Hi, I'm going to answer this with some of my general knowledge.

During the time of the World War and after, there was a lot of resentment of the government by the American people. They felt that our government was <u>too concerned with foreign affairs</u> when there were so many domestic problems happening at home: racism, sexism, homophobia etc.

Also, after the War, the<u> economy was booming</u> and healthy. More African-Americans were <u>apart of the middle class and stable</u> enough to concern themselves with the Civil Rights Movement.

One other thing is the rise of Civil Rights Activists like Martin Luther King or Malcolm X or groups like The Black Panthers at the time.

This helped propel the Civil Rights agenda.

How did the southern states that seeded justify leaving the union
coldgirl [10]
<span>When South Carolina seceded from the Union in 1860, the main justification of secession was that southerners believed secession was the only way they could preserve their institution of slavery. Not all southerners supported secession, however, but those who did argued that because the southern states were a part of the Union, their rights should be respected by the federal government.</span>
