= 1) What rights were denied to your group? Provide examples of how the rights were denied. = African Americans were denied the right to be mixed in heterogeneous groups with white people.

Usually, these separate facilities that were provided were of a much poorer quality than those provided to the white population. In discussing the Civil Rights Movement, we largely focus on race issues in regards to African Americans, although Asian Americans and Mexican Americans also faced discrimination such as proposed bills to make interracial marriage illegal and unfit working conditions.
