How did some groups use democratic principles to resolve issues relating to their civil rights?

The correct answer for this question is this one:

Some groups use democratic principles to resolve issues relating to their civil rights by showing to the people around, including the government that everyone has their own dignity and rights, as a person --  that is by default. Everyone deserves to be heard and to speak.
Hope this helps answer your question and have a nice day ahead.
