rove that something is impossible—all you know is that [it] hasn’t been done yet. People said no one could scale Mount Everest, but in 1953, Sir Edmund Hilary and Tenzing Norgay gazed down upon the world from its summit. People said that man could not fly, but in 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright made the first sustained powered flight in a heavier-than-air machine. People said, “Okay, we admit that someone could climb Mount Everest, and we admit that man has learned to fly, but no one will ever, ever walk on the face of the moon.” If we can send three men a quarter of a million miles away and bring them home safely, is there any great task we cannot accomplish?

galben [10]

Answer:

Between that time Alabama had witnessed bombings in Birmingham and there was a face off between Wallace and Federal Forces over the matter of the University of Alabama.

Explanation:

George Corley Wallace was born on 25th August 1919. He was a supporter of the Jim Crow laws of segregation. In 1962, Wallace was selected for governor and took his governorship on the promise of keeping with segregation and economic issues. According to the author, when in 1958, Wallace stood against John Patterson, he denied using segregation and race as a tool but after realizing the power of this tool he supported it when he again stood for the election in 1962. In his governance, he denied the enrollment of black students at the University of Alabama.

<u>On 15th September 1963, Birmingham witnessed bombings at the Street Baptist Church that killed four young girls and left many injured. The church was the congregation of black people and also a place where civil rights leaders would gather. There was a face-off between Wallace and Federal forces during that time.</u>

in at least 150 words, discuss the story of orestes and agamemnon. explain the relevance of their story to that of telemachus an
kobusy [5.1K]
Agamemnon was the leader of the Greek troops in the Trojan wars and Orestes was his son. When Agamemno returned from the war, he was murdered by his wife's lover in conjunction with his wife. Orestes could not stop them but he seeked vengeance for his father. After a long time, he found them and avenged his father while killing them. He killed his mother, but Greek mythology claims that his act was just and he was spared the remorse and the guilt. There are a lot of similarities with the Ulysses/Telemachus father son pair. Ulysses was also one of the leaders of the excursion to Troy. He still has not returned home, but in a sense the suitors of Penelope are marring his estate and his reputation. While Penelope is faithful to Ulysses, the suitors by taking hold of the palace and committing their shameful acts are dishonoring Ulysses. In the same context, Telemachus is asked just like Orestes to restitute his father's honor, regardless of whether he is alive or dead. Athena is helping him and encouraging him with this example and he himself feels the need to save his father's honor.
