Answer:

The Chicago race riot of 1919 was a violent racial conflict started by white Americans against black Americans that began on the South Side of Chicago, Illinois on July 27, and ended on August 3, 1919.[1][2] During the riot, thirty-eight people died (23 black and 15 white).[3] Over the week, injuries attributed to the episodic confrontations stood at 537, with two-thirds of the injured being black and one-third white, while the approximately 1,000 to 2,000 who lost their homes were mostly black.[4] It is considered the worst of the nearly 25 riots and civil disturbances in the United States during the "Red Summer" of 1919, so named because of the racial and labor related violence and fatalities across the nation.[5] The prolonged conflict made it one of the worst riots in the history of Illinois.[6]

In early 1919, the sociopolitical atmosphere of Chicago around and near its rapidly growing black community was one of ethnic tension caused by racism and competition among new groups, an economic slump, and the social changes engendered by World War I. With the Great Migration, thousands of African Americans from the American South had settled next to neighborhoods of European immigrants on Chicago's South Side, near jobs in the stockyards, meatpacking plants, and industry. Meanwhile, the Irish had been established earlier, and fiercely defended their territory and political power against all newcomers.[7][8] Post-World War I racism and tensions caused inter-community frictions, especially in the competitive labor and housing markets.[9] Overcrowding and increased African American resistance against racism, especially by war veterans contributed to the visible racial frictions.[5] Also, a combination of ethnic gangs and police neglect strained the racial relationships

Use your judgment and your understanding of US history to select four events of greatest importance from the timeline. List the
Hunter-Best [27]

The correct answer to this open question es the following.

Although the question is incomplete and does not provide a list to elaborate on the timeline, we can say that the events that are important to understanding the Vietnam War are the following.

First, we have to understand what happened during the French colonization period in the region of Vietnam, which was known as French Indochina. The problems arose until the degree that the Soviet Union, China, and finally the United States had to intervene in the conflict between the two Vietnams.

During World War II, Vietnamese leader H* Chi Minh created the League for the Independence of Vietnam, and in 1945 he promulgates the independence of North Vietnam, establishing Communism.

That is when the US entered into the conflict because President Harry Truman was decided to stop the Soviet Union and its spread of Communism. The US supported South Vietnam. China and the USSR supported North Vietnam.

In 1954, the Geneva Accords established the border between North and South Vietnam. Ngo Dinh became the leader of South Vietnam. In 1961, President John F. Kennedy sent troops and helicopters to Vietnam.

In 1964, after the Gulf of Tonkin incident, the US Congress authorized more powers for the US President to use the force against North Vietnam.

In 1965, President Johnson send more troops to Vietnam, but in America, people started to question the US involvement in that war. By 1967, young people, students, and citizens if the US took the streets and protest against US participation in the Vietnam War.

In January 1968, the Tet Offensive represents a major set back for the US.  Richard Nixon became President of the US in November 1968. President Nixon started what was known as Vietnamization, and order some US troops stationed in Vietnam to return to the US.
