For his refusal to authorize large scale relief programs
Answer:
the women
Explanation:
The Iroquois societies were unique among the North American civilizations in that the role of the women was much different. The women were held on high regard. They were well respected in the society. The Clan Mothers were the ones that had the power to appoint leader, as well as to strip the leader off its power. The women had their own possessions, and even after marriage they were keeping them, not being mixed with those of their husbands. The largest land owners were women. In general the Iroquois societies were matriarchal.
The Freedom riders were arrested and put in jail for 30 days because they broke a state law in Mississippi. This law called for segregated facilities for black and white citizens. The Freedom riders intentionally had black riders sit-in the whites only section of these facilities. This form of protest resulted in arrests in several states across the "Deep South."
