Antibiotic resistance. Bacteria are termed drug-resistant when they are no longer inhibited by an antibiotic to which they were previously sensitive. The emergence and spread of antibacterial-resistant bacteria has continued to grow due to both the over-use and misuse of antibiotics.
As a principal organization of the Civil Rights Movement, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) championed the use of nonviolent direct action to end legal and social discrimination against African Americans.
The Organization was formed after the Montgomery Bus Boycott by its first President, Martin Luther King Jr. Their goal was to form an organization to coordinate and support nonviolent direct action as a method to desegregating bus systems across the south. The SCLC played a large role in the Civil Rights Movement.
