Not like 1912, but say 1979 instead of 2003 for a gen z. Now, if you would retain the knowledge you have now or not, thats up to the genie.

    This is very true the idea would not be the savor but just a pair of hands to help. Also in this scenario remember I know the future so i could have a greater impact but just having that information. You also have to remember there were some white people that were icons in the civil rights movement. It was not about one race clawing it’s way up against another race. It was people of both races coming together against inequality and bigotry. If an ally is turned away just because they are white then it’s just a race war and the ownership class win.

      What can you do that would benefit a movement in the 1960’s?

      What information do you have that could change any of the outcomes, how would that information change the outcome specifically, and why do you believe changing history wouldn’t negatively impact the progress of those movements?
