The correct answer is A) to strive for civil rights through nonviolent protest.

The Southern Christian Leadership Council (SCLC) was formed in 1957 to strive for civil rights through nonviolent protest.

We are talking about the turbulent years of segregation in the southern states of America and the creation of many civil rights organizations that supported the rights of African Americans. The Southern Christian Leadership Council (SCLC) was created on January 10, 1957, after the Montgomery Bus Boycott in Montgomery, Alabama. This council received the support of Martin Luther King Jr. and organized nonviolent protests and demonstrations to demand the termination of racial segregation in the United States.

Local law defines the speed limit as 45 miles per hour on local roads. The law outlines punishments by charging fines for those
Levart [38]

This is a matter of Criminal Law.When you break a law, you are committing a crime. When you break a law, you have a legal punishment. The penalty increases the faster the person travels above the speed limit. The most severe punishments are for those who travel faster than 20 miles per hour above the speed limit.

The law is intended to protect people's safety.The source of the law is a statute – a written law that tells us what to do and what not to do. Since it is a local law that “outlines punishments,” it is also a municipal law.

Many people will be killed on the road if speed limit is not followed.he purpose of the law is to stop people from speeding. Speeding can cause accidents that hurt the driver or other people. The faster you go increases the risk of an accident. The law is intended to protect people’s safety. If it did not exist, people could drive whatever speed they wanted. They could drive 100 mph in a school zone. In the scenario, he was driving 22 mph over the speed limit and his wife and unborn child were in the car. He could have had an accident and killed all of them.
