Answer:

At one of Booker's jobs in a regional coal mine, he first overheard two workers address the Hampton Institute. It was a school for previous slaves in southeastern Virginia founded by General Samuel Chapman. Chapman had been a general of black troops for the Union during the Civil War and was dedicated to improving educational opportunities for African Americans.

Booker wanted to be just like Samuel, so in the year 1872, Washington walked 500 miles to Hampton. He went on to study at Wayland Seminary in Washington, D.C. Booker had fascinated and satisfied Samuel Chapman, so he was invited to return to Hampton as a teacher in the year 1879. Chapman suggested Washington for a role as an administrator of a new academy for African Americans in Tuskegee, Alabama. It was called the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute.

Summarize three significant events during the civil right movement in the 1950s and 1960s. what did these events lead to? I WILL
hram777 [196]

Answer:

In 1955, the Montgomery Bus Boycott began. In 1961, the Albany Movement  protested the segregation policies in Albany, Ga. In 1965, Martin L King Jr. started his I Have a Dream Speech. These led to the ending of racial and sex segregation/discrimination.

Explanation:

The civil rights movement in the United States was a decades-long struggle by African Americans to end legalized racial discrimination, disenfranchisement and racial segregation in the United States. The movement has its origins in the Reconstruction era during the late 19th century, although the movement achieved its largest legislative gains in the mid-1960s after years of direct actions and grassroots protests. The social movement's major nonviolent resistance campaigns eventually secured new protections in federal law for the human rights of all Americans.

How did her environment affect her ability to:________. a. Use language to communicate b. Develop motor skills (walking, writing
professor190 [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Your question is incomplete. You did not specify who Genie is. You did not add more information to know what you are talking about: if this is a character of a book, a character of a movie, or if it is a person or not.

However, doing some deep research trying to help you, we found that Genie is the main character of a documentary called "Genie: Secret of the Wild Child."

The documentary refers to the real-life case of a girl who spent most of her childhood in confinement, inside a bedroom. So this environment affected her ability to use language to communicate because nobody taught her how to speak, she lived alone. No examples to follow. That is why never really developed motor skills such as walking, writing, or playing. She also never develop bonds with people. She was completely isolated by cruel people. Of course, when police knew about this case in Los Angeles, California, Genie's parents were accused of child abuse.
