Explanation:
This is in relation to a story in the book "The Hiding Place" authored by Corrie Ten Boom. This story is a biography on Boom's life during the war in Holland.
Otto was a young German who was also a Nazist. He was as an apprentice to Boom's father, who is a watchmaker. When Otto becomes an apprentice under Boom's Father, the family realized the effect of Nazism as Otto proudly often states that he was in the Hitler Youth, and excuses himself during daily scripture reading saying the father is reading the old testament, a "book of Jews" and consists of lies.
At a point in the story, Otto started abusing Christoffel, an old man who also works at the watch shop. Christoffel was always subjected to Otto's violence such that he is being talked down to and ridiculed by him. Sometimes, Otto also trip and hit Christoffel alongside shoving him into a wall. These were some of the ways Otto persecuted and abused Christoffels.
The tactics that civil rights activists used to oppose racial segregation were sit- ins, boycotts and protest marches.
Explanation:
The Civil Rights Movement was a social movement undertaken by the colored people, to end the racial discrimination against them.
People of many different races and religions were also part of the movement.
But predominantly, most of their activists were African- Americans. Activists no matter what their race or religion was, joined in the protest.
The participants led a very non- violent form of protest. Despite the fact that they were attacked by angry mobs, they refused to bow down to the violence and carried on with their protest quietly.
Finally, the outcome was in the favor of the African Americans, and the white people slowly changed their attitude towards the colored race and gave them the rights, they deserved.
