Answer:

The correct answer is C. The Civil Rights Movement benefited the most from Bull Connor's represive actions in the 1960s, as people saw what racism in the South was like.

Explanation:

"Bull" Connor was an American politician and administrative official. He became known mainly through his strict enforcement of segregation and his violent crackdown on peaceful demonstrators of the civil rights movement in the early 1960s in Birmingham, Alabama.

Although not a member of the Ku Klux Klan himself, Bull Connor, as police chief of Birmingham, exposed the same violence used by the clan. In 1961, he prevented police intervention when KKK members at a bus stop beat together a group of civil rights activists. Through such actions and the poor image of the city in the media as a source of racial conflict, Connor lost the backing even in the majority of white residents.

It can be justified the same way that it was during the Korean War. In order to repel communism in South Korea, the US troops were launched. This was a unilateral military action. In the same way that the US used the Monroe Doctrine to help aid and enforce their rule in other places, this is what happened during the Iraqi War. The US saw an unjust system of government reigning unfairly, so they intervened to overthrow it. The justification there was that they should have been able to choose their own government (in short, they should have a fair and free democracy).
