Seizing Justice: The Greensboro 4

Seizing Justice: The Greensboro 4

S1 E2: It was an average Woolworth's lunch counter, but these were no average customers. What transpired on Elm Street in Greensboro, North Carolina 50 years ago sent shockwaves through every block across America. This is the story of the Greensboro Four, college freshman who led a nonviolent sit-in and taught a country that it was finally time to serve everyone. In February of 1960, a simple coffee order at America's favorite five-and-dime store sparked a series of events that would help put an end to segregation in the United States. Join us as we detail the extraordinary story of otherwise ordinary young men, four African-American college students whose nonviolent sit-in at a Woolworth's lunch counter started a revolution.
