University of Miami Professor of Biology Steven M. Green talks about his experiences in the 1960s during which he engaged in protest movements and, as a result, was sentenced to imprisonment and hard labor. He explains his life experiences that led him to champion social integration and nondiscrimination and notes that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was considered "the talking organization," whereas the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) was "the doing organization." Green was a member of CORE and he participated in protests against the Bank of America, which had discriminatory hiring and employment policies. He also volunteered to visit Mississippi in 1965 and went door to door to encourage blacks to vote.
