During the civil rights movement African-Americans wrote music,
poems, and stories about their struggles during the civil rights movement. It influenced a lot of people because people didn't realize
how hard it must be from a African-Americans point of view to go through this. People learned from these songs, poems, and stories and were influenced by it and had a good understanding how it was from a African-Americans point of view. African-Americans also created art and paintings that expressed their thoughts on the civil rights movement and they helped influence people about the civil rights movement.
