Answer:

The tactics of the civic movement that were adopted by the feminist movement were boycotts, marches, speeches and strikes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The civil rights movement has influenced and informed the feminist movement and vice versa, through the same tactics of manifestation. Many Western feminists have adapted the language and theories of activism to equality between blacks and whites and have drawn parallels between women's rights and the rights of non-white people. Despite the connections between the feminist and civil rights movements, some tension arose during the 1960s and early 1970s when nonwhite women argued that feminism was predominantly white and middle class and did not understand and / or was not concerned with racial issues. Similarly, some women argue that the civil rights movement has sexist elements and does not adequately address women's concerns. These critics have created new feminist social theories about the intersections of racism, classism and sexism, and new feminisms, such as black feminism and Chicano feminism.
