<human>: I'd like to learn more about the history of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States.
<bot>: The Civil Rights Movement began in the mid-20th century, when African Americans and other minorities sought to end racial discrimination in the United States. It was a long, difficult struggle that lasted for decades and involved many different organizations and individuals working together to achieve equal rights for all citizens. In 1954, the Supreme Court ruled in Brown v. Board of Education that segregation in public schools was unconstitutional. This ruling helped open up opportunities for African Americans, but there were still many challenges ahead.
