The Vietnam War. It was a long debate over lowering the voting age from 21 to 18, which began during World War II and only intensified during the Vietnam War when young men who were practically being heavily obligated and sometimes forced/drafted to fight for their country were being denied the right to vote. 
“Old enough to fight, old enough to vote” became a common slogan for a youth voting rights movement, and in 1943 Georgia<span> became the first state to lower its voting age in state and local elections from 21 to 18.</span>

The Emancipation Proclamation Select one: a. Abolished slavery in the Confederacy. b. Was never ratified by Congress. c. Abolish
Eduardwww [97]

The correct answer is A) Abolished slavery in the Confederacy.

The Emancipation Proclamation abolished slavery in the Confederacy. During the tough times of conflict and confrontation during the American Civil War, United States President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863. This was a very important moment in the history of the United States in that a US President proclaimed that all the slaves in the Confederate states were free.

The proclamation only was valid in the Confederated states that had seceded from the Union, and of course, it was not taken into consideration until many years after the war had ended.

What marked the end of the Russian monarchy
jeka57 [31]
The main event that ended the Russian monarchy was the February Revolution. It was a spontaneous demonstration against the Tsar's government which turned riotous and spread to many other cities. The Tsar tried to order police and military forces to put down the riots, but they refused to obey him. In fact, many soldiers even joined in the riots. 

Tsar Nicholas realized that the only way to end the violence was to abdicate his throne. He signed the abdication papers in March 1917 ending 300 years of the Romanov monarchy. The Provisional Government was instituted to govern the country until a Constituent Assembly could be seated, but the Provisional Government was overthrown in the October Revolution also known as the Bolshevik Revolution. The Bolshevik Revolution is not the revolution which ended the Russian monarchy, because the monarchy had already ended 8 months earlier.

<span>In addition, the Tsar and his family were not killed during the Russian Revolution. They were kiled by the Bolsheviks during the Russian Civil War in July 1918, nine months after the October Revolution had ended.</span>

Answer:

In the late 1940s, some white country musicians began to experiment with the rhythms of the blues, a decades-old musical genre of rural southern black people. This experimentation led to the creation of a new musical form known as rockabilly; by the 1950s, rockabilly had developed into rock and roll.

Rock and roll music celebrated themes such as young love and freedom from the oppression of middle-class society. It quickly grew in favor among American teens during the 1950s, thanks largely to the efforts of disc jockey Alan Freed. Freed named and popularized rock and roll by playing it on the radio in Cleveland—where he also organized the first rock and roll concert—and later in New York.

The theme of rebellion against authority, present in many rock and roll songs, appealed to teens. In 1954, rock group Bill Haley and His Comets provided youth with an anthem for their rebellion with the song ”Rock Around the Clock.” The song, used in the 1955 movie Blackboard Jungle about a white teacher at a troubled inner-city high school, seemed to be calling for teens to declare their independence from adult control.

Haley illustrated how white artists could take musical motifs from African American musicians and achieve mainstream success. Teen heartthrob Elvis Presley rose to stardom doing the same. Thus, besides encouraging a feeling of youthful rebellion, rock and roll also began to tear down color barriers in popular culture, as white youths sought out African American musicians such as Chuck Berry and Little Richard.
