Abstract
Racial injustice is no longer limited to South or rural areas. Sixty-nine percent of blacks now live in cities, often in embattled inner-city neighborhoods where there is a growing sense of abandonment and anger. The Watts Riot in the summer of 1965 deeply troubles President Johnson and the coalition he formed to support civil rights. African Americans are beginning to adopt a more militant approach--"black power"--as evidenced by the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and Black Panther Party. In Detroit an obscure black nationalist group, the Nation of Islam and its leader Malcolm X, gain prominence. The militant vs. moderate factions split the civil rights movement.
