Answer 1

C) Her arrest led to a yearlong boycott that gained national attention and support.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1955 Rosa Parks was arrested because she did not give up her seat for a white man on a bus. At that time, a law stated that black people have to give up their seats to white passengers on a bus. The arresting of Parks lead to the Mongomery bus boycott, which was lead by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The boycott lasted a year, black people claimed their rights, and this powerful movement conquered the avolition of bus segregation.
