Respuesta :

Answer:

b. had not pledged any action in this area during his campaign.

Explanation:

During his presidency, Kennedy's approach toward civil rights was seen as one of lacking commitment. Black people were strongly discriminated, segregated and deprived from many rights and it took him a long time to take action on the subject. Until finally, in June, 1963, he communicated his intentions to make legislative changes regarding this subject, but five months later was assasinated.
