The Selma-to-Birmingham March was the event that forced John F. Kennedy to take meaningful action in support of the civil rights movement.

<h3>What was the Selma-to-Birmingham March?</h3>

It was a civil right movement that occurred more than 50 years ago on March 7, 1965

During the march, over 100 people gathered and marched from Selma to the capital city of Montgomery to ensure that African Americans could exercise their constitutional right to vote even in the face of a segregationist system that wanted to make it impossible.

The event led to the passage of Civil Rights Act that prohibited both racial and sexual discrimination in employment and public institutions.

Hence, the Selma-to-Birmingham March was the event that forced John F. Kennedy to take meaningful action in support of the civil rights movement.

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Kerosene allowed better lighting throughout the country.

Explanation:

When kerosene refinement became possible, kerosene became a very cheap and affordable fuel for virtually all citizens of the country, making it a strong fuel to be used in lamps, when the country did not have an electric lighting system efficient as today.

In some underdeveloped countries where electricity is still deficient or poorly distributed, kerosene is still used to light houses at night when sunlight is not available.
