Answer:

A.) Carpetbagger

Explanation:

"Carpetbagger" was the term used to refer to natural citizens of northern states who moved to some southern state, after the secession war, during the southern construction. The aim of the Carpetbaggers was to use reconstruction and the disadvantaged people of the south to make money, or to gain political influence through several different activities. As you may already know, the southerners were very resentful to the northerners after the war, which made it difficult for the Carpetbaggers to achieve their goals, but they had help from the "Scalawags" or are white southerners who cooperated with the northerners throughout reconstruction.

Discuss the challenges and difficulties of Dr. King's non-violent approach to protest. Do you feel these strategies were effecti
zysi [14]

Answer: Three challenges Martin Luther King Jr. faced in the battle for equal rights included the opposition of "good" white people to his tactics, his realization that the only way to win civil rights was to proceed nonviolently, and pushback against his plan in the late 1960s to unite Black people and white people in a war on poverty.

King pushed back against critics of his methods. In Birmingham, he led Black people in protest marches and boycotts against racial segregation in that city. After he was jailed for his activities, he learned that a group of eight white clergymen had sent a letter to the newspapers saying he had gone too far. King knew he had to stop this dissent from people who were supposed to be on his side, so he sent his "Letter from Birmingham City Jail" explaining that nothing would be accomplished without disruptive, but nonviolent, action.

King also had the problem of needing white support to get civil rights legislation passed in the United States, because the country was predominantly white and white people held most of the power. He realized that any whiff of Black violence would provide the pretext for white people to crush his movement. Therefore, he trained his followers in Gandhi's techniques of nonviolence and was continually challenged to find ways to protest that were disruptive without spilling over into violence. His nonviolent approach was controversial but ultimately effective.

Finally, King faced opposition when, in the late 1960s, he tried to unify poor Black people and poor white people together in solidarity and spoke out to oppose the Vietnam War. In the end, his message was more than some could take, and he was assassinated in 1968.

I feel Dr. King's strategies were somewhat effective.

AP US History question:
liq [111]
<span>The role of women (specifically white women) changed dramatically during this time in the United States because production moved largely out of the house and into factories, meaning women stopped being producers and became consumers. Socially, this meant that women gained slightly more independence. </span>
