Description
The first sit-in of the Civil Rights movement happened when four African-American college students sat down at a segregated Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina, on February 1, 1960. The Greensboro sit-in sparked a wave of similar protests throughout the South, as well as "sympathy sit-ins" by college students in the North.
