Lynna [10]

I could add a fourth category that you could consider in your answer if you are allowed to do that.

Fourth: the leaders of the movement

In point of fact, all of them were effective. The Supreme court heard many cases on the right to vote and the right to be treated as though color were not a determining factor on voting rights. These cases helped bring about the Civil Rights act of 1964 and the Voting rights act of 1965. It put teeth into the 15th amendment, all of which you should look up.

Martin Luther King made a huge impact on Civil Rights. One of key ideas that he had was civil disobedience. Even that was strongly opposed by people like Governor George Wallace. That aside, civil disobedience was a method that peaceful people could tie into and participate in. Look up Rosa Parks as the primary example of someone very welling to stand her ground.

When you look up the Civil Rights act you will see that the Federal Government played a key role in making and enforcing key laws.

The people were ready to determine their rights as citizens. The time was right to unite the participants. Even students themselves were involved in "the people" many of whom were from many parts of the United States. You could google students civil rights movement. People your age were very influential.

Why was the Massachusetts bay colony so successful immediately?
Harman [31]

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!!!!

Explanation:

The Puritans of the Massachusetts Bay colony hoped to purify the Church of England and then return to Europe with a new and improved religion. These Puritans were more initially successful than other colonies. For example, they brought enough supplies from the outset, they arrived in the springtime instead of the winter, and they had good leadership. The local government and the church were very closely related, and only church members could vote for the General Court even though everyone was required to pay taxes. Old Testament law became the law of the community. Even though they left England to pursue religious freedom, the Massachusetts Bay Puritans were known for their religious intolerance and general suspicion of democracy. They generally felt that the common people were incapable of governing themselves.
