From 1955 until 1956, African American citizens in Montgomery, Alabama, refused to ride on city buses. African Americans chose n

ot to ride the buses as a way to protest segregation and the unequal treatment of minorities. They hoped that by boycotting the buses, politicians and government officials would change public policies concerning African Americans. Eventually, the Supreme Court decided that the laws in Alabama that forced African Americans to give up their seats to white passengers were unconstitutional.

Based to this excerpt from the text, what was one potential problem with the articles of confederation
Ludmilka [50]
<h3><em><u>Answer:</u></em></h3><h2>Smaller states had the same voting power in Congress as larger states.</h2><h3><em><u>Explanation:</u></em></h3>

One of the greatest difficulties was that the national administration had no authority to implement taxes. To withdraw any judgment of “taxation without description,” the Articles of Confederation provided only state bureaucracies to levy taxes. To compensate for its expenditures, the national administration had to demand funds from the states.
