Why did the US civil rights movement gain new momentum after World War II

History

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.

During World War I, the Russian army was​
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

pretty sure it was large, whether or not it was ill prepared to fight is up for debate. It's been a few years since I revised this, but I'm pretty sure that during the Schleiffen plan the German army relied on the Russians being too slow to defend themselves, however they were quicker than expected? due to this and the sheer size of the army itself I would say d, large and well prepared to fight. They were large enough that even if they were awful in combat they would still be a force to be reckoned with, as they could afford to supply men after men without running out, unlike the German army.

Which of the following statements supports the claim that the gap between the rich and poor nations of the world has gotten wide
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

2. A quarter of the countries with a GDP per capita of less than $1,000 in 1960 had growth rates of less than zero from 1960 to 1995

Explanation:

A GDP per capita of less than $1,000 is extremely low, and if a quarter these poor countries with such a low GDP per capita did not see any growth from 1960 to 1995, it means that the some of the poorest countries in the world in 1960 are still among the poorest in 1995.

At the same time, many advanced nations such as Japan and the United States saw great economic growth in the same period of time.

This two events have caused greater inequality among nations.
