History

sdas [7]3 years ago

Eugene McCarthy was a United States senator in the 1950s and 1960s. He ran for president in the American presidential election of 1968. McCarthy strongly opposed the Vietnam War and America's involvement in it. McCarthy challenged President Johnson for the Democratic nomination, gaining the support of many Democratic Americans. McCarthy also encouraged Robert Kennedy to enter the presidential race.

McCarthy was very popular due to his opinions and the policies he wanted to spread, and he gained popularity with prominent figures such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This surge in popularity led to a split in the Democratic party with only half of the party supporting McCarthy and the other half supporting Johnson. McCarthy was committed to the young people.

Many of Johnson's values lay on the fact that American moral values were deteriorating, which was a sentiment that many Democratic Americans could agree with. McCarthy accused the Johnson administration of being unwilling to negotiate with the North Vietnamese and criticized their efforts, gaining major support from Americans who believed that America shouldn't be involved in the war at all.

5. What was Nelson Mandela's childhood like.
Gelneren [198K]
Nelson Mandela was born on July 18, 1918, into a royal family of the Xhosa-speaking Thembu tribe in the South African village of Mvezo, where his father, Gadla Henry Mphakanyiswa (c. 1880-1928), served as chief. His mother, Nosekeni Fanny, was the third of Mphakanyiswa’s four wives, who together bore him nine daughters and four sons. After the death of his father in 1927, 9-year-old Mandela—then known by his birth name, Rolihlahla—was adopted by Jongintaba Dalindyebo, a high-ranking Thembu regent who began grooming his young ward for a role within the tribal leadership.

Name two African American athletes who
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Joe Louis: Joe Louis held the heavyweight title for 140 consecutive months, the longest such streak in boxing history. Many people regarded him as the first black national hero. He also fought two internationally publicized bouts.

Jesse Owens: During the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Adolf Hitler attempted to use the Games as a showcase for his Third Reich and the supposed superiority of the Aryan race.

After winning the Olympics, some of the personal aspects of his discrimination were slowly released. Owens could then eat the all-white restaurants, and travel with the whites as well. But this didn’t happen all at once. In fact, his National achievements were still looked down upon. Whether being the most successful man in the world, Owens was still a black man, and black men were only seen through the eyes of the white as slaves. However, keep in mind, that it was quite rare for black people to be granted this right.

Happy learning!
