Answer:
The Civil Rights action that resulted in the participation of thousands of non-African Americans was the March on Washington.
Explanation:
The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom was a major political demonstration in Washington, DC, on August 28, 1963, organized and led, among others, by the lawyer, pastor, human rights activist and peace activist Martin Luther King, who brought together more than 250,000 people in the city to clamor, address, pray and sing for freedom, work, social justice and an end to racial segregation against the country's black population.
During the day, protesters from every part of the country, mainly African Americans but with a notorious white participation (about 20% of total demonstrators), arrived to Washington. The protests took place in deep order and civility, and its worldwide repercussion made it the greatest political force for the passage of Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act in 1964 and 1965.
Answer:
The name of the Ku Klux Klan was derived from the Greek word kyklos, meaning “circle,” and the Scottish-Gaelic word “clan,” which was probably chosen for the sake of alliteration. Under a platform of philosophized white racial superiority, the group employed violence as a means of pushing back Reconstruction and its enfranchisement of African Americans. Former Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest was the KKK’s first grand wizard; in 1869, he unsuccessfully tried to disband it after he grew critical of the Klan’s excessive violence.
Most prominent in counties where the races were relatively equal in number, the KKK engaged in terrorist raids against African Americans and white Republicans at night, employing intimidation, destruction of property, assault, and murder to achieve its aims and influence upcoming elections. In a few Southern states, Republicans organized militia units to break up the Klan. In 1871, the Ku Klux Act passed Congress, authorizing President Ulysses S. Grant to use military force to suppress the KKK. The Ku Klux Act resulted in nine South Carolina counties being placed under martial law and thousands of arrests. In 1882, the U.S. Supreme Court declared the Ku Klux Act unconstitutional, but by that time Reconstruction had ended and the KKK had faded away.
The 20th century witnessed two revivals of the KKK: one in response to immigration in the 1910s and ’20s, and another in response to the African American civil rights movement of the 1950s and ’60s. Various chapters of the KKK still exist in the 21st century. White supremacist violence, in general, is again on the rise in America. Several high profile events, including the 2015 Charleston church shooting; the 2017 "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville, Virginia; the 2018 Pittsburgh synagogue shooting; and the 2019 shooting in an El Paso, Texas Walmart were all fueled by white supremacy and racism.
