They’re goal or idea was to make life easier and less stressful for those people who couldn’t get a job because they were disabled or were just completely incapable of working. Below is the 5 things they wanted accomplished or solved (I put the list in my own words - simpler terms). 1. They wanted more jobs 2. An income for the unemployed (Welfare) 3. Land for farmers who can't find any 4. Everyone can participate in the economy and help boost it. (Minimum wage) 5. Everyone gets a say in how government regulations are made and performed || This relates to the Civil Rights Movement because it was something that people were trying to do to make life easier for everyone.

 * "On the Verge of a Dangerous Racial Conflagration" || Devin || This man is talking about a kid who died
 * "Rules for Riding Desegregated Buses" || Lightening || Boycotting started after Rosa Parks was arrested on
 * "No school in our state will be integrated" || Logan || There was a young black man who wanted to go to the University of Mississippi to study. When he applied the governor of Mississippi wouldn't let him attend because he felt that schools should not be integrated. Kennedy though felt that it was not right and the Supreme Court had just made a ruling stating that all schools in the U.S. must be integrated or desegregated. Eventually all Mississippi schools were forced to be integrated. || This obviously affected the Civil Rights movement because it was one of the first times that a black person tried to enroll in a Mississippi school. Also since schools had to be integrated the blacks won for once. ||
 * "Non-violence and Racial Justice 1957" || Daylon || This is an article by Martin Luther King. It is about racial tensions in America.
 * "Letter from a Freedom Fighter's Father 1961" page 1, page 2, text only || Logan || A boy by the name of John Dolan after high school and college wanted to become part of CORE and the Freedom Rider's Group. Many of his schoolmates, friends and family had their own opinions to add. Dolan's father basically disowned him and felt what he was doing was not right and that someone of such wisdom and knowledge should not of chosen such a path. His father did right him a letter and stating that he was put back in his will and he is no longer mad at his son but he is very disappointed and feels he failed as a parent and should now consider himself a hypocrite. || This article played a role in the civil rights movement because it shows that small groups like CORE can do a lot. This CORE group made it so blacks could join the military, vote etc. ||
 * "A Volatile Time, 1962" || Justin || This was and news paper about desegregating is schools, buses, and in other places. || the roll it had was that is made people really mad that did not like desegregating ||

 * "Patience is a Dirty and Nasty Word" || Devin || John Lewis gave a speech the same day as Martin Luther King and he
 * "One Volunteer's Freedom Summer, 1964" || Justin ||  ||   ||
 * "Alabama Voter Registration Form, c.1964-65" || Devin || It was talking about questions that were asked to the votes in Alabama and it seemed very unfair on the questions that they asked. They had to be able to read the questions and be able to write for them to be able to vote for the president. They asked questions like ethnic background and lots of questions referring to the race of which you are. It was sorta taunting the people who couldn't read or write especially for the blacks because they told them they could vote but you need to be able to read and write to answer the questions which meant you could not vote if you was a black person because you could normally not read or write at that time. || I believe that they thought it was discriminating
 * "What does Mississippi Have to Do With Harlem? (1964)" audio || Justin || The page was about, black get every thing last and and white get it firs and in games black would always lose and the whits would. || If black do a small crime it is big.
 * "Creating an Open and Just City, 1966" || Daylon || This is a document by Martin Luther King showing his understanding of peoples problems in Chicago. It explains how ghettos were sectioned off for blacks and were horrible living conditions. The people said that getting a good job or education was almost impossible because of all the racism. The document covers lynching, education, bad living conditions, jobs, and poor blacks that receive their only income from welfare. The Chicago Freedom Movement was to wipe out slums and ghettos it was to bring equality and better living. || This Movement created better living for blacks in chicago. It aloud them to get jobs and education without racial problems. ||
 * "Two Societies, Separate and Unequal, 1967" || Jusitn ||  ||   ||
 * "People, Acting Together, Are Power, 1967" || Logan || This article talks about a 30 year old man who was poor, black and had nothing but a degree in law. He was looking for a job and always found himself interested in politics. So when a major city here in America was looking for a new mayor he found himself capable of the job. He ran for office and surprisingly won. He didn’t win because he campaigned well or anything he won because he knew that, you didn’t HAVE the power you ARE the power. Stokes knew that in order for this town to function properly the people must realize that they’re just as in charge as he is. So every time churches needed speakers, or boy scouts needed help selling items, or maybe just to help with a car wash or go to a local party Stokes made sure he was there so the town realized he was just a normal guy trying to fit in and show the people they are the power as well not just him. || This relates to the Civil Rights Movement because it shows that a black person really could be a leading figure in government and maybe segregation and slavery was decreasing. Not all people agreed with it but at least Stokes was brave and had the courage to know he would be something if only he tried. ||
 * "The Goals of the Poor People's Campaign, 1968" || Logan || This article was a little confusing so this is what I got from it...
 * "Where is the Draft for the Freedom Fight?" || Lightening || This is program about this community for blacks, are saying they will not give up until they have some destiny and they want for black's to have freedom. This event moslty said they wish white's would get out of the blacks country, and for us to say in one country, until we can gain some respect. || Back then blacks couldn't do anything.. they would to be treated like slaves. And a black man became a mayor which is a big change. ||
 * "The Panthers' Ten-Point Platform" || Daylon || This was a written document from the Black Panthers community. It states what they want like freedom, employment, decent housing, education, be exempt from military service, end to police brutality, freedom for blacks in prison and when a black man is took to court, there will be trail held by peers. This document was suppost to give blacks a list of ten things. The Black Panthers were a group of blacks during the 60's. || This showed people that blacks wanted to be treated right and groups would form that requested things to be done. It helped many communities to be more equal. ||
 * "Attica Inmate Demands, 1971" || Devin || Sirs. Immediate demand one. We want complete amnesty,
 * "Both Parties Have Betrayed Us, 1972" || Lightening || We still know that blacks get treated different then whites everyday, from a different person. This event is discussing the National Political Black Convention. This is a disscusion about why these black people get treated in all different ways. || The National Black Convention, they have these single group inventions about these state's of matter. ||
 * "Keeping Atlanta Too Busy To Hate, 1975" || Justin || It was in an time magazine where it talk about Maynard Jackson the mayor of Atlanta, how he was black and how he was elected into office. || That it wasn’t just whites that were being racist against blacks, but some of the black communities were being racist against white people ||
 * "Remember the Real Fight, 1975" || Devin || The house of freedom wrote a booklet for
 * "Equal Opportunity Not Enough" || Logan || I wanted to start with this paragraph below that I pulled right out of the speech that was given by Lyndon B. Johnson on June 4, 1965 at Howard University,

