Welcome to Living The Story: The Civil Rights Movement in Kentucky

During the 1950s and ’60s, profound legal and social changes took place in Kentucky and across America as a result of the civil rights movement. These resources are designed to give a feel for the times, to explain some of the issues that were particularly important in Kentucky, and to inspire young people by showing how people their age have made a difference in society.
