What short term effect did sit ian’s and other civil rights protest have on life in the south

The Civil Rights movement was specially active during the decade of the 1960s in Southern states, where the equality of rights for all US citizens ensured by the 14th Amendment, was not happening in practice. Legal and social mechanisms were developed, such as the Jim Crow laws, to prevent that African Americans could effectively access to their constitutional rights.

Social unrest took place through demostration, boycotts and sit-ins. Such popular pressure resulted very effective. On the first hand, protests like the one triggered when Rosa Park refused to give her seat to a white woman in a bus in Montgomery (Alabama), managed to finish segregation practices. Segregation was legally ended when the US Supreme Court enacted the landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education. Movilizations also ended up abolishing Jim Crow laws and achieving equal access to voting rights to all US citizens, without discriminations in terms of race. Equality of rights in voting was enforced with the enactment of the Voting Rights Act in 1965.
