Birmingham Campaign, 1963–1964



Cops attacking the marcher with fiercly dogs



 Birmingham movement occurred in 1963. This movement was organized by the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) to against the segregation in Birmingham that has the highest rate of the racial segregation in US. The movement was led by our leader Martin Luther King. He suggested non-violent resistance to the movement. While the people were protesting around the city without, fire fighters and cops stopped them by firing a high-pressure water jet from the fire hose and releasing the fiercely dogs. Most of the victims were the students. The rate of students who were sent to the jail increased as days go by. The people who continued to march were being arrested peacefully. Even though the cops arrested the marchers and sent to jails, more people continued to march that cops and fire fighters were outnumbered. So they had no choice but to surrender. So Martin Luther King desegregated any public places which were segregated.
