These two should give you a good start. They also include other links that might be helpful.

Answer 2

no one is answering your question, and I will add to that,unfortunately. Read, Keep Your Eyes on The Prize, a survey of the Civil Rights Movement. Companion book to the PBS mini-series. Monumental, well at least for me. I believe the series (video) listed sites at the conclusion

Answer 3

Answer 4

you could read autobiography of malcolm x
