Maria Rasmussen · Answer 1

The correct answer is d. sparked similar successful demonstrations throughout the south.

There was no violence in North Carolina and as stores started losing a lot of money because of bad publicity since they were racists they abandoned their policies after a few days. This inspired many other places to try and do the same thing and most were successful without any violence, but there were violent instances in other places too.
