Title: The Birth, Evolution and Legacy of SNCC
Developed under the guidance of Dr. Lloyd Johnson , History

Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee was a success built off of the vision and determination of college students and young adults whose desire for direct action for change started with four African-American students and a Greensboro, NC sit-in in 1960. SNCC left behind a legacy that tends to be unappreciated by today’s society.
