D:Langston Hughes
Marylyn, a bit of advice. Don't take other student's word for answers to your questions. The first reason is that they may be wrong (often are). The second is that, as in this case, it's cheating to give each other the answers. In both cases this morning, they happen to be right, but you should not trust them.
Ida B. Wells was a very important woman. You may want to read this short biography. She's a very admirable woman! http://www.biography.com/people/ida-b-wells-9527635#related-video-gallery

To determine the correct answer, we need to look at each person and their contributions to the civil rights movement.
A: Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, poet, and philosopher known for his belief in civil disobedience. He has been credited with influencing figures such as Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr., who in turn played significant roles in the nonviolent civil rights movement.
B: Ida B. Wells was an African American journalist, suffragist, and civil rights activist. While she fought against racial injustice and is known for her work against lynching, she did not specifically contribute to nonviolent methods within the civil rights movement.
C: John F. Kennedy was the 35th President of the United States. While he supported civil rights and played a role in passing civil rights legislation, he did not explicitly inspire nonviolent methods within the civil rights movement.
D: Langston Hughes was an American poet, social activist, and playwright. While he advocated for civil rights and highlighted racial issues in his works, he did not directly contribute to nonviolent methods within the civil rights movement.
Based on this information, the correct answer is B: Ida B. Wells. She fought against racial injustice but did not specifically inspire nonviolent methods within the civil rights movement.
