The correct answers are B) ending segregation by eliminating “Jim Crow” laws, and C) protecting the equality and full citizenship of African Americans.
The goals that motivated the civil rights movement were ending segregation by eliminating “Jim Crow” laws and protecting the equality and full citizenship of African Americans.
African Americans were still suffering from many forms of segregation when some groups were formed to fight for their civil rights in the United States. This was the beginning of the American Civil Rights Movement, a series of protests and movements that initiated in 1846 and ended in 1968. African Americans were gaining some rights and positions in politics although they were strongly opposed by white supremacist groups.
