During the children’s crusade in birmingham in may of 1963, what happened? a. four young girls were killed. b. members of the ku klux klan were arrested. c. the police used fire hoses on protesters. d. residents reacted peacefully to protests.

The correct answer is:  C. The police used fire hoses on protesters.

In the 1963 Birmingham Campaign, led by Martin Luther King Jr., African American school children marched for desegregation and met with law enforcement´s high-pressure water cannons and attack dogs.  

The negative media attention prompted Pres. Kennedy to call for a civil rights bill prohibiting racial discrimination and segregation in schools, employment, and public areas, which eventually culminated in the Civil Rights Act of 1964.  

The answer is C. the police used fire hoses on protesters. I got this right on a test that I just took. And if this also helps its for the test from edg.

Hopefully this helped better then the joker who didn't answer the question :)
