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 SCLC was a civil-rights organization founded in 1957 by Martin Luther King, Jr. It was made up of mostly southern blacks and aided in the massive campaigns of the civil rights movement such as the bus boycott. The group championed nonviolent passive resistance in order to gain equality among races.
