Chicago Freedom Movement (7 ene 1966 año – 7 ene 1966 año)

Descripción:

Focused on homeownership and rental injustices facing black families. Dr. King and his staff visited tenants in apartments with atrocious conditions. Many of the apartments were rat-infested, without heat, dangerous, not regularly repaired by the landlords, and extremely overpriced. It held rent strikes, hosted workshops for youth on nonviolent activism, and boycotted banks and businesses that were complicit in racial discrimination.
