"Non-violent resistance to injustice was a good strategy for southern civil rights leaders."
Non-violent resistance to injustice was a good strategy. For example, Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955, which the Supreme Court upheld that segregation on buses was unconstitutional in 1956. Martin Luther King Jr got people’s support and helped African American get more rights.
On the other hand, Non-violent resistance wasn't a very good strategy in some ways. For example, “Letter from a Birmingham Jail.” People tried to march to Birmingham city in 1963. However, white police will arrest them or set the snarling dog to attack them.
