zepelin [54]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

Why does Dr. King find it "amusing to me when a negro man says he cant demonstrate with us because if someone hit hi he would fight back?"

Here civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr is referring to fact that some African American people did not want to participate in his protests and demonstrations because they pacifists, non-violent protests. So these people did like the fact that if they received any aggression from the police, they could not respond in the same way.

Dr, King affirmed that many

African American people had to suffer humiliations every day, and despite that, they had the character and high orals to respond with dignity, not with fear.

Dr. Kimg was criticized for his non-violent approach to protest. bit also was supported by millions of Americans that understood that more violence would not produce anything good for Dr. King's movement. With his non-violent approach, Dr. King was trying to emulate Mahatma Gandhi.

AysviL [449]

This is known as the Anaconda Plan.

This military strategy, developed by Union General Winfield Scott, was meant to starve the Confederacy out of their resources. Essentially, Scott felt that if the Confederacy could not trade for goods with other countries they would not be able to survive. This is due to the Confederacy's reliance on cotton as their main cash crop.

This strategy helps to explain why the US wanted to blockade trade with other countries as well as why the Union wanted to control the Mississippi River, as they knew control of this waterway could negatively impact the Confederacy's ability to transport/obtain resources.
