Answer:

Freedom Summer, or the Mississippi Summer Project, was a 1964 voter registration drive aimed at increasing the number of registered Black voters in Mississippi. Over 700 mostly white volunteers joined African Americans in Mississippi to fight against voter intimidation and discrimination at the polls. The movement was organized by civil rights organizations like the Congress on Racial Equality (CORE) and the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and run by the local Council of Federated Organizations (COFO). Freedom Summer volunteers were met with violent resistance from the Ku Klux Klan and members of state and local law enforcement. News coverage of beatings, false arrests and even murder drew international attention to the civil rights movement. The increased awareness it brought to voter discrimination helped lead to the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

What is the author's main objection to what Kipling advocates in "The Whites Man's Burden"?
Alenkasestr [34]
<span>The name of the poem became a nominal designation of the mission of the imperialists in the colonial possessions. Kipling depicts the non-European peoples of them as underdeveloped, dangerous and demanding constant control and assistance from the "white nations". In this regard, the text was often viewed as racist and pro-European-chauvinistic, as a cover for colonial policy, primarily by Britain, justifying its capture in Asia and Africa by humanistic considerations.</span>
