Answer:

Check Explanation

Explanation:

African American and Hispanics were not treated well in Texas. They were barred from some certain place in the society. They were confined to certain residential areas of towns. White men in East Texas used violence as a method of political control Against the African American and the Hispanics. Lynching became the punishment against all crimes committed against the committed communities. Blacks and Hispanics attended segregated and inferior "colored" and "Mexican" schools which were less inferior to the whites. Problems of land loss, lynchings, ethnic subordination, educational inequalities, and various other degradations were problems associated with African American and the Hispanics.

African American and Hispanics criticized segregationist policies and white injustices, using the newspaper labor organizations, self-help societies and Black state conventions issued periodic protests in the 1880s and 1890s.

Futher steps were taking when Black leaders established a chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Houston in 1912. A lot of branches of the organization were also open in Texas . Other movement such as the League of United Latin American Citizens, was established. In 1960s, Hispanics, blacks, and whites, attacked the slow pace of desegregation in the state and Governor John Connally's opposition to the pending civil-rights bill in Washington.

kompoz [17]
The Glorious Revolution and the English Bill of Rights are of great relevance to government in the United States since they inspired the Founding Fathers to devise a "limited government," of checks and balances--since they wanted to ensure that the rights of the people would be protected against tyranny.
