Martin and Grandpa are characters in the short story "The Medicine Bag" by author Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve
. Grandpa is a Native American who belongs to the Sioux group of tribes. Martin, as his male descendant, is supposed to receive the medicine bag Grandpa carries around with him before Grandpa dies.
<u>At first, Martin is embarrassed and unwilling to receive and wear the medicine bag. He even refers to it as a "dirty leather pouch" that Grandpa has around his neck. However, Grandpa tells Martin the story behind the items that are carried inside the bag and their meanings. They used to belong to Grandpa's father, the last one in their family to make a vision quest. Martin's feelings change once he realizes how important the bag is to Grandpa. It is not only a representation of his culture, but also of his family. Martin now takes the bag seriously, and he is more than willing to receive it. He stands up, ready to have Grandpa place the bag around his neck.</u>

D. Five young girls were killed at the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham.
Explanation:
The 16th Street Baptist Church bombing was an act of white supremacist terrorism that occurred on September 15, 1963, in Birmingham, Alabama. Before Sunday morning services at the 16th Street Baptist Church, a church visited by mostly black churchgoers, a bomb went off, killing <u>four</u> young girls were killed and injuring 22 others. The church also served as a meeting place for civil rights leaders. This violent incident helped draw national attention to the fight for civil rights for African Americans and served as a turning point, contributing to support for passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
