The organization that was the first seeds of civil rights movement, battled not just to get rid of the chains of servitude but getting much rights as human beings before the rights of being american citizens and therefore, having the right to demand more civil rights like the white men. This dissertation will not deal only with the important years of the great civil rights movement, but also tackles it from its roots from slavery, Black codes, and Jim crow Laws. Then the dissertation shows how the great events that happened in twentieth century through the Great Migration of the blacks, and the great depression played a great role in the rise of black self-awareness, and the development of their social position; the right for the blacks as real american citizens and their right to have the american citizenship and the right to enjoy their civil rights as indicated by the terms of the 14th, and the 15th amendments to the american constitution. Then, it analyses the motives that fired up the rise or the flourishment of the Civil Rights Movement.
