In Gabon, the Fang is the largest ethnic group, and they constitute 85% of the Gabonese population. With their origin being central Cameroon, the Fang are recent immigrants into Equatorial Guinea with their major relocation occurring in the nineteenth century. The Fang people are considered the primary victims of the historic transatlantic and trans-Saharan slave trade that occurred between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. During this period, the slave traders and missionaries stereotyped the Fang people as cannibals due to the human skulls that were discovered in boxes around their villages.

Non-violent Opposition to the Civil Rights Movement The civil rights movement (CRM) in the United States of America is a movement that spearheaded the end of racial discrimination and segregation and the disenfranchisement of African Americans. The crusade began in the 19th century during the Reconstruction era to eradicate slavery and racial oppression, a cause that African slaves had been fighting for centuries. The movement’s leaders advocated for non-violent protests, eventually gaining public sympathy and new legal protections from the federal government that protected the fundamental human rights of all American citizens, including the African-American population. Despite the use of non-violent protests, the CRM faced both violent and non-violent opposition from some Americans who wanted to maintain the status quo. This essay will discuss the non-violent protests against the Civil Rights Movement. One of the significant opposition to the CRM was Jim Crow’s laws. After the Civil War ended in America and slavery was abolished, the constitution of the United States was amended, granting Black Americans emancipation and citizenship, most of whom had been previously enslaved.
