Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The bus boycott was a legitimate form of peaceful protest. It was meant to hurt the economy of the bus company being boycotted.

Public marches were a very common tactic used by SCLC in the 1960s. By then some liberal whites had joined in the movement.

Sit-ins were also commonly used.

The one thing that was never advocated was violent protests. That was left to the Black Panthers and the Chicago Seven.
