your answer that you would be looking for is d im positive and sure hers some info on why Born in Marshall, Texas, James Farmer became an
important leader in the civil rights movement of the 20th
century. His frustration with segregation and his belief in
the non-violent passive resistance ideas of Gandhi from
India led him to found the Congress of Racial Equality
(CORE) with other students at the University of Chicago.
CORE became the first protest organization in the United
States founded on the concept of civil disobedience and non
-violence. Farmer was its director. To protest segregation on
buses in the South, CORE organized the "Freedom Rides."
These non-violent protests played a part· in making people
aware of segregation in interstate transportation. This
practice was later struck down as unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court. Farmer passed away from complications of
diabetes in 1999. this is not copy or plagerism this is some of my kolege to
