nov 17, 1961 - Albany Georgia “failure”

Description:

The Albany Movement was a desegregation and voter’s rights movement that was formed in Albany. Many local black leaders as well as members of SNCC and the NAACP were important in founding it and later MLK and members of the SCLC joined. Many of them disagreed and so there was tension within the movement and because of that they didn’t achieve many of their goals. But, it ultimately was helpful in the civil rights movement as a whole
