History

Answer:

Because buses were an explicit scenario of racial prejudice.

Explanation:

Blacks used buses with the same frequency as whites, in addition to paying the same fare. This should allow them to have the same right of use, since the requirements for using the buses were the same as the requirements for whites. However, blacks did not have the same rights of use, since they were forced to sit in the back and give up the place if there were not enough chairs empty for whites. This made the bus an explicit place of discrimination and that is why it is so important for protests in favor of civil rights.

Imagine Catherine the Great chose YOU to be her successor to the Russian Throne. Write what advice would you ask her and why? Wr
otez555 [7]
Hi again ;)

I would probably ask about how to lead, and what it entails, but also, what benefits there are, and if there is any advice at all she could give. If there have to be three, then here are some examples:

1. What mistakes that you've made in your reign, would you advise me not to do, or change?
2. How long has it taken you to get the hang of the etiquette required to be one of the elite in royalty?
3. What countries would you want to make allies with for Russia, and how would you go about it?

That's it really, and they are just to give you an idea, but feel free to use them if you'd like. I just hope this helps! :)

Martin Luther King, Jr.

<span>Martin Luther King, Jr. was the instrumental leader of the civil rights movement; he believed in non-violence and civil disobedience; he was head of the Montgomery Improvement Association (MIA) and then the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC); was born in Atlanta, Georgia to the Rev. Martin Luther King, Sr. and Alberta Williams King. (King was born Michael but in 1934 his father—Rev. Michael King, Sr.—returned home from Europe where he had toured the site where Martin Luther had begun the Protestant Reformation and upon returning home he changed his name as well as his sons.)  He graduated from Morehouse College in 1948 at age nineteen and earned his Ph.D. in Theology from Boston University in 1955.  King married Coretta Scott on June 18, 1953 and they had four children.  While at Crozer Theological Seminary, King first became acquainted with the ideas of Mohandas Gandhi, which influenced him greatly in his future years.  In 1953, King became the pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama.  He was selected to lead the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott.  He was then instrumental in the founding of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC). King led the SCLC in several triumphs over racial injustices and became a symbol of the Civil Rights Movement.  His is probably most remembered for his famous “I have a Dream” speech which came at the conclusion the Civil Rights March on Washington which he had spearheaded.  King was assassinated on April 4, 1968 in Memphis, Tennessee while he stood on his hotel balcony.  James Earl Ray was arrested and convicted of the crime.  In 1986. </span>
