The sit-in movement was a nonviolent movement of the U.S. civil rights era that began in Greensboro, North Carolina, in 1960. The sit-in, an act of civil disobedience, aroused sympathy among moderates and uninvolved individuals. African Americans (later joined by white activists) would go to segregated lunch counters.
