Answer:

  • Their wives simply did not like the tortillas the corn hybrid made
  • The farmers did not like the flavor

Explanation:

This is in relation to the <em>''The Introduction of Hybrid Corn to Spanish  American Farmers in New Mexico'' </em>by<em> Anacleto Apodaca. </em>

The United States Department of Agriculture had tried to introduce a new hybrid corn to the Rio Grande valley in the 1940s to increase the yield there. They succeeded in doing so and the harvest became bountiful.

A couple of years later however most of the farmers had stopped planting the new seed and the reason they gave was because their wives did not like the tortillas made from the new corn and they did not like the flavor as well.

It would be very difficult to argue that one person/event can accurately summarize the huge political, social, and economic changes that took place during this era. One must consider that this time period saw the anti-war movement, civil rights movement, environmental movement, and parts of the women's rights movement. No one person or event involved all of these different changes at once.

However, if you were to make this argument you could use the following:
a) Martin Luther King Jr.- His role in the Civil Rights movement and peace movement make him one of the biggest civil rights icons of the 21st century.
b) March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom- This 1963 march included hundreds of thousands of Americans and allowed MLK to give his "I have a dream speech."
