In the 1960s and 1970s, the U.S. witnessed a rise of public interest groups, due to the progressive spirit of the time where a good number of them established their offices after 1960 and opened their doors after 1970s. The interest groups comprised of:  professional associations, public interest groups, business and agricultural groups, labor groups, ideological groups, and public-sector groups. Several factors determined the growth interest groups in the United States. First, The U.S. is heterogeneous in several aspects: its geography, climate, economic potential, culture, ethnicity, and religions. The heterogeneity resulted in political, socio-economic and cultural divisions which led to the evolution of several interest groups, each with unique objectives.

Public interest groups predominantly seek to influence public policy and influence government decisions, and in the 1960s and 1970s, the civil rights and antiwar movements triggered the rise of public interest groups, as a response to unpopular government policies.

In the 1980s, multiculturalism seemed a danger to the nation. Books filled the shelves warning that its rise on university campuses signaled no less than the closing of the American mind. Two decades later, it was fodder for satire. Cartoons like “The Boondocks” and “South Park” depicted multiculturalist teachers as if they were clueless white hippies.

But before all of that, back in the early 1970s, it was a genuine counterculture led by a small avant-garde of artists and writers.

For a long time, they didn’t even have a name for what they were doing. There were lively scenes going on in Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco—all cities that had critical masses of young people of color, universities where programs like Afro-American studies or ethnic studies were taking root, and community centers that served as hubs for artistic and activist expression.

The San Francisco Bay Area was the real beating heart of what would become the multiculturalism movement. It was there in 1968 that students at San Francisco State College launched a campus-wide strike that lasted five months, the longest in U.S. history, as they demanded the creation of a Black Studies and a School of Ethnic Studies.

Which statements accurately describe the climate of the Andean region? Choose all answers that are correct. The higher the eleva
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The higher the elevation, the cooler the temperatures.

Temperatures in the region range from very hot to well below freezing.

Altitude's greatest impact is on the amount of precipitation the region experiences.

Explanation:

The climate is extremely diverse and depends on the landscape of a particular area. Daily fluctuations are very large (up to 20°C) .

One can observe different climatic conditions as the height increases - from moderate temperate zones to cold. The height of the Andean mountain range mainly affects the climatic diversity of the Andean region, but also affects the aridity of the coast, preventing the passage of rain from the east (from Selva).
