The Selma-to-Birmingham March was the event that forced John F. Kennedy to take meaningful action in support of the civil rights movement.

<h3>What was the Selma-to-Birmingham March?</h3>

It was a civil right movement that occurred more than 50 years ago on March 7, 1965

During the march, over 100 people gathered and marched from Selma to the capital city of Montgomery to ensure that African Americans could exercise their constitutional right to vote even in the face of a segregationist system that wanted to make it impossible.

The event led to the passage of Civil Rights Act that prohibited both racial and sexual discrimination in employment and public institutions.

Hence, the Selma-to-Birmingham March was the event that forced John F. Kennedy to take meaningful action in support of the civil rights movement.

Maurinko [17]
The correct answer is <span>B. Employ absolute power to maintain order in the areas under their rule.
Machiaveli's idea about ruling was that it is better to be feared that to be loved. Thus a ruler, a king, emperor, or whoever was in charge of a country, had to have absolute power over everyone and instill fear in his or her subjects so that they cannot even think about rebelling. </span>
