To determine which chart best describes the key figures that influenced and contributed to the civil rights movement for Black Americans, let's analyze the entries provided for their accuracy regarding notable events and contributions.
1. **Claudette Colvin** is often recognized for her role as a young activist before Rosa Parks, but she did not organize the March on Washington or focus specifically on transportation rights in the context presented.
2. **Rosa Parks** is correctly described as the woman who refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus, which catalyzed the Montgomery Bus Boycott and was significant in ending segregation in public transportation.
3. **Martin Luther King Jr.** is correctly described as a leader of the Montgomery Bus Boycott and as a prominent figure during the March on Washington, where he delivered his famous speech and worked towards the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
4. **A. Phillip Randolph** is incorrectly portrayed in the chart that mentions Claudette Colvin, as he organized the March on Washington which aimed to influence employment in defense industries during World War II.
5. **Franklin Delano Roosevelt's** role in civil rights is noteworthy for the issuance of Executive Order 8802, prohibiting racial discrimination in defense industries, but his contributions are often framed within a different context than those of civil rights leaders.
Given this information, the best chart description would include the accurate representations of Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr., and potentially, A. Phillip Randolph with respect to their organizing efforts.
The third chart that mentions **A. Phillip Randolph's effort with the March on Washington, the contributions of Rosa Parks**, and **Martin Luther King Jr.'s leadership** is the most accurate in capturing key figures in the civil rights movement.
Therefore, the best choice based on historical contributions is the chart featuring:
- **A. Phillip Randolph's** organizing of a march on Washington,
- **Rosa Parks's** refusal to give up her seat,
- **Martin Luther King Jr.'s** leadership during the Bus Boycott and Speech at the March on Washington.
