16 apr 1963 anni - 1963: Birmingham Protest (Alabama) (MLK and the SCLC chose Birmingham, because of how tightly segregated it was and the tendency of the local police, lead by Eugene 'Bull' Connor, to over react. although at first little progress was made and King was arrested. After a march lead by children from the local high school, was met with police dogs and water cannons, the protest gained the attention of the global media. The protest forced businesses to desegre- gate and gained global recognition.)
