Stories of the Quest for Civil Rights

I found this article and was instantly intrigued.  I knew that during the times of racial segregation African Americans could be arrested for harassing or even talking to white people.  I did not know that white people could be arrested for talking to African Americans.  Of course, Zellner was arrested because he was talking with who the racist community would call "Extremists," but I still think that that is ridiculous.  This article showed how racist people were during the Civil Rights Movement, I think it was great the Zellner was willing to be thrown in prison many a time just because he wanted to write a paper on racial problems among other things.  This article shows just how bad things were, in "A Letter from Birmingham Jail," Martin Luther King Jr. talks about unjust laws, and this article shows some of those and how people needed to break these laws because they hurt everyone.
