Sit ins primarily brought the Civil Rights Movement into peoples homes through the media. Young men and woman would sit in malt shops or university buildings protestign Vietnam and civil rigts and woman status. These sit-ins led to Board of Education v Brown and other major court decisions. Most importantly a mentioned these sit ins were the first time African American civil rights campaigners were able to get there case in front of national media. This led to a need for congress, senate the executive and the judiciary to take the civil rights movement serious.

A sit in is a passive means of protest. It stops movement in a particular area and can close offices, stop classes, and people from getting to work. When a police response happens no one moves or reacts with aggressive behavior. It done properly it works.
