Abstract
Abstract Sit-ins staged by students of the historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) became an unstoppable force in the 1960s. Atlanta University students penned “An Appeal for Human Rights,” and the Civil Rights movement went to full scale under the iconic leadership of Martin Luther King Jr. and his vision of the “Beloved Community” that became the moral pillar of the School’s humanistic values informing an Afrocentric perspective. Atlanta became the epicenter of the Civil Rights movement. As a consequence, major federal civil rights legislation was enacted, and the Council for Social Work Education (CSWE) came on board as exclusivity of the Eurocentric perspective was challenged by student activism.
