The Freedom riders were arrested and put in jail for 30 days because they broke a state law in Mississippi. This law called for segregated facilities for black and white citizens. The Freedom riders intentionally had black riders sit-in the whites only section of these facilities. This form of protest resulted in arrests in several states across the "Deep South."

Answer: A) Nixon resigned as President.

Explanation:

Johnson had become a chasm under Nixon, as the Watergate revelations fueled a widespread cynicism about the integrity of politics and politicians.
