Explanation:

1. "Most Black citizens of Montgomery refused to ride the buses for over a year." - This refers to the sacrifices that African Americans made during the Montgomery Bus Boycott. The boycott involved Black citizens refusing to use buses, which was a sacrifice of convenience and a stand against segregation.
2. "Dr. King’s house was bombed, and along with dozens of other protesters, he was thrown in jail." - This emphasizes the personal dangers and challenges faced by Dr. King and other activists. Bombing of his house and imprisonment are direct personal dangers and challenges.
3. "Two years later, the protests he led throughout Alabama caught the world’s attention." - This shows that the Civil Rights Movement gained international attention and support. When protests catch the world's attention, it means the movement is getting international notice and likely support.
4. "He went on to fight against poverty and the Vietnam War." - This shows that Dr. King expanded his activism beyond racial inequality to address larger social issues. Fighting against poverty and the Vietnam War are issues beyond just racial equality.
5. "We still struggle with racial equality to this day. But thanks to Dr. King and other Civil Rights leaders, we know that great change is possible." - This shows that not much progress in the struggle for racial equality was made after Dr. King’s assassination (since we still struggle) and also reflects the lasting impact of King (since his work showed change is possible, though the struggle continues). But more directly, the "we still struggle..." part aligns with the idea that progress was limited post - his assassination.
