The American Civil War was the culmination of the struggle between the advocates and opponents of slavery that dated from the founding of the United States. This sectional conflict between Northern states and Southern states had been tempered by a series of political compromises, but by the late 1850s the issue of the extension of slavery to the western states had reached a boiling point. The election of Abraham Lincoln, a member of the antislavery Republican Party, as president in 1860 precipitated the secession of 11 Southern states, leading to a civil war.The segregation was started in 1877

Civil Right's activists

Martin Luther King

Martin Luther King, Jr., original name Michael King, Jr., was born in January 15, 1929, in Atlanta, in Georgia, U.S. He died on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tennessee, He was Baptist minister and social activist who led the civil rights movement in the United States. His death by assassination in 1968. His leadership was fundamental to that movement’s success in ending the legal segregation of African Americans in the South and other parts of the United States. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. He was speeching "I have a dream "a beautiful moment on segregation for black people, a speech for inspired everybody in the world."I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by their character."

Rosa Louise McCauley Parks was born in February 4, 1913 and was dead in October 24, 2005 was an American activist in the civil rights movement best known for her pivotal role in the Montgomery bus boycott. The United States Congress has honored her as "the first lady of civil rights" and "the mother of the freedom movement". Rosa Parks became a NAACP activist in 1943, participating in several high profile civil rights campaigns. On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Parks rejected bus driver James F. Blake's order to go of four seats in the "colored" section in favor of a White passenger, once the "White" section was filled. Parks was not the first person to resist bus segregation, but the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) believed that she was the best candidate for seeing through a court challenge after her arrest for civil disobedience in violating Alabama segregation laws, she received a penalty of 10 dollars. She helped inspire the Black community to boycott the Montgomery buses for over a year. The case became bogged down in the state courts, but the federal Montgomery bus lawsuit Browder v. Gayle resulted in a November 1956 decision that bus segregation is unconstitutional under the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
