D. Peaceful demonstrations by members of the ACMHR (Alabama Christian Movement for Human Rights) and the SCLC (Southern Christian Leadership Conference) at Birmingham City Hall. The Birmingham Campaign, which began in 1963, was a civil rights movement that aimed to end racial segregation in Birmingham, Alabama. The demonstrations were met with violence and brutality from the police and segregationist groups, leading to widespread media coverage and increased support for the civil rights movement.
