No other leaders in the United States have more involved in making this country a democracy for all than black civil rights leaders. They have been at the forefront of voting rights, civil rights, fair housing, and anti-discrimination legislation. They have gone to the eye of the storm and challenged racial hatred and violence.

Finally, they have opened the doors of government to provide full participation of all citizens.
