Answer 2

Answer: C) nonviolent resistance

One of the most significant characteristics of Martin Luther King's Jr.'s civil rights movement is the fact that the resistance he advocated was nonviolent. This emphasized the fact that Black people did not want to disrupt society or live outside the law. Instead, they wanted the law to represent them. This theme is expressed in this passage by the sentence: "We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence."
