Sit-ins

http://crmvet.org/info/rockhill.htm

This site has a couple stories of sit-ins that happened. They are much like the movements that King organized and the sit in of Rosa Parks on the Alambama buses, metioned on the site, was organized by king. There was also a group in Charlotte that had a sit in at an airport resturaunt that led to the desegregation of the resturaunt. I found one of the stories interesting, it said that Quakers were leading a training course on non-violent protest that black and white students were attending.

Harlem

From looking at the map of Harlem it looks like the dentist office was in a pretty important area. It looks like it was near the house of James Weldon Johnson. It's interesting all the famous people they would meet in that office. I wonder what it would feel like today if someone important like Washington or Du Bois walked into the building of your own practice. It also looks like the office was near the Zion Church, which is pretty historical since it was the first church for African Americans in New York.

Jim Crow laws

I think this picture depicts the jim crow laws. Maybe not, but at least it looks like it. It shows a crow destroying everything, just like how the jim crow laws tried to destory life as they knew it for the african americans.
