Answer:

As an immediate reaction to Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination in 1968, a wave of riots in different American cities took place, although the most significant riots took place in Washington DC.

Explanation:

Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee, on April 4, 1968, just four years after the signing of the Civil Rights Act and with a country still divided by racial segregation. The African-American community in Washington DC reacted violently to the news and for three days maintained a protest that devastated part of the city.

13 people died, hundreds were injured and 7,600 were arrested. It took more than 13,000 members of the Army, the Marine Corps and the National Guard to regain control of the city.

During the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, United States President John F. Kennedy and USSR leader Nikita Khrushchev had to be firm and cautious in making their decisions. The world was on the brink of a nuclear war. The US decided to quarantine Cuba. US Navy ships blockade the ships coming to the island to certify that they had no nuclear weapons on them. The USSR threatened t launch the missiles. The negotiations between the government of the United States and the Soviet Union were tense all the time until finally, both presidents reached an agreement.
