<span>Dr. King explains that he has read the recent statement published by clergymen in a Birmingham newspaper, describing Dr. King’s recent activities in the city as “unwise and untimely.” Though he does not usually respond to criticisms – he receives far too many for that to be practical – he believes these men are “of genuine good will” and hence do their criticisms deserve an answer (169).He first acknowledges the criticism that he is one of many “outsiders coming in” to cause trouble (their words). He explains his purpose: he is the president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), based in Atlanta but operating throughout the South. He describes the extent of the organization’s reach, and then explains that one of its affiliates in Birmingham had invited the SCLC to “engage in a nonviolent direct-action program” when racial issues grew difficult there. The SCLC answered the call, and hence does Dr. King insist that “I, along with several members of my staff, am here because I was invited here” (170).</span>

Which of these conditions helped to make Carter an unpopular president?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The condition that helped Carter become an unpopular president was the Iran hostage crisis, which portrayed him as a cold-hearted person and made an emphasis on his ability to deny the crisis that was being forced on the Iranian community through Shah Pahlavi.

Explanation:

Carter ignored the situation of Iran by saying that everything was fine and referred the country as “The oasis of peace in the middle east” while innocent people were being killed and tortured. This caused a group of Iranian students to kidnap a number of 52 Americans and held them hostage for 444 days, as a protest for Carter’s behavior.

Based on these writings, is there anything we can say for sure about the influence that Teotihuacan had on classic Maya society?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Even before most Maya sites had been established, Teotihuacan had established itself as a dynamic cultural center. Material culture, including architecture, ceramics, art, hieroglyphics inscriptions, and other artifacts found at Early Classic Maya sites, clearly reveals a connection between Teotihuacan and the Maya.
