Correct Answer: B
Choice B is the best answer. The sentence compares "The suffrage movement" (singular noun phrase) to "the civil rights movement" (singular noun phrase).
Choice A is incorrect because it compares a "movement" to "leaders." Choice C is incorrect because it compares a "movement" to "people." Choice D is incorrect because "activism" is a concept, not the specific movement itself.
