This inquiry kit features Library of Congress sources focused on the integration of schools and colleges during the Civil Rights movement.

Thinking Questions

  • What is integration?
  • What did people do when the law made white schools allow black students to come to school?
  • If you were a black student at this time, would you want to be part of integration? Why or why not?
