Sncc's Stories

Více o knize

Focusing on grassroots activism, the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) emerged in 1960 as a youth-led civil rights organization in North Carolina. It combined radical initiatives and Black Power with reform efforts, emphasizing local decision-making in the fight for social change. Through Freedom Houses, SNCC facilitated voter registration and direct action, adapting over time from a cohesive group to a more diverse coalition. The organization engaged in critical debates about its responsibilities to communities and those affected by racial violence, shaping its legacy in the civil rights movement.
