Answer:

Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, Mr. President, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen:

I accept the Nobel Prize for Peace at a moment when 22 million Negroes of the United States of America are engaged in a creative battle to end the long night of racial injustice. I accept this award on behalf of a civil rights movement which is moving with determination and a majestic scorn for risk and danger to establish a reign of freedom and a rule of justice. I am mindful that only yesterday in Birmingham, Alabama, our children, crying out for brotherhood, were answered with fire hoses, snarling dogs and even death. I am mindful that only yesterday in Philadelphia, Mississippi, young people seeking to secure the right to vote were brutalized and murdered. And only yesterday more than 40 houses of worship in the State of Mississippi alone were bombed or burned because they offered a sanctuary to those who would not accept segregation. I am mindful that debilitating and grinding poverty afflicts my people and chains them to the lowest rung of the economic ladder.

Therefore, I must ask why this prize is awarded to a movement which is beleaguered and committed to unrelenting struggle; to a movement which has not won the very peace and brotherhood which is the essence of the Nobel Prize.

Why did people in the western and southern parts of the United States object to Clay's American System?​
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Southerners opposed Clay's American Systems because the south already had rivers to transport goods and they did not want to pay for roads and canals that brought them no benefit. Since Southerners had to pay tariff, they wanted to make sure that when the tariff was used, they profit from it as well.

Vaselesa [24]

C. Many women replaced men in jobs on farms and in factories.

They were needed badly due to shortage of men. World War 2 saw epic destruction level and the mobilization of more than 100 million soldiers which resulted in the shortage of workers at factories and farms back home. So women were offered the domestic duties.
