History
1 answer:
k0ka [10]3 years ago

Answer:

She was expelled from school for pouring a bowl of chili on a racist boy's head.

Explanation:

Minnijean Brown is an African American activist. She was one of Little Rock Nine, a group of nine African American teenager students who in 1957 were admitted extraordinarily to a white-only school, the Little Rock Central High School.

Minnijean, still an activist, was suspended from school after only three months, in December 1957, for pouring a bowl full of chili on white students, after many of them discriminated her.

As an adult and after getting married, Minnijean continued to be an activist for the protection of minority rights. She lived in Canada between 1980 and 1990, involved in the activism of some students at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario, after graduating from Carleton University in Ottawa. Recently, Minnijean moved to Little Rock again, where she lives with her mother and sister.

Causes of the Revolutionary War

The American people were strongly independent. They wanted to do things for themselves. Great Britain was a long way away. The American people didn't want people an ocean away telling them how to live their lives.
The British government decided to make the American colonies pay a large share of the war debt from the French and Indian War.
Through the Sugar Act, Stamp Act, and other taxes, the British tried to collect taxes that the American people considered harsh.
The American people also thought that they should be able to send their own people to Britain's Parliament or at least vote for Britain's lawmakers.
The combination of the harsh taxes and the lack of an American voice in Parliament gave rise to the famous phrase "taxation without representation."
Patrick Henry, Thomas Paine, and others called for an independent America, colonies free from British rule and interference.
Americans started stockpiling guns and ammunition in violation of British laws. Their defense of such a stockpile led to the shots fired at Lexington and Concord and the beginning of the Revolutionary War.
