Use the same ideas as I've given in the post linked above in order to develop your answers well.
I have no idea about the songs (notice: no apostrophe), so the content will be up to you. I think you have the first and fourth sentences of your answer, but you need to include specific examples.
I wouldn't call it a nonviolent era -- especially since the song mentions King's assassination. I agree with the rest of your answer.
