Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Freedom Riders were civil rights activists, predominantly from the North, who rode buses into the South to protest segregation and voter disenfranchisement. They often staged sit-ins at lunch counters in segregated restaurants or participated in voter registration drives in areas where African-American voters were disenfranchised through intimidation. The most notable rides took place in 1961.
