Nonviolent demonstrations, such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the March on Washington, galvanized public support and raised awareness of racial injustices in the United States. These peaceful protests showcased the determination and resilience of civil rights activists, drawing national attention to issues of segregation and voting discrimination. The widespread media coverage and public sympathy they generated pressured lawmakers to address civil rights issues, ultimately leading to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. These landmark legislations aimed to eliminate discrimination and ensure voting rights for African Americans.
