Answer:
Freedom Riders were civil rights activists who in 1961 staged protest trips to the southern United States, declaring racial segregation on public buses unconstitutional.
In 1961, the intercity bus symbolized more than anything else the anti-racist struggle in the United States. Racial segregation on buses and their stops was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, but remained in force in the southern states, as were many other forms of racism.
Thus, on May 4, 1961, a group of white and black Freedom Riders, as they would go down in history, embarked on a protest bus ride from Washington. The final destination was New Orleans. However, the trip ended in Alabama, where, in the absence of police, white Birmingham residents, who later turned out to be members and supporters of the Ku Klux Klan, banned buses and beat protesters furiously. who were eventually forced to return to Washington by air. However, other protesters took their place, as on May 20, eighteen students traveled from Birmingham to the capital of Alabama, Montgomery. At the end of the march, protesters were waiting for hundreds of racists. All the protesters, as well as members of the press, were beaten, but the whites who took part in the "freedom ride" were beaten with particular fury. The incidents escalated to such an extent that the state came under martial law and Justice Secretary Robert Kennedy, an ardent supporter of the protesters, sent hundreds of Alabama National Guard men to restore order, albeit temporarily.
C. Wright Mills defines “sociological imagination” as the intersection of history and biography. Sociological imagination refers to the awareness of how our personal experiences relate to the experiences of society at large. It is a process in which the person steps away from their own person and looks at his life not as a series of daily events that are happening to him, but as a product of a particular time period and cultural tradition.
In this concept, history refers to all the events of the past that have led to the development of this particular culture and society.
<em>Biography is used to parallel this concept, a sort of “personal history.” It highlights the fact that individual lives are a consequence of particular events but also of events in society at large, an important concept in sociology.
