Answer:

Explanation:

From 1966 onward, African American leaders began objecting

to the war as it became clear that both the war and the funding it required were hurting their struggle

for equality. Clear, statistical evidence of racial bias within the military, especially the high

casualty rates and draft rates of Black soldiers, angered and emboldened the radical activists in the

movement, which had previously been kept in check by the promise of legislative change.

Moderates of the civil rights movement avoided condemning the disparate statistics within the

military, in order to maintain support for President Johnson and his Great Society. The explicitly

revolutionary groups, largely motivated by the disproportionate statistics in the military, opposed

the Vietnam War and the government that perpetuated it on anticolonial and antiracist grounds,

thus breaking the consensus of civil rights organizations because of a differing perception of

racism in the military

What happens if the police illegally seize evidence in violation of the fourth amendment?

Tom [10]

In case that the police or any other authority proceeds against the right granted in the Fourth Ammendment, their findings, having been illegally obtained, can not be presented before any court as evidence against any individual, nor a judge could allow to have them as evidence in a trial, because this would ignore the Sixth Ammendment by violating the right to an impartial trial.
