Question

7 choose the answer that best completes the sentence below. ______ bayard rustin organized the march on washington in 1963, he planned and participated in the journey of reconciliation, a peaceful protest to challenge racial discrimination in interstate travel. a after b before c however d above all

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the timeline of Bayard Rustin's activities. The March on Washington was in 1963. The Journey of Reconciliation was an earlier civil - rights action. So we need a word that shows the Journey of Reconciliation happened before the March on Washington.

• Option A: "After" would mean the Journey happened after the March, which is incorrect.
• Option B: "Before" correctly shows the chronological order as the Journey was an earlier event than the 1963 March.
• Option C: "However" is a conjunction for contrast, not for showing time order, so it's incorrect.
• Option D: "Above all" is used to emphasize something as the most important, not for time order, so it's incorrect.

Answer:

B. Before
