What was one similarity between Civil Rights activists of the 1950s and 1960s and antiwar activists of the 1960s and 1970s? Both were supported by a silent majority of the American public. Both faced significant resistance from state governments in the South. Both used mass protests to get their message to leaders and the public. Both felt that legal challenges would be more successful than direct political action.

Answer:

Option C. One similarity between Civil Rights activists of the 1950's and 1960's and antiwar activists of the 1960's and 1970's is that both used mass protests to get their message to leaders and the public.

Step-by-step explanation:

During the 1950's and 1960's the American Civil Rights movement used mass protest demonstrations to stand up and demand change against racial segregation and discrimination in the United States. Similarly the opposition against the involvement of the United States in the Vietnam War grew into a national movement that mainly used massive peaceful protests to make their opinions heard.
