A New Form of Protest: <strong>Sit</strong>-<strong>Ins</strong><br />
• As a means of<br />
protesting<br />
segregated lunch<br />
counters and<br />
stores, African<br />
Americans and<br />
white allies began<br />
to organize “sitins,”<br />
a form of<br />
peaceful protest<br />
in which<br />
participants would<br />
take a seat meant<br />
for “whites only”<br />
and wait for<br />
service.
