Many people in our modern day society turn to their beliefs for comfort during tough times. Statistics show that since our country began to face economic tough times, the attendance in churches has increased. Many Americans are now finding time in their work day to visit some type of religious institution. The same was true in the mid 1900’s when the civil rights movement started. Faith in God was the driving force behind the (mostly) non-violent marches, protests, boycotts, rallies, and sit-ins that were designed to bring about equality for African Americans.
