The Niagara Movement: The Early Battle for Civil Rights explores the story of a groundbreaking civil rights organization founded in 1905 near Niagara Falls. Led by W.E.B. Du Bois and other visionaries, the Niagara Movement boldly challenged racial injustice and demanded equal rights for African Americans during an era of widespread discrimination. This compelling documentary highlights the group’s significant influence on the fight for racial equality and its role in shaping the foundation of the modern civil rights movement.
