The Fight for Civil Rights


African Americans rallied for their rights African Americans put up a fight Discrimination was all around No nice words between races were found They wanted to be treated equally But change wasn't made peacefully The Civil Rights Movement ended discrimination As well as ending segregation Their social, legal, and political rights were given back to them African Americans were no longer condemned
