In this activity, you'll develop a claim for an explanatory research essay that addresses the causes or the effects of the civil rights movement.

Answer/Explanation:

I'll help you make an introductory paragraph with the claim in bold, but here's some tips regarding claims or in other words "thesis." A strong thesis statement for a cause-effect essay indicates whether the essay focuses on causes or on effects. Sometimes the thesis statement uses the words cause(s) or effects(s), but this is not necessary if either the cause or the effect is implied in the statement.

Post Reconstruction, America plummeted into an era of social movements for freedom and liberty for different groups. As the common-white man was looked upon as the ideal member of society, there were many people such as blacks, women and gays that did not apply to this ideology. After decades of being discriminated against and looked at as the “outsiders” in society, men and women of color were finally fed up. The Civil Rights Movement was one of the most pivotal social liberty movements of the era. As men and women marched and rioted for equal rights as the whites (insiders), their voices impacted the nation’s history forever. Additionally, men and women of color were not the only parts of society being discriminated against, white women were becoming increasingly furious with how society looked at them compared to men. In contrast to white men, women were always looked at as the outsiders. Whether it be in the workforce or everyday life, women did not have nearly the same amount of respect or rights in society as men did. Second wave feminism however, changed this idea immensely. Marches and the voices of women demanded the same social liberties as men. Lastly, gay liberation was arguable one of the most influential and surprising movements of the 1960’s and 70’s. When most people think of the insider-outsider dilemma, they think of men and women or blacks and whites. However this new movement started the tension between homosexuals and straight men and women. The ideologies and beliefs of gender and sexuality that America had believed and followed for so long were now being questions by thousands of people. These three pivotal movement in history truly shed light on the insider-outsider dilemma in America and shaped the path for equal social rights among all people.
