Answer:

The correct answer is D. A co-founder of the United Farm Workers

Explanation:

At age 19, César Chávez joined the Navy and served for two years. By the laws of racial segregation, enlisted Hispanics could only be painters or cleaning personnel. Chávez often referred to that stage as the worst of his life. When leaving the military life, he married Helen Fabela, with whom he had eight children. Like many immigrants, he chose to make his life close to his own and over the years returned to San Jose, California where he met two of his mentors: Father Donald McDonnell, with whom he instilled the idea of peaceful protest, making him know the teachings of Saint Francisco de Asis, Ghandi, and community leader Fred Ross.

Chávez took his first steps in the world of civil organizations in the Ross group of the Community Service Organization. His first task for many others was voter registration. In 1962 he founded, together with Dolores Huerta, the National Farm Workers Association, which later became the United Farm Workers.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The theme would be French culture, and more specifically, Parisian culture from 100 years ago. In culture, the historian would include not only music, but also paiting, theater, cinema, and so on.

The region would obviously be Paris, but also other regions of France, and even other countries, where Parisian music from the time might have had an influence.

And the period would be the first two or three decades of the XX century, which is the period that led to the development of Parisian music from 100 years ago.

Place yourself in this time period, What are the top three reasons that would push you to enlist to fight in the civil war?

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

One of my reasons that i would enlist to fight in the civil war is because i believe in equality. Slavery is something that should NEVER of been a thing to begin with. Even though it might not be in my self interest to fight in a war where i could possibly lose my life, I realize i would not just be fighting for my life, but for the lives of millions. Visualize a day in the of a slave and think how it would feel for people fighting for your freedom and know that you got to be apart of that and fighting a war that would change the lives of millions for the better is a great thing to be apart of.

Tasya [4]

Answer: False

Explanation:

The trial of the Scottsboro Boys serves as an example of a botched or ill performed trial, mainly due to the fact that those who were tried were black adolesents against a white jury, court and prosecutors. Though the trial was later proved to be ill conducted and the 9 teenagers pardoned when their innocence came to light, at the time extensive appeals and new trials were required to prevent them from being sentenced to death for the false acusation of raping two white women.
