Detailed explanation-3: -The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was founded in 1960 in the wake of student-led sit-ins at segregated lunch counters across the South and became the major channel of student participation in the civil rights movement.
Detailed explanation-4: -As SNCC became more active politically, its members faced increased violence.
