Time for Walls of Segregation to Come Down

  • Summary

  • In 1963, the Reverend Ralph Waldo Canty graduated from the Lincoln High School in Sumter, South Carolina, and joined a small group of students in the basement of a building on the campus of Morris College. There, they planned public protests against racial segregation in the city. The Sumter Movement held nighttime sit-ins and marches to involve working people and helped support staff stage a 1966 strike at Shaw Air Force Base for fair wages.
