Sphinxa [80]3 years ago

this is not worth five points but points are points right :T Elizabeth Ann Eckford is one of the Little Rock Nine, a group of African-American students who, in 1957, were the first black students ever to attend classes at the previously all-white Little Rock Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. The integration came as a result of Brown v. Board of Education. Eckford's public ordeal was captured by press photographers on the morning of September 4, 1957, after she was prevented from entering the school by the Arkansas National Guard. A dramatic snapshot by Johnny Jenkins of the United Press showed the young girl being followed and threatened by an angry white mob; this and other photos of the day's startling events were circulated around the US and the world by the press. Rosa Louise McCauley Parks (February 4, 1913 – October 24, 2005) was an American activist in the civil rights movement best known for her pivotal role in the Montgomery bus boycott. The United States Congress has called her "the first lady of civil rights" and "the mother of the freedom movement".  Thurgood Marshall (July 2, 1908 – January 24, 1993) was an American lawyer and civil rights activist who served as Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from October 1967 until October 1991. Marshall was the Court's first African-American justice.

The dividing of india into two nations was referred to as
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Partition of India/Indian Partition

Explanation:

After the World War II ended, the European imperial powers were in ruins, economically badly damaged, and with depleted and exhausted military forces. This meant that they are no longer able to hold onto their colonies, so they had to grant them independence. India was one of those countries that was granted independence. And while that came as a big positive, there was also a negative in it, the country was divided on religious basis into two countries, the Hindu dominated India, and the Muslim dominated Pakistan. That resulted in lot of anger, tensions, and conflicts between the two groups and countries, with millions of people being displaced, injured, or murdered. It didn't stopped there though, as after the initial partition where there was suppose to be two countries, later it turned to be three, as Bangladesh managed to become a separate country too.
