Answer:Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC)

Congress of Racial Equality (CORE)

Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC).

Explanation: I got the answer right on USATestPrep. The SCLC was founded in 1957 by MLK and worked with local organizations. CORE was founded by a group of college students in 1942, and helped to organize peaceful movements like the Montgomery Bus Boycott. The NAACP is the oldest civil rights movement in the United States. The SNCC helped plan sit-ins, voter registration drives, and protests.

Step-by-step explanation:

The civil rights movement was a struggle for social justice that took place mainly during the 1950s and 1960s for Black Americans to gain equal rights under the law in the United States. The Civil War had officially abolished slavery, but it didn’t end discrimination against Black people—they continued to endure the devastating effects of racism, especially in the South. By the mid-20th century, Black Americans had had more than enough of prejudice and violence against them. They, along with many white Americans, mobilized and began an unprecedented fight for equality that spanned two decades.
