Welcome to WikiProject Civil Rights Movement. This has been formed as a collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of the Civil Rights Movement and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic.

- Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs)
- Mitchumch (talk · contribs) - I like to find existing and missing crm content on Wikipedia; add categories and WikiProject templates to articles; create and add navboxes, infoboxes, and sidebars to articles; fix a variety of glaring issues present in crm content; move crm content away from popular thought towards a summary of reliable sources.
- Randy Kryn (talk · contribs)
- Dicklyon (talk · contribs) – I am proud of the progress that the civil rights movement made, and ashamed of the lack of progress in more recent years. But on Wikipedia, I just want to help assure a neutral, correct, and professionally styled presentation of it.
