The Civil Rights Movement brought changes to

History

Softa [21]3 years ago

Answer:

- Poll taxes in elections

- Voting Rights Act of 1965

Explanation:

  Not long ago, citizens in some states had to pay a fee to vote in a national election. This fee was called a poll tax. On January 23, 1964, the United States ratified the 24th Amendment to the Constitution, prohibiting any poll tax in elections for federal officials.

  On August 4, 1965, the United States Senate passed the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The long-delayed issue of voting rights had come to the forefront because of a voter registration drive launched by civil rights activists in Selma, Alabama.

What did the Voting Rights Act of 1965 accomplish?

This act was signed into law on August 6, 1965, by President Lyndon Johnson. It outlawed the discriminatory voting practices adopted in many southern states after the Civil War, including literacy tests as a prerequisite to voting.

stepan [7]
The correct answer is D. unfamiliar with the geography and terrain.

The Continental Army, lead by George Washington, squared off with the British army during the American Revolution. During this time, the colonists were extremely unorganized, had little supplies, and was staffed by thousands of volunteers.

However the Continental Army did have an advantage in knowing the geography/climate. Considering the volunteer soldiers for the Continental Army lived in the 13 colonies (where the fighting took place) the geography and terrain was very familiar to them.

1. Predict what would've happened differently if it were Black Lives Matter protesters involved in the event on Capitol Hill, ra
melomori [17]

Answer:

1. If it were blm protesters, there would've been shoootings, deaths, tear gas, police officers punching and kicking protesters because the way America views and treats black people, minorities, and poc. They are treated as such that their life doesn't matter and white people are superior and more important.

2. The impact of yesterday's event at the capital proves that white privilge is real. They practically walked into the capital. The difference between that and blm protests is blm supporters are fighting for racial injustice and the trump supporters who raided and destroyed the capital are throwing tantrums cause trump lost. Especially the fact that the president of the US ENCOURAGED them to destroy and raid the capital. And many important people were inside and could've been killed like Mike Pence for instance. He put his on VP in danger. And the trump supporters at the capital were breaking the law by breaking in, smashing desks, stealing mail (which is fraud btw), and be all kinds of violent for what? because trump lost. And they only got treated a fraction of what blm supporters  would've been treated

3. No i completely disagree with the methods of the "protesters" at the capital. They werent even protesters. They were criminals and rioters. Breaking the law. There are many other ways they could've done it. They could've simply had a peaceful protest like many BLM supporters did.
