Between the summer of 1962 and the fall of 1964, Danny Lyon made photographs of the southern civil rights movement as a staff photographer for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). His photographs of marches, protests, and jails were used by the movement itself to help raise money, recruit new workers, and to document the struggle for dignity, full citizenship, and freedom for African-Americans in the South.
