Conclusion: Although it was dangerous for them the freedom riders did establish great credibility with both blacks and whites and they did encourage people to join the movement and make a change. The Riders helped move the campaign along and help be a voice for all those too timid to speak up because of the society we once were. Although the Freedom Riders helped us get to where we are today, there is still racism and much to be done in this society today.
