The correct answer is: "King’s death further encouraged Black Power movement support and riots"

After the assassination of one of the main leaders of the Civil Right Movement, Martin Luther King Jr, in 1968, the anger in the movement grew, and together with it, the strenght of the protests and actions carried out. Luther King had never promoted violence, on the contrary, he had always conducted civil disobedience and nonviolence actions.

After the assassination, many voices inside the movement claimed that it was the moment to change the nonviolence format. Others believe that the manner to honour Luther King was to perpetuate his legacy and protest peacefully. <u>Despite many leaders claimed for calm, a wave of riots emerged in more than 100 US cities. </u>

<u>Moreover, the Black Power movement increased its influence. </u>This movement promoted the empowerement of the US black citizens by creating social and political institutions to pursue the collective interests of black people and to put their values and convictions over those from other communities. It aimed to end oppresion by creating a self-sufficent network just for black people. In some sense it was said that this movement promoted segregation and black supremacy.

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

<u> conflict between Native Americans and English in Virginia.</u>

Explanation:

The constant attacks of Native American tribes in Virginia in 1676 provoked the reaction of the colonists, led by Bacon. They attacked the main defense site of the Indians and killed about one hundred  and fifty of them. When the colonial authorities opposed this and arrested Bacon, an uprising broke out. After Bacon was liberated, some 400 uprisings marched with him, insisting that they had the right to defend themselves against the Indians.

Although an agreement was made, Bacon's rebellion was suffocated by the authorities.
