Confusing timelines
Because all participants are referred to as "The Freedom Riders", the timeline section of this article is often confusing. Also, some sections repeat information already stated in previous sections. For instance, the first paragraph of the Birmingham section is just a recap of the Anniston section. This is confusing initially because it sounds like 2 different groups. I think someone with a bit more narrative ability needs to come through and reconcile these issues. RassGroots (talk) 20:15, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes,, there were different groups of Freedom Riders, with some overlap. The initial organizers called off the Rides after the major violence. At that point the Nashville Student Movement, spurred by Diane Nash, took over the Ride and continued it. Your concern about the wording should be followed up on, thanks.
