The U.S was never prepared for the Pearl Harbor attack, the Japanese has everything planned out.
The battle you are referring to is actually called the Battle of the Ironclads. In this battle, it was the Merrimac (from the Confederacy) versus the USS Monitor (from the Union). This was the first battle between iron-fortified vessels in the Civil War. This battle ended up in a draw but represented a new form of fighting that both the Union and Confederacy had to be ready for.
The purpose of the act was to consolidate Bantu education, i.e. education of black people, so that discriminatory educational practices could be uniformly implemented across South Africa.
Many black and non-white children who lost a quality education due to the Bantu Act grew to experience economic strife. The Bantu Education Act resulted in increased racial tensions, a drop in national educational standards, and the denial of a quality education to thousands of South African children.
The education was aimed at training the children for the manual labour and menial jobs that the government deemed suitable for those of their race, and it was explicitly intended to inculcate the idea that Black people were to accept being subservient to white South Africans.
