The National Constitution Center’s 2023-2024 Civic Calendar explores the Civil Rights Movement.
Each month features beautifully designed informational graphics highlighting key events and people from the movement, like Martin Luther King Jr., Thurgood Marshall, Ella Baker, Rosa Parks, John Lewis, and others. We’ll cover significant legislation and landmark Supreme Court decisions, all leading up to the 60th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 in July.
