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.
