Answer:

The California Gold Rush began in 1848, when a large gold mine was discovered in the vicinity of what is now San Francisco. From that moment on, huge numbers of people from all over the world began to travel to California, with the aim of exploiting the gold mines and becoming rich. These people, the 49ers, were the pioneers in the exploitation of gold and the urbanization of the territory.

Once these people arrived in California, they began to create cities and settle in them. This caused that, due to the magnitude of its wealth and its population size, California was admitted as a state in 1850. Then, the problem arose because the majority of the Californian population was against slavery, but its entry to Congress would unbalance the balance between the slave and non-slave states. Therefore, the Compromise of 1850 was reached, by which the entry of California was admitted and Utah and New Mexico were allowed to adopt slavery, by the principle of popular sovereignty.

tatuchka [14]

<u>Each of the civil rights events listed took place in the following locations:</u>

  • Birmingham: demonstrations, boycotts, and sit-ins. All these activities integrated the so-called Birmingham Campaign, as it was one of the most segregated cities in the US.
  • Washington D.C. : Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech  delivered during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963 in front of 250,000 supporters of the Civil Rights Movement. It constituted a direct claim for the end of racism
  • Selma: police attacked peaceful marchers outside this city. The march which was peaceful in the beginning is nowadays known as the Bloody Sunday.
  • Watts: terrible riots took place here in 1965. A roadside incident escalated to a conflict with police and ended up causing six days of unrest.
  • Little Rock: students tried to integrate a school. This conflict required the involvement of the Supreme Court that issued the historic Brown v. Board of Education decision that declared segregated schools to be unconstitutional.
  • Montgomery: Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat in the bus in 1956 and it gave rise to the Montgomery bus boycott.

AlexFokin [52]
<span>This was a ruling on the fourteenth amendment in relation to Chinese-Americans. The basics are San Francisco put in legislation to ban laundry facilities that were in wooden house. Currently 95% were in wooden houses and were overwhelmingly Chinese. When these people came to apply for permits, the Chinese were denied except for one of them, while 200 non-Chinese were approved. The law was overturned by the Supreme Court because of its overreach and clear abuse of authority, especially to exclude Chinese workers from this trade for no reason other than them being Chinese.</span>
