Civil rights activists employed various strategies to integrate restaurants, including organized sit-ins, boycotts, and peaceful protests. During sit-ins, African Americans would occupy segregated dining areas, deliberately challenging discriminatory practices and drawing public attention to the injustices they faced. Activists often coordinated these efforts with community support and media coverage to amplify their message and pressure restaurant owners to change their policies. These actions were part of a broader movement aimed at dismantling systemic racism and promoting equality in public spaces.
One significant step taken by civil rights activists to gain the right to vote was the organization of the Selma to Montgomery marches in 1965. These protests highlighted the systemic disenfranchisement of African Americans in the South and aimed to draw national attention to the issue. The marches culminated in a violent confrontation known as "Bloody Sunday," which galvanized public support and ultimately led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, prohibiting discriminatory voting practices.

In 1960, Martin Luther King Jr. advanced civil rights by promoting nonviolent protest and civil disobedience as effective means to challenge racial segregation and injustice. He played a pivotal role in organizing the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and supporting the sit-in movement, which aimed to desegregate public spaces. King's leadership and eloquent advocacy helped galvanize national attention to the civil rights struggle, ultimately influencing legislation and public opinion. His commitment to peaceful resistance inspired countless activists and laid the groundwork for future civil rights advancements.
