The Freedom Riders were sentenced to 30 days in jail for breaking segregation laws The goal of this organization was to bring light to the unfair treatment of black citizens throughout the South, especially when it came to segregated facilities.

 In Mississippi, several of the black Freedom Riders attempted to use white only facilities. This resulted in their arrest and their eventual jail sentence.

The Doolittle Raid in the spring of 1942 proved that Japan’s homeland was powerful. defenseless. protected. conquerable.
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Conquerable.

Explanation:

The Doolittle Raid of 1942 was carried out by the U.S. Air Force in the spring of 1942. 16 aircraft were sent to drop bombs over the Japanese Capital: the city of Tokyo, and the attacks caused over 50 Japanese casualties, and some damage to the city.

The Doolittle Raid was an exploratory action, and it only had the goal to see if the Japanese Archipelago was vulnerable to an air attack. While the damage caused by the attack itself was negligible, it raised morale among the American soldiers, and proved that Japan was conquerable.
