Answer:

Fort Sumter, in the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina, continued to fly the United States flag, even as Confederate forces surrounded it. Lincoln decided to send provisions but no additional troops or ordnance to the fort unless resistance was met. Unwilling to tolerate a U.S. garrison in Southern territory, Confederates began shelling the fort in the pre-dawn hours of April 12, 1861, and Union guns responded. The Civil War had begun.

"Oxford Town" is about the racial discrimination of James Meredith in 1962 when he became the first African American to attend t
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The song "Oxford Town" was composed and sung by Bob Dylan in 1962. Though this song was originally about the James Meredith case, Dylan later commented that "<em>It deals with the Meredith case, but then again it doesn't... I wrote that when it happened, and I could have written that yesterday. It's still the same</em>".

The James Meredith case is one that rocked the whole nation. James Meredith was qualified to attend the University of Mississippi but since he was the first black man to be enrolled in the university, he wasn't given admission. He took the matter to court, leading the government to support him. At that time, the racial case of blacks versus white was a dominating and burning issue. This new case compelled the government to agree with the black man, leading to the blacks growing more confident of their fight for equality.

And with the increased interest and popularity of his case, James Meredith  had to go for his classes accompanied by the National Guard. The racial controversy over a black man attending an all white university did not seem to go well with the white men who organized riots and demonstrations. This led to massive protests, resulting in the death of two people. The result was the deployment of the military by the government.

Which best describes what many immigrants encountered in US cities in the early 1800s? spacious and clean apartment buildings cr
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Crowded and unsafe living conditions.

Explanation:

Most immigrants in the early 1800s would probably be very poor, especially after spending the money to travel to an entirely new country. Most immigrants were probably escaping from corrupt governments, looking for religious freedom, or simply wanting a fresh start. They mostly travelled in big groups, either families or neighbors or small communities, and because of this, their housing was probably cramped, run down, and very quickly and poorly built to account for this influx of new people pouring into the US.
