Answer:

The main reason A-A were protesting in the 50's and 60's were for civil rights; aka equal rights. Segregation was a real problem in the US at this time, and since women were getting most of their rights via civil rights amendments, A-A's were also protesting.

Answer: The civil rights movement was a struggle for social justice that took place mainly during the 1950s and 1960s for blacks to gain equal rights under the law in the United States. -History

Explanation: The Civil War had officially abolished slavery, but it didn’t end discrimination against blacks—they continued to endure the devastating effects of racism, especially in the South. By the mid-20th century, African Americans had had more than enough of prejudice and violence against them. They, along with many whites, mobilized and began an unprecedented fight for equality that spanned two decades. -History

A scholar would most likely compare accounts of the same event written at different times in order to understand
mezya [45]
True.

Consider a court case. A jury hears the witnesses placed on the stand. Each witness would be individually interviewed, giving an account of the same event which would be written (most likely by an officer) apart from other witnesses, very likely at different times, so that there's no collusion between witnesses. The eyewitness accounts help the Jury understand an event and is a part of their decision making.

In what ways were Hitler and Mussolini similar in their philosophies and actions?
Anika [276]
Hitler and Mussolini were very different people. Hitler’s early life, wartime
experiences, aims, how he came to power and how he ruled Germany were all
different to Mussolini’s rule over Italy. Hitler’s dour and colourless view
of life contrasted greatly with Mussolini’s larger than life approach to his
leadership. Both leaders left their countries with a economic and social debt to
the Allies which is still strong in the minds of many older members of the
