Phyllis Schlafly a ran for President in 1972 b created the Special Olympics c considered the defeat of the ERA as a victory for women's rights. d fought diligently for the passage of the ERA.

c. Considered the defeat of the ERA as a victory for women's rights.

Explanation:

Phyllis Schlafly was an American attorney, activist, and author who became famous for her disagreement over the Equal Rights Amendment. She would also be known for her "STOP ERA" protest that helped negate the passage of the ERA.

Phyllis Schlafly's stand against the ERA was that the amendment will prevent men from doing their jobs, like paying alimony and child support. The ERA was meant to give equal opportunities to both genders, which means men and women will be given equal opportunities even in works/jobs. This will lead to further 'freedom' of men in terms of supporting their children in cases of divorce. If the ERA is passed, then middle-class women will be left with no means of taking care of their children. The ERA works against the rights of women in their right to demand child support and alimony, separate restrooms, social benefits, etc.

So, despite feminist groups’ support for the ERA, Schlafly insisted that the defeat of the Amendment is the real victory for women’s groups.

Thus, the correct answer is option c.

d.

many people believed they were convicted solely because they were anarchists.
