Answer:

D. They used nonviolent methods of civil disobedience.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was founded in April 1960 by young people who are dedicated to nonviolent, direct action tactics.

Their goal was to mobilize youth-led nonviolent, direct-action campaigns against segregation and other forms of racism.

On the other hand, The Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) founded in 1957, is an African-American civil rights organization, more popular through its first president, Martin Luther King Jr., who had a large role in the American civil rights movement.

Their goal was to form an organization to coordinate and provide support, in a nonviolent direct action as a method of desegregating bus systems across the South.

Hence, the early tactics of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and the Southern Christian Leadership Committee (SCLC) were similar, as they both used nonviolent methods of civil disobedience.
