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.

Stels [109]

Answer:

Confederate General James Longstreet ___________________.

a) has no statues dedicated to him in the South because he joined the Republican Party after the Civil War.

Explanation:

General James Longstreet honorably served the US Army before joining the Confederate forces in the prosecution of the American Civil War of 1861 — 1865.  After the civil war, Longstreet criticized Robert E. Lee’s war tactics.  He later gave his support to Lincoln’s Republican party in the interest of his former friend's (Ulysses S. Grant) 1868 presidential campaign.  These two actions caused him some repeated attacks on his character in the South.  However, he later served as the US Turkish ambassador as well as a railroad commissioner.  He died in 1904 at the age of 82.

Question 5 (30 points)

Between the late 1940s and the early 1990s, the Cold War era drastically changed Europe. The nations of Europe would have undoubtedly altered over that time, but without the consequences and influence of the Cold War, the changes would not have been as significant. Following the devastation of World War Two, the US provided billions of dollars in economic assistance that helped revive Western Europe under the Marshall plan. However, since countries who took Marshall assistance promised to share economic plans and utilize the cash to buy American goods, the USA's true goal was to solidify its dominance in Europe. Additionally, the rising popularity of communism in Western Europe was weakened by this increased riches. For instance, in France, the communist party had an estimated 1 million members by 1949.

But since the Soviet Union prevented countries in its zone of influence from accepting Marshall Plan help, the Marshall Plan exposed the first serious rift in Europe. Although they provided comparable assistance, it was insufficient, and Eastern Europe's economy started to deteriorate as a result. The two superpowers also designated their respective territories. Both Hungary and Czechoslovakia organized rallies and uprisings against communist government, and in each instance, the USSR ruthlessly suppressed them. It's conceivable that the UN would have adopted a more direct strategy, similar to what was seen in Korea, if the tension and threat of the cold war hadn't existed. However, in Europe, such an intervention was improbable.

Germany was split into the east (the GDR) and west (the FRG) for the duration of the Cold War, and some Germans still sense this division even now, over 40 years after reunification. The Cold War was such a huge and dramatic struggle that it is possible to argue that it influenced how the 21st century looks now. The impacts of it have not only been felt in Europe but also across the world over the past 20 years. Everything was impacted by the Cold War.

Do you feel that immigration and border control should fall within the jurisdiction of the states or of the federal government?
MrRa [10]
Illegal immigration is a problem of the entire federation, not just of the state where the immigrant has entered. That is because the taxes are collected on a federal level and budged distribution is done on a federal level. That means that if a state allows illegal immigration, which usually comprises of people in the gray zone economy, it will harm the people from other states because the immigrants would not be paying taxes and the other states would be receiving less.
