Answer:

The Real answer is d

Step-by-step explanation:

Why because Rosa Parks was arrested for not giving up her seat to a Caucasian person. Her arrest led many people outraged and many African Americans decided that justice needs to be made. It took nearly a year for this injustice to end. Figures like Martin Luther King Jr. did not give up and kept fighting for what's right. This is what inspired other people to make sure other places end racism.
