The Albany Movement, initiated in 1961 in Albany, Georgia, involved key figures such as Martin Luther King Jr., who provided support and guidance, and local leaders like William G. Anderson, the president of the Albany Movement. Other notable participants included activists from the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and the NAACP. The movement aimed to challenge segregation and promote civil rights through nonviolent protests and grassroots organizing. It became a significant part of the Civil Rights Movement, despite facing challenges and setbacks.
According to traditional accounts the Albany Movement began in fall 1961 and ended in summer 1962. It was the first mass movement in the modern civil rights era to have as its goal the desegregation of an entire community, and it resulted in the jailing of more than 1,000 African Americans in Albany and surrounding rural counties. Martin Luther King Jr. was drawn into the movement in December 1961 when hundreds of black protesters, including himself, were arrested in one week, but eight months later King left Albany admitting that he had failed to accomplish the movement's goals.
He was arrested in 1956 in Montgomery, Alabama during the demonstrations against segregated buses. This movement included the famous case involving Rosa Parks, charged with violating the city's public transit rules. In Albany, Georgia, he was arrested twice. Once in December 1961 and again in July 1962 in connection with the Albany Movement, which demonstrated against segregation and promoted voter registration. Only shrewd actions by the Albany officials prevented the movement fom acheiving its goals. In other cities, the lessons learned were put to good use.
Albany Movement happened in 1961.

When told as a chapter in the history of the national civil rights movement, Albany was important because of King's involvement and because of the lessons he learned that he would soon apply in Birmingham, Alabama. Out of Albany's failure, then, came Birmingham's success.
