Thirty-five years later, while I was lying awake nights, frustrated, unable to see a future, Mr. Rickey, by now the president of

the Dodgers, was also lying awake at night, trying to make up his mind about a new experiment.
He had never forgotten the agony of that black athlete. When he became a front-office executive in St. Louis, he had fought, behind the scenes, against the custom that consigned black spectators to the Jim Crow section of the Sportsman's Park, later to become Busch Memorial Stadium. His pleas to change the rules were in vain. Those in power argued that if blacks were allowed a free choice of seating, white business would suffer.

Which detail best supports the central idea that many people oppose Branch Rickey’s ideas?

Answer:

1775–1830

U.S. Indian policy during the American Revolution was disorganized and largely unsuccessful. At the outbreak of the war, the Continental Congress hastily recruited Indian agents. Charged with securing alliances with Native peoples, these agents failed more often than they succeeded. They faced at least three difficulties. First, they had less experience with Native Americans than did the long-standing Indian agents of the British Empire. Second, although U.S. agents assured Indians that the rebellious colonies would continue to carry on the trade in deerskins and beaver pelts, the disruptions of the war made regular commerce almost impossible. Britain, by contrast, had the commercial power to deliver trade goods on a more regular basis. And third, many Indians associated the rebellious colonies with aggressive white colonists who lived along the frontier. Britain was willing to sacrifice these colonists in the interests of the broader empire (as it had done in the Proclamation of 1763), but for the colonies, visions of empire rested solely on neighboring Indian lands. Unable to secure broad alliances with Indian peoples, U.S. Indian policy during the Revolution remained haphazard, formed by local officials in response to local affairs.

How did nationalist leaders use different methods to pursue independence from colonial rule after 1900?

How did nationalist leaders use different methods to pursue independence from colonial rule after 1900?

While countries throughout history have fought for their independence from their colonizing countries, not all of them fought for independence in the same way. Some examples of how many nationalist leaders used different methods to pursue independence from colonial rule after 1900 are:

-Mahatma Gandhi (Indian independence movement), who pursued independence for his country through noncooperation in 1919-1922, a civil disobedience movement of 1930-1931, and finally the Quit India movement in 1940-1942, which led to India and Pakistan gaining independence from the British Empire.

-Hồ Chí Minh (Vietnam War), who pursued independence for his country by beating the French with military strategies and battles, which led to the Vietnam War and finally the independence of Vietnam.  

-Paul Kruger (South African independence movement), who pursued independence for his country by fighting the British Empire with military strategies and battles, which led to the Anglo-Boer wars and finally the British Empire troops retreating.

-Kwame Nkrumah (Ghana independence movement), who pursued independence for his country by launching a Positive Action campaign of strikes, boycotts, and disobedience. This led to Ghana gaining independence from the British Empire
