    The correct answer is: his courage.

    Explanation:

    In the excerpt above, the author says that Mr. and Mrs. Hendricks were not intimidated, so Mr. Hendricks decided to act with courage and disobey the rules in order to keep fighting, although his friend's house was destroyed.

    We've Got a Job is a book written by Cynthia Levison, first time published in 2012. The book tells a story about Birmingham Children's March in 1963 when thousands of elementary, middle-school and high-school students went to streets to fight for their rights, to desegregate Birmingham, which was one of the most racist cities in America.
