What were the civil rights people protesting about on bloody sunday?
They were campaigning for civil rights for the Roman Catholic minority. The organisation had 5 main demands (sorry – wiki source, no time to search for others) one man, one vote which meant extension of the local government franchise from ratepayers to all those over 21 an end to gerrymandering which meant Unionists were elected even in districts with Catholic majorities an end to discrimination in housing an end to discrimination in jobs the disbandment of the B-Specials, the Ulster Special Constabulary, which many viewed as sectarian.
