Answer:  "Voter discrimination."

Context:

In September, 1963, a bombing at a church in Birmingham sparked the African American community into strong action in Alabama to push for the rights of black citizens.  As noted in a Voting Rights Timeline provided by Alabama State University, "the murder of four black girls at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham" was the catalyst that launched a "new thrust on voting rights by the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC)."

The voting rights campaign in Alabama culminated in the Selma to Montgomery March in March, 1965.  Martin Luther King, Jr., as president of the SCLC, was a key participant in that campaign, as was John Lewis, chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC).   Marchers (including Lewis) were attacked and beaten by state troopers the first time they attempted the march.  Many Americans were sickened by the scenes of this which they saw on television, and National Guard troops then were deployed to protect the marchers as they again made their effort.  There were roughly 2,000 (not 20,000) who made the successful march from Selma to Montgomery, March 21-25, 1965.  When they arrived in Montgomery, they were met by a crowd of nearly 50,000 supporters, both blacks and whites in that supportive group.

In what ways did the nazi state seek to establish total control over its people?
8_murik_8 [283]
The Nazis established control over its people by various means:→ They used different propganda through posters or films to glorify their behaviour.
→ Media was carefully used to win support for the regime and popularise it.
→ Nazism worked on the minds of the people, tapped their emotions and turned their hatred and anger against those marked as ‘undesirable’.
→ Special surveillance and security forces to control and order society in ways that the Nazis wanted, was created.
→ The police forces had powers to rule with impunity. Genocide also created an atmosphere of fear and repression which helped them to establish total control over its people. *This took me way too long to organize. I'm Sorry For Typing So Much. Hope This Helps*
