The movement was led by activists‚ thinkers‚ and artists who sought to rethink and even overturn what was widely interpreted as a reaction against the rigid critical structure and lofty

MLK Jr. The 1960’s were full of hate crimes towards the black community‚ calling for action. Some believed action through violence would solve issues‚ others such as Martin Luther King Jr. believed in a future where all would be equal.
