Civil Disobediene

        I have chosen to write about The Civil Rights Movement of

 the 1960's. i have read "Coming of Age in Mississippi" this

 story is about the civil rights movement in 1963. The NAACP

 is a group of people that try to help African Americans in

 getting their equal rights. The story "Coming of Age in

 Mississippi" is about a boy in college trying to prove to his

 parents that he is able to do it with out their help. This boy has

 gotten kicked out of his dorm room because he doesn't have

money to pay for it. he has become great friends with his social

 science professor who happens to be in charge of the NAACP

 activities on campus.

 

       The reason for this movement was so the African American

 can have equal rights there is a saying "equal rights but

 separate" and that is not equal rights because they are still

 being segregated and they are being treated different then the

 others. The boy and three other students from his school have

 gone to a restaurant and had sat in the front to eat the waitress

 walked by them many times and she finally went up to the

three African Americans on of them has said "our waitress

 walked past us a couple of times before she had noticed we had

 started to write down our orders.
