"Riots broke out in more than one hundred cities across the United States as people grieved."

Explanation: King's assassination on April 4, 1968, sparked widespread unrest and urban riots nationwide. The other statements are false — the movement did not disband, many activists shifted toward more militant or Black Power approaches rather than renewed faith in nonviolence, and Robert F. Kennedy did not assume King's role.
