While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:<br/><br/>* African American women played prominent roles in the Civil Rights Movement, including at the famous 1963 March on Washington.<br/>* Civil rights activist Anna Hedgeman, one of the march's organizers, was a political adviser who had worked for President Truman.<br/>* Civil rights activist Daisy Bates was a well-known journalist and advocate for school desegregation.<br/>* Hedgeman worked behind the scenes to make sure a woman was included in the lineup of speakers at the march.<br/>* Bates was the sole woman to speak, delivering a brief but memorable address to the cheering crowd.<br/><br/>The student wants to compare the two women's contributions to the March on Washington. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?<br/><br/>* Hedgeman and Bates contributed to the march in different ways; Bates, for example, delivered a brief but memorable address.<br/>* Hedgeman worked in politics and helped organize the march, while Bates was a journalist and school desegregation advocate.<br/>* Although Hedgeman worked behind the scenes to make sure a woman speaker was included, Bates was the sole woman to speak at the march.<br/><br/>D. Many African American women, including Bates and Hedgeman, fought for civil rights, but only one spoke at the march.
