Answer:

The assault on the Freedom Riders in Alabama really opened the eyes of whites because not only were blacks on the buses during the Freedom Rides, but there were also white riders who were attacked which made whites think, that if they can also be attacked and experience first hand what African Americans felt on a daily basis, kind of showed that it hurts.
