Directions: Read the excerpt below from TaNehisi Coates’ article, “Civil Rights Protests Have Never Been Popular.” In one complete sentence, type a brief summary of the excerpt. "There’s a lot of ground covered in this column, and not all of it thoroughly. Leonhardt’s rendering of the civil-rights movement, for instance, implies a kind of direct and seamless chain of events, from the March on Washington’s invocation of American ideals, to growing white support, to the passage of the Civil Rights Act. This elides self-interested motives for civil-rights reform—the influence of the Cold War, the threat of urban rebellion—in favor of warm and fuzzy ones."
