A massive part of the 1960’s Civil Rights Movement in America, the sit-in is a tactic widely used when laws clearly delineate access to areas between demographic groups. On February 1, 1960, four North Carolina A&T College students took action that caught “even Civil Rights icon John Lewis by surprise.” On that day, the four students staged an unplanned and unprepared sit in on their college campus, spurring the eventual sit-in movement across the South. The students “...[took] four seats late that day at the whites-only lunch counter of Greensboro's downtown Woolworth's store and touching off what would come to be called the sit-in movement across the South. It happened so spontaneously, so suddenly, that the next morning's newspapers contained no accounts of the incident.”
