This is part of a letter written by a famous African American, Jackie Robinson.

Considering that he talks about having patience, or not having, and the mistreating of "us" as a group, we can discard anything about activists. Generally, and obviously, blacks were not defenders of segregation and the letter doesn't bring up anything directly about the president.

In fact, he is generally speaking about how his ethnic group has been badly treated throughout the years. So the answer is:

B. the discrimination and bigotry faced by African Americans throughout history in the United States.

How did the repeal of the Missouri Compromise affect Kansas?
stira [4]

Answer:

The repeal of the commitment to Missouri affected Kansas because it allowed for an open conflict between abolitionists and slaveholders.

Explanation:

The Missouri Compromise, also called the 1820 Commitments, was an agreement passed in 1820 between pro-slavery and pro-abolitionist groups in the United States of America, primarily involving the regulation of slave labor in the western territories.

In 1850, the Missouri Compromise goes into crisis. California wanted to enter the Union as a free state, but it was located south of the parallel of 36 ° 30 '- that is, between the slave states. The war seemed close, but then a new agreement emerged: California was admitted with a free state, the other free states were forced to repatriate fugitive slaves, and New Mexico and Utah gained bylaws of territories and not states, that is, without own laws against or in favor of slavery.

The definitive crisis of the Missouri Compromise occurred in 1854 with the Kansas-Nebraska bill, authored by Douglas Douglas of Ilhinóis. Douglas proposed the Organization of Kansas and Nebraska as territories with freedom of choice, by popular decision, between being or not slave state. And as I encouraged the occupation, Douglas suggested that the railroad, still under construction, cut off the two territories. Congress passed the propositions, nullifying the Missouri Compromise. The confrontation between free states and slave states became then open and declared.
