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.

Which statements describe Classical Greek architecture
MrRissso [65]

The correct answer is columns that swell in the middle and taper at the top ; symmetry and balance

Greek architecture developed from the 8th century BC, being inspired by Ionian, Doric and Corinthian styles. In large Greek buildings, the most used materials were stones, marble, wood and limestone. At that time, the structures already had great engineering, symmetry and the use of calculations and mathematical proportions.

In Greek architecture, temples stand out, usually places where diverse celebrations (civil events, sporting events, etc.) and worship of the gods took place, of which the Acropolis and the Parthenon of Athens, in the Greek capital, stand out. For the Greeks, the gods inhabited the temples. In addition to Greek temples, squares and theaters were erected.

It is important to note that Greek architecture was mainly of a public character, that is, public buildings and / or buildings were made to contemplate various events (political, social, economic, religious). In turn, the rooms were simple and lacking in refinement.
