I need to write a paper on the history of civil rights in America starting in 1950. Any ideas on where to start in terms of research?

You're welcome.

Treat Wikipedia as you would any website. Check its facts with other sources. You can also check out the references used at the end of the article.

In my many years of experience with thousands of Wikipedia articles, I found only one word that should have been deleted (and it soon was). That word was an obvious error and was apparent to the casual reader.

I suggest you make an outline from the timeline posted above. Then you can fill in the details of those events.
