t destroyed so many dreams? Kennedy was "our king" and when a county's king is assassinated, those responsible must come to justice. The only problem is what happens if its not a lone man that was accountable for the king's death, but rather the men that work for the king: The US Government.
             "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."(Declaration of Independence)
             Thomas Jefferson's stirring words, written in 1776 in our Declaration of Independence, defined the promise of America--freedom and equality for all. The words rang hollow, however, for the millions of African Americans held in slavery prior to the Civil War, and later denied political, economic, educational, and social equality by unjust laws and social customs. In 1960, the Civil Rights Movement began to put an end to these inequalities. Student-organized sit-ins like the February 1960 protest at Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina, offered young men and women with no special skills or resources an opportunity to display their discontent and raise white awareness. Protestors were encouraged to dress up, sit quietly, and occupy every other stool so potential white sympathizers could join in. The success of the Greensboro sit-in led to a rash of student campaigns all across the South. By the end of 1960 the sit-ins had spread to every southern and border state. Demonstrators focused not only on lunch counters but also on parks, beaches, libraries, theaters, museums, and other public places.

The students are not the law-breakers, it is the Government who breaking the law; the law of human rights.
