The first was the Woolworth's sit-in at the lunch counter in Greensboro, MS--this sit-in showed the power of a simple non-violent protest. 

Sit-ins challenged the Jim Crow segregation laws at their core. Blacks sitting where they were not allowed by the laws forced a reaction from whites. Either they must use force against non-violence or change their policies.

How did the house un-American activities committee (HUAC) affect filmmaking
Tju [1.3M]

The House Un-American Acitivities Committee (HUAC) was a federal agency that sought out communism in the United States. The goal was to expose supposed communists or individuals with connections to the Soviet Union.

This had an enormous impact on the filmmaking industry. Filmmakers were sure to produce movies that were extremely patriotic and painted America in a positive light. Along with this, Hollywood filmmakers associated with communism were called into hearings by the government. Ten of these filmmakers refused to answer questions by the HUAC, as they felt their constitutional rights were being violated. These ten filmmakers, now known as the Hollywood Ten, were blacklisted in the industry and their careers were never able to recover.
