How did McNeil and the other civil rights activists respond to their treatment at the Woolworth's lunch counter?

They responded in a peaceful and passive manner, not leaving the lunch counter until they were served.

Explanation:

McNeil was a young African American who, along with three other friends, also African-Americans, decided to eat at a diner in a lunch counter. However, the cafeteria employees refused to comply with their request, because they believed that it was not right for blacks to eat in a place frequented by whites.

McNeil and his friends did not accept the racism they were suffering in that place and refused to get up and leave. Peacefully and passively, they claimed their right to have access to any establishment and to be served like any American citizen.
