Preferred term

black church, youth, and the civil rights movement  

Definition

  • The role of youth in the civil rights movement who were nurtured and raised in the Black church is often underestimated when this history is told. Their strength and enthusiasm often became the source of the sweeping change that transformed society and became the symbol of a fresh, vibrant, and strong wind that blew through the United States during this turbulent decade of protest and change.