"These differences are not racial differences. They are solely and simply the consequence of ancient brutality, past injustice, and present prejudice. They are anguishing to observe. For the Negro, they are a constant reminder of oppression. For the white, they are a constant reminder of guilt. But they must be faced and they must be dealt with and they must be overcome, if we are ever to reach the time when the only difference between Negroes and whites is the color of their skin." I wanted to share this paragraph because it really stood out to me and it was just very powerful to me. Especially the last line that says, “to reach the time when the only difference between Negroes and whites is the color of their skin.” It just goes to show that people were trying to make a difference and overcome segregation and separation. It wasn’t just a joke, the people of America really did want blacks and whites to be one in the same and not just treated equal. Blacks did get houses and so did whites, as well did they both get doctors and public schools but blacks was not as nice as the whites. Blacks lived in slums when whites lived in towns and suburbs. Blacks doctors couldn’t afford technology or maybe even medicine when whites got what they needed at a snap of the finger! Johnson was trying to prove the point that blacks were treated so bad in their past and we should feel guilty for what we put them through when they have feelings too and we should want to make up for what we’ve done by giving them everything we have maybe even better. They were born with everything we were they should have the chance to get an education and use their abilities to their advantage. They deserve a chance just like what we have. Equality is not enough they deserve and need more. || This plays a role in the Civil Rights Movement because once again we were trying to help blacks and give them more than what they had. We weren’t trying to keep them apart from education and the world we were trying to bring them into it. We were trying to rebuild our nation and make it better as well as more powerful. ||
 * "Report on the Miami Riot, 1981" || Lightening || A study proved that blacks start all the riots and gangs, and that whites don't start anything. Blacks were the ones that started all the killings and because of people getting killed. Miami did a research about it and the studies show that blacks did everything wrong. || Racism was still a big thing. Blacks were blamed for everything. But whites were not, whites had the good life and everything they needed. ||
 * "Young Residents of Cabrini Green" || Daylon || This was a written document about the bad living conditions for people in Chicago's, Cabrini Green. Children made up 70% of the population in Cabrini Green. It was a small population that searching for a good education and a new life. All of the people in this community are jobless and poor. Youth in this place are exposed to things far more mature than there eyes should see. They experience things that many adults have never experienced. The people are capable of doing things but they don't have the money to do it. || This place showed people that something truly needed to be done. It showed people what was happening to blacks in Chicago and it started to get people doing something and changing the way things were. ||
 * "We Must Have a Black Mayor, 1983" || Lightnin || A black African American became a mayor. Whites were tooken back by the mayor. But he knew his stuff and knew all the right things to do. He promised to make things better for not just blacks but whites as well.No matter how much hatred they had for them. || Its not everyday back then that a black mayor tells a story that he will try his best to do his job, and do it right. Not only for blacks but whites as well. Everyone should be equal. ||
