Many women played important roles in the Civil Rights Movement, from leading local civil rights organizations to serving as lawyers on school segregation lawsuits. Their efforts to lead the movement were often overshadowed by men, who still get more attention and credit for its successes in popular historical narratives and commemorations. Many women experienced gender discrimination and sexual harassment within the movement and later turned towards the feminist movement in the 1970s. The Civil Rights History Project interviews with participants in the struggle include both expressions of pride in women’s achievements and also candid assessments about the difficulties they faced within the movement. After the American Civil War and the subsequent abolition of slavery in the 1860s, the Reconstruction Amendments to the United States Constitution granted emancipation and constitutional rights of citizenship to all African Americans, most of whom had recently been enslaved. For a short period of time, African American men voted and held political office, but they were increasingly deprived of civil rights, often under the so-called Jim Crow laws, and African Americans were subjected to discrimination and sustained violence by white supremacists in the South. Over the following century, various efforts were made by African Americans to secure their legal and civil rights. In 1954, the separate but equal policy, which aided the enforcement of Jim Crow laws, was substantially weakened and eventually dismantled with the United States Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education ruling and other subsequent rulings which followed.[1] Between 1955 and 1968, nonviolent mass protests and civil disobedience produced crisis situations and productive dialogues between activists and government authorities. Federal, state, and local governments, businesses, and communities often had to immediately respond to these situations, which highlighted the inequities faced by African Americans across the country. opinion: Black men DID have it better than women but black men still had it kinda rough
C. God created the lamb
The poem starts with the question "Little Lamb, who made thee?" which is later answered in the form of an analogy in the second stanza of the poem:
"Little Lamb I'll tell thee!He is called by thy name, For he calls himself a Lamb: He is meek & he is mild, He became a little child: I a child & thou a lamb, We are called by his name. Little Lamb God bless thee. Little Lamb God bless thee."
It should be noted that the Lamb is what Jesus is called in the Gospel of John, the poem states that, "He is called by thy name, / For he calls himself a Lamb" and according to the Holy Trinity there is God as the Father, God as the Son, and God as the Holy Spirit so we can see how the Lamb refers to God here. There is a further cross between the Lamb, God and Jesus in the phrase "He became a little child" referring to God as Jesus. Lastly, "meek" and "mild" are also values of the Christian belief attributed to Jesus and consequently God.

Answer:
Coach told us we should stay lose before the championship match, and that we should think soothing thoughts. "The best way to lose a big game is to forget and have fun," he said. "That's one of the main principals I stick to: Enjoy yourselves." Now, the other team is over there in their locker room. They're jumping around and screaming, but that's not who we are, we're laid-back dudes. That's why last year when I took this job, I choose a surfing beagle as our mascot. Now let's go out there and have a swell time. Who's with me?
