The Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), formed to give younger blacks more of a voice in the Civil Rights Movement, became one of the movement’s more radical branches. Some of its members felt that the SCLC, led by the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was out of touch with younger blacks who wanted the movement to make faster progress. Its members began pushing for more confrontational ways to challenge segregation.

Analyze the information above. What impact do you think young people had on the Civil Rights Movement? Explain!

SNCC – the basics

Council The Problem – Seen as the shock troops of the civil rights movement, SNCC often pushed forward with plans to use non-violence to fight segregation and Jim Crow in areas deemed too dangerous by other organizations. However, as time went on in the 1960s, SNCC adopted greater militancy (aggressiveness) and moved towards more forceful activism.

The Question – Assume the role of a committee working for Martin Luther King and the SCLC. With more and more civil rights events making the news media, you are concerned that SNCC may bring ‘bad press’ to the Civil Rights Movement as a whole. Such press may set the Movement back, erasing progress made by such events as the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the Little Rock 9. What would you recommend Martin Luther King and the SCLS do to help prevent this from happening?

SNCC “When the student committee was formed … I told my

older sister … to put me on the list. And when two hundred students were selected for the first demonstration I was among them. I went through the food line in the restaurant at the State Capitol (Atlanta) with six other students, but when we got to the cashier she wouldn't take our money … The Lieutenant-Governor came down and told us to leave. We didn’t and went to the country jail.” - Ruby Doris Smith
