Write a brief essay that describe the different tactics of the civil rights movement

The Civil Rights Movement utilized a range of tactics to address different problems. For example, nonviolent direct action was critical in challenging segregation in public accommodations. Direct action disrupted the status quo and made it difficult for those in power to ignore the issue of segregation. The best examples are the sit-ins and freedom rides. In some cases, the sit-ins led to immediate changes in local policy and widespread direct action protests eventually led to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (which banned segregation in public accommodations). The freedom rides forced the Kennedy administration and the FCC to actually enforce two Supreme Court decisions (regarding interstate travel) that were being ignored by white southerners.  hope it helps
