The correct answer is: A) They sat in the front of the bus ans used "white" restrooms in bus stations.

The freedom rides refer to a series of political protests against segregation in 1961, both african american and white people participated on them by riding buses together around the American South. They wanted to test the enforcement of a court order prohibiting segregation in interstate bus terminals. Their protests were pacific and consisted on the african americans sitting on the front of the bus and the whites on the back sitting in pairs, also when arriving to the bus stations the participants objective was to used the segregated facilities, such as the restrooms and the food services. As a response the found hostility and great violence in some states, the worst case was in Alabama.

What events led to creation of the confedrate states of america and to the outbreak of the ivil war?
Dovator [93]
The 1860 election of Abraham Lincoln was a turning point for the United States. Throughout the tumultuous 1850s, the Fire-Eaters of the southern states had been threatening to leave the Union. With Lincoln’s election, they prepared to make good on their threats. Indeed, the Republican president-elect appeared to be their worst nightmare. The Republican Party committed itself to keeping slavery out of the territories as the country expanded westward, a position that shocked southern sensibilities. Meanwhile, southern leaders suspected that Republican abolitionists would employ the violent tactics of John Brown to deprive southerners of their slave property. The threat posed by the Republican victory in the election of 1860 spurred eleven southern states to leave the Union to form the Confederate States of America, a new republic dedicated to maintaining and expanding slavery. The Union, led by President Lincoln, was unwilling to accept the departure of these states and committed itself to restoring the country. Beginning in 1861 and continuing until 1865, the United States engaged in a brutal Civil War that claimed the lives of over 600,000 soldiers. By 1863, the conflict had become not only a war to save the Union, but also a war to end slavery in the United States. Only after four years of fighting did the North prevail. The Union was preserved, and the institution of slavery had been destroyed in the nation.
