5 0

Actually Tet was more of a political victory for the North. They launched a surprise attack on South Vietnam during the Tet holiday on January 30, 1968. They attacked not only military targets but towns and cities. Communist forces managed to storm the U.S. Embassy. Though a counterattack enabled the U.S. regain the territories assaulted by the North, the reaction at home was so negative that support for American involvement in the States dropped. This led to the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Vietnam and eventually the North conquered the South.

What does weary of the ‘Negro Question’” and “‘sick of carpet-bag’ government mean

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

"weary of the 'Negro Question'" and "'sick of carpet-bag' government." are related to the same political, social end economical event that happened in the USA after the end of the Civil War: The Reconstruction era. Congressional Reconstruction included the stipulation that to reenter the Union, former Confederate states had to ratify the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Congress also passed the Military Reconstruction Act, which attempted to protect the voting rights and civil rights of African Americans. Former Confederates resented the new state constitutions because of their provisions allowing for black voting and civil rights, where we can explain the "weary of the 'Negro Question'". Carpetbaggers were northerners who allegedly rushed South with all their belongings in carpetbags to grab the political spoils were more often than not Union veterans who had arrived as early as 1865 or 1866, drawn South by the hope of economic opportunity and other attractions that many of them had seen in their Union service. Many other so-called carpetbaggers were teachers, social workers, or preachers animated by a sincere missionary impulse.
