Is this part of The Cyclops of Homer’s Odyssey? If so, Odysseus most likely revealed his name so that Poseidon would know that him and his crew had harmed his son (Polyphemus, the cyclops) and weren’t beaten down by Polyphemus. When Odysseus started screaming stuff at Polyphemus like his name and all, his crew told him to stop since Polyphemus had recently broke off a piece of a mountain and threw it at his ship (meaning that he was extremely powerful and could very well destroy them).

Compare and contrast the civil war and the civil rights movement.
yan [13]

Answer:

One hundred-fifty years ago, competing visions for the country and conflicting definitions of freedom led to a war that threatened the very existence of the United States. The nation was shattered into North and South by blue and gray. Fifty years ago, the streets of American cities ran red with blood again. From 2011-2015, the National Park Service joined the rest of the country in commemorating these major events that changed the nation forever–and continue to challenge it today. To honor these sacrifices, among many other special events, 40,000 people marched across the killing fields of Pickett’s Charge

at Gettysburg, and 50,000 marched across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma.

Explanation:

Though the Civil War began the movement to extend equality to African Americans, the promises of the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments provide easier to accomplish in theory rather than in practice. The promising start towards racial equality soon faltered during the tensions of Reconstruction and laws were soon enacted across the country which enforced segregation of the races and the second-class status of African Americans.

Today, nearly 150 years since the end of the Civil War, people of all races, colors, creeds and beliefs continue the struggle to make America a nation where truly "all men are created equal."
