From marches to sit-ins and boycotts, new strategies, including nonviolent direct action, mobilized millions of Americans to join the fervent struggle for equality and justice during the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s. Martin Luther King Jr., along with other prominent African American leaders and artists, inspired millions of ordinary Americans across the US – including teachers, bus drivers, menial laborers, housewives, and young people – to join the civil rights movement protests against racial segregation and other forms of discrimination. Freedom songs were an important part of the civil rights movement, unifying people in their common goals, lifting morale, and forging emotional connections through the power of words and music.
