What connection does the author draw between Gilmore actions and the success of the Montgomery Bus Boycott? Cite evidence from t
levacccp [35]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there is no text attached we can say that the connection between Gilmore's actions and the success of the Montgomery Bus Boycott is the following.

Georgia Gilmore (1920-1990) was an important figure during the Civil Rights movement in the South. Specifically, during the Montgomery Bus Boycott in Montgomery, Alabama, she was very connected with this movement in that she cooked and sold her food during the meetings and demonstrations in order to collect some money to donate to the movement. She was very committed to helping sustain the movement with her cooking, hoping the boycott could serve its original purpose.

In 150 words, describe what Arthur would say to the captain in response to his questions in Twelve Years a Slave.
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Sure.

The ship stops on the way to New Orleans, picking up four more slaves. Among them is a slave named Arthur. Like Solomon and Robert, Arthur is a free man with a family and was kidnapped and sold into slavery. When the ship departs again for New Orleans, the captain appoints Robert as his waiter and Solomon as the overseer of the cooking department. Solomon is also made to distribute food and water twice a day. At night, the slaves are “driven into the hold and securely fastened down.”

Arthur’s story of being kidnapped echoes that of Robert and Solomon, pushing the reader to recognize the widespread distortion of justice that permeates the nation. The slaves are once again compared to livestock, as they are “driven into the hold and securely fastened down” like horses or cattle being kept in the barn for the night.

A violent storm descends upon the ship, and many of the slaves wish that the “compassionate sea” would drown them, saving them from “the clutches of remorseless men.”  Solomon tells his reader not to judge him for any of his actions that follow in the narrative, writing: “Let not those who have never been placed in like circumstances, judge me harshly.”

reluctant compromise

<span>the treat that Mr.Jones will come back; Each time the animals dare to question an aspect of Napoleon’s regime, Squealer threatens them with Jones’s return. This is doubly threatening to the animals because it would mean another battle that, if lost, would result in a return to their former lifestyle of submission. Jones’s return is such a serious threat that it quashes the animals’ curiosity without fail.</span>
