Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1, Explain that a degree of support and tolerance must exist for the movement among the public and societal leaders.
2, Provide two examples, which might include the following: The civil rights movement took off because of the effect that implications of racism could have had on American foreign policy, the Christian conservative movement took off as many Americans worried about changes in social values and practices, the labor movement took off when Democrats were in need of voters, the women's movement surged as public opinion became more favorable toward equality, gays and lesbians are benefiting from increasingly tolerant attitudes, and the Occupy movement reflects a widespread sentiment of inequality in the United States.

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1, Define nonviolent civil disobedience as it differs from violent behavior.
2, Discuss the Greensboro lunch incident, the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, and the 1963 Birmingham demonstration.
3, Note that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., advocated nonviolent tactics, adopted from Mahatma Gandhi; and that Malcolm X, Stokely Carmichael, and the Black Panther Party were tolerant of violence.
