I tweaked the opening sentence and removed the "After 1969" section, giving this TL clearer start/end parameters. If TL is to be expanded (forwards or backwards) please don’t leave gaps spanning decades or include vague open-ended section headings. Cheers. Drdpw (talk) 15:36, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

The page was put up at the time that the 1954-1968 Civil Rights Movement had its own page. That page was changed to read 'Civil rights movement' and lost the long-term correct proper name of that historical movement. This timeline specifically refers to that movement, and should actually be changed to the proper name 'Timeline of the 1954-1968 Civil Rights Movement', although due to the RM would be oddly lower-cased.

Chronological scope of this article

Lede says "the 1947 to 1968 civil rights movement", however the civil rights movement page it links to says this particular Movement was from 1954-1968. Civil rights movement (1896–1954) is also a thing, so it seems logical to remove the 1947-1953 section of this article per WP:SYNTHESIS, to be added to a future article of "timeline of the 1896-1954 civil rights movement" MarshallKe (talk) 12:51, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
