Oral histories with members of the Albany Movement's civil rights campaign in southwest Georgia document that time period
as well as the local politics and initiatives in its aftermath.
"In November 1961, residents of Albany, Georgia, launched an ambitious campaign to eliminate segregation in all facets of
local life. The movement captured national attention one month later when local leaders invited Martin Luther King, Jr. to
join the protest. Despite King's involvement, the movement failed to secure concessions from local officials and was consequently
deemed unsuccessful by many observers. Subsequent appraisals, however, have identified the movement as a formative learning
experience for King and other civil rights organizers, and credited it with hastening the ultimate desegregation of Albany's
facilities, which occurred only one year following the movement's conclusion in August 1962." -- Civil Rights Digital Library
