Question: How did young people in the south, both black and white, voice their rejection of “the whole stigma of being inferior” during 1960 and the first half of 1961?
Answer: <u>Young people in the south, both black and white staged lunch-counter sit ins.
</u>
Explanation: On February 1st 1960, four African American students sat down at a lunch counter where the official rule was to give service only to whites. The four were denied service, however, these men refused to give up their seats. This was their way of protesting and demonstrating their rejection towards “the whole stigma of being inferior”. On February 5th, about 300 students joined the protest by doing the same action at the lunch counter and other local businesses. This spread quickly to college towns in both the South and North. Young black and white people united and began their peaceful protest against segregation in beaches, libraries, hotels, malls, etc.
Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
After the completion of the railways, there was a big problem facing this sector, there was a disparity in time across the country; time was locally determined by some local solar time frame which were different from one locality to another. To tackle this issue,there need to be some sort of standard time. if not, there is no way to predict when moving passengers and freight,train will arrive; so some sort of coordinate to follow so that things work out right in determine and predicting schedules is needed.
In order to make their schedules more standard, the railroads divided the United States into time zones( the time zone was divided into four standard time zone)
The division of the United States into Standard time zones was first done by the railroads to end the confusion of dealing with thousands of local times.
Before embarking on the series of court cases that argued for his freedom, Scott’s life was the rootless existence typical of many slaves. Born around 1799 in Virginia, he moved with his owner Peter Blow to Alabama and eventually to St. Louis, where he was sold to U.S. Army Dr. John Emerson in the early 1830s.
Like many antebellum officers, Emerson was transferred from post to post through Western states and territories. During those journeys, Scott married a slave woman named Harriet Robinson in 1836. When Emerson died in 1843, Scott, by then the father of two children, likely hoped the doctor’s will would manumit him—and his family—but it did not. Scott then offered Emerson’s brother-in-law and executor, J.A. Sanford, $300 hoping to buy his own freedom. But the offer was turned down. Scott decided to take the matter to the courts.
By 1846, Scott was living in St. Louis in service to Emerson’s widow. He filed suit with the state of Missouri, claiming that since he had lived with Emerson in Illinois—where slavery was outlawed by the 1787 Northwest Ordinance—and Fort Snelling in Minnesota—where the Missouri Compromise outlawed slavery in 1820—he was entitled to his freedom. In an interesting twist, the children of Peter Blow, Scott’s first owner, provided the slave family financial assistance.
