The correct response is: **King believed in civil disobedience, while Malcolm X believed violence was sometimes appropriate.**

Martin Luther King, Jr. advocated for nonviolent resistance and civil disobedience as a means to achieve civil rights, while Malcolm X, especially in his early years and during his time with the Nation of Islam, expressed the view that self-defense and, at times, violence could be justified in the struggle for racial equality.
