Greensboro Lunch Counter Sit-Ins

1 Feb 1960 to 25 Jul 1960

#HST3107

On February 1, 1960, four Black students from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University sat at the segregated "whites only" lunch counter of Woolworths in Greensboro, North Carolina, and demanded service. Refused by servers, they refused to leave, and the Greensboro Lunch Counter Sit-Ins began. After several months of nonviolent protest, the students experiencing escalating violence from White citizens, the lunch counters were segregated. In tandem with the Montgomery Bus Boycott, the sit-in movement demonstrated the power of nonviolent protest.
