movement for racial equality gained momentum in the mid-1960s, the dress of white and black activists transformed to reflect the political and social tide for change. Dashikis, Afros, black leather jackets, berets, blue jeans, loose, flowing shirts, long hair and flowers all came to symbolize the 1960's, one of the most trans-formative periods for human and racial equality in American and world history.

They call it a CULTURAL REVOLUTION, to me though it was a AWARENESS REVOLUTION BLACK became AWARE of who we were for so long we had tried to something we were not which was WHITE AMERICA. For the FIRST TIME a MAJORITY of us began to look for ourselves in this SOCIETY. Who we were and what were not whom PEOPLE wanted us to be. We did not TURN OUR BACKS on this NATION in finding ourselves, in my OPINION in ENHANCED OUR WORTH too. By find who were in this SOCIETY what were. The EDUCATION REVOLUTION which took PLACE after the CIVIL WAR with the CREATION of H.B.C.U.'s took place again with even better RESULTS. Do not get me WRONG there was another PERIOD in between called the HARLEM RENASCENCE which had a GREAT IMPACT as well. We probably under go another PERIOD in BLACK AMERICANA DEVELOPMENT which hopefully continue our GROWTH and as always be ENHANCE not only US but this NATION as well
I agree, your periods of growth and development greatly enhance our nation. Art, music, culture, science, etc., black people have a lot to contribute and it's excellent that these revolutions gave you the chance to do so.
Hello, I was curious as if I could use bits of this film you put together for a film I am currently making. If you would like to talk further I would appreciate if you would reply to my comment with your number or email. Thank you.
Hello, Lala. Unfortunately, we cannot give permission to let others use documentary excerpts as the University of Memphis holds the copyright for the film.
Best of luck in your film.

Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH’S LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On YAHUSHA HAMASHYACH. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can be forgiven of your sins!
HE Loves you! Come to HIM!🙂🙂🙂🙂
Come on, Counterfeit Christian, spew some more of your nonsense. Nobody here is listening, but you have no choice, do you? Your _Savior_ commanded you to do it, didn't he?
Thanks to social communism
Communism is always evil, but in every country where it took over, it succeeded in doing so because of deep economic and legal injustices and inequalities that had brutally oppressed and even murdered the poor and working class majorities. Strip a man of his rights and dignity long enough and eventually he will fight back. The working classes of Russia were starving and being used as cannon fodder under Czarist rule. Bautista’s Government n Cuba were in bed with the Mafia and killing political opposition in broad daylight. So they turned to Castro and his Guerrillas. Ho Chi Minh fought with the US and British against the Japanese before Vietnam being back over to the French who were famously brutal colonizers. Communism gains appeal when well meaning ppl turn a blind eye to injustice.
