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

What would Texas be like today if the French colony, Fort St. Louis, had not failed
Brut [27]

Answer:

"If the French colony, Fort St. Louis, had not failed," Texas would have been a French-speaking state or country.  With some neighboring states, Texas would not have been a part of the United States of America, unless what happened in Quebec also happened there.  Most likely, Texas would have become the capital of a United States of France.  This last is just my guess.

Above all, Texas is what it is today because it is a big part of the United States, just like Alaska and California.

Explanation:

Texas as a big state in the United States has "the second largest land area after Alaska and the second highest population after California."  It enjoys different landscapes, divided into the four plains.  According to records, Texas is "the most self-sufficient state in the United States," boosting of both industry, agriculture, tourism, and other natural resources and backbone.  Texas also enjoys a "business-friendly environment with no state income tax."  It has an abundance of jobs, land, and opportunity.  Texas, the Lone Star State, is known for its diversity, affluence, and friendly spirit and culture.
