D. Gilmore’s cooking provided food for civil rights activists and helped to fund transportation during the bus boycott.

Explanation:

Georgia Gilmore was a cook less known for her contribution to the cause of the bus boycott during the Civil Rights Movement. In the text "Meet The Fearless Cook Who Secretly Fed and Funded- The Civil Rights Movement", Maria Godoy recounts how Gilmore helped save and maintain the boycott.

Gilmore used her resources as a cook to help feed the protesters and also provide money for their alternative transportation systems. She also influenced many young girls to sell food and make them involved in the boycott. Not only that, when she took the stand to testify for Dr. Martin Luther King, she lost her job but still continued to cook and help serve the movement.
