Which statement best illustrates a philosophical change in the civil rights movement during the 1960s?

Answer :

Okay, so the Civil Rights movement has been going on for about a decade by the time the 1960's roll around... and people are tired of not seeing any real results. In the '50's Civil Rights are protested peacefully and the movement is led in part by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Now, don't get me wrong, MLK Jr. still led the movement in the '60's but he was shot in 1968, which led to riots among African American communities around the nation. When people realized that peaceful protests maybe weren't the way to go, more  violent leaders and organizations came bout. For example, Malcolm X was the leader of the Nation of Islam and he had radical ideas such as that blacks were the superior race and so they should separate from the white people and not try to gain equality. The Black Panther Party was developed, and members dressed in all black with leather jackets and carried guns. Their goal was to fight police brutality in African American neighborhoods and they would use violence if necessary.

Answer:

Malcolm X parted ways with the Nation of Islam.
