{"value"=>"<p>These scrapbooks (1960-1961) are about student lunch counter sit-ins and contain clippings from a variety of newspapers. Coverage includes instances of sit-ins primarily across the southern United States, the segregated conditions that led to the sit-ins, arrests made at such events, Martin Luther King, Jr.'s support of the movement, and the eventual progress made, with several lunch counters and other businesses deciding to desegregate as a direct result of the student sit-ins.</p>"}
