Political Action For Civil Rights

Abstract: Malcolm X advocated bringing about change through "any means necessary' while Martin Luther King, Jr. followed the principles of nonviolent civil disobedience to fight for the rights of Blacks. This 5 page paper argues that Nonviolent civil disobedience is a viable alternative to political violence and was successfully used as a tactic by leaders of the Civil Rights Movement. The use of 'political' violence was justified as a means to bring about change. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
