I beleive the answer is: nonviolent attempts to oppose segregation

During the segregation period, the black citizens are not allowed to eat, sit, and even go to the toilet in the same place as the white citizens did.
The sit in was being done as a form of silent protest toward the discriminatory rules that exist due to jim crows law.
