The Greensboro Four:
North Carolina college students David Richmond, Franklin McCain, Ezell Blair Jr., and Joseph McNeil were only 17 and 18 years old, but they started the sit-in protests in Greensboro, NC, that launched a movement. They sat up one night talking in their dorm. Fed up with not being able to eat at the Woolworth lunch counter, they dared each other to be bold. The next morning, they marched into history. |
