what is source 2 about?

Source 2: A Sit-in at Woolworth's
(1) It started as a four-man protest at the Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina.

(2) The protest began on February 1, 1960. Four African American men—Ezell Blair, Jr., Joseph McNeil, Franklin McCain, and David Richmond, students at the Agricultural and Technical College of North Carolina—purchased some items at Woolworth's. They then sat at the store's "whites only" lunch counter and tried to order. They were refused service, and the manager asked them to leave. The four remained peacefully in their seats until the store closed.

(3) The next day they returned, but with company. Twenty-five more students had joined them. Several days later, there were over three hundred demonstrators in attendance.

(4) The sit-in lasted nearly six months, gaining national media attention. On July 25, 1960, the protesters' persistence was rewarded: The Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro became desegregated. In the meantime, the sit-in in Greenboro had inspired people to launch their own sit-ins in other communities throughout the country.
