C
Marchers caused the president to speak to the country about participating in the marches.
D

Explanation
The excerpt says Johnson discussed how the issue was not limited to one race or one region; it affected America as a whole. This supports choice B: the events led him to recognize that the issue affected the whole country. The passage does not say the marchers asked him to give a speech or that he urged people to join the marches.
