Answer:
The Civil Rights Movement was a movement that worked to improve living conditions and rights for the black population of the United States. The movement had its heyday in the United States between 1954 and 1968, where significant progress was made in obtaining better civil rights for African Americans, on an equal footing with whites.
Two of the movement's major victories came in the form of legislation. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 banned discrimination based on race, religion, gender or national origin in the labor market and prohibited unequal demands of black and white citizens in registering citizens as voters. The law also prohibited racial segregation in schools, workplaces and public housing. The following year came the Voting Rights Act, which reestablished and protected minority suffrage by allowing federal oversight of voter registration and voting in areas where minorities had historically been under-represented in elections.
One of the movement's leading figures was the priest Martin Luther King, who came into the media spotlight in connection with the 1955-1956 bus boycott in Montgomery. This campaign was the first time the movement achieved a major victory against the Jim Crow system in the Southern States.
Answer:
The brunt of the negative effects were experienced by the Native Americans.
Explanation:
The idea that it was the destiny of Americans to expand westwards made them disregard the centuries old territorial and cultural boundaries of the aboriginal people. This expansion wiped out complete tribes, caused new tensions, and many wars. It made the expansionist greedy and entitled which continued to fuel the hunger for expansion. This also created tensions with bordering Mexico. This also caused an increase in slavery as more arable land was rapidly acquired and manual labour greatly increased in demand.
