Answer:

B) "nonviolent resistance"

Step-by-step explanation:

Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King were two activists that fought hard pacifically for the rights of their people. Neither used violence and urged their followers to do the same, non-violent resistance was their way of doing things, without a sword/withouth a gun, are the phrases that clarify that in the text.
