Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Starting in 1960, college students across the United States began using the tactic of the sit-in to protest segregation and racial discrimination. Students would sit down and refuse to leave segregated lunch counters and other public spaces, often facing arrest and violence from authorities and counter-protesters. The sit-in became a powerful tool for the civil rights movement, and inspired other forms of nonviolent direct action.
