Best Answer

Woolworth's sit-in protests occurred in the late 1950's as an attempt to get Woolworth's to end its discriminatory practices against African-Americans. In Greensboro, NC, black college youth went to a Woolworth's, sat down at the counter, and refused to leave, demanding to be served just like white patrons.
