How was septima clark involved in the civil rights movement?
irina [24]

Answer:

Septima Poinsette (she acquired the Clark surname when she married and kept it after becoming a widow), was an African-American educator and civil rights activist born in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1898. Her parents were slaves and they worked hard to get her to receive education in a school where African Americans were accepted.

However, at the time Septima lived, racial segregation was on the rise despite the fact that slavery had already been abolished. In addition, she experienced discrimination when, after studying to become a teacher, she was denied to work in her hometown because it was prohibited for people of African descent.

It was there where she began her struggle for civil rights and the elimination of racial discrimination. She started by collecting signatures to repeal the prohibition that had against people of color to teach in schools, she achieved Charleston black teachers received equal pay as other teachers of the same category, taught courses of literacy and citizenship, as well as workshops to learn about civil rights, duties and other fundamental laws.

So, she fought hard during her life for equality and for teaching black people to defend themselves civically against the laws that prevented them from voting and doing other activities.

eduard

<em>B. 7.</em>

Explanation:

The Seventh Amendment was added in 1791 and is part of the Bill of Rights. This amendment is known for protecting the right to having a trial by jury.

This also makes it illegal to discriminate in the workplace. You can not turn down somebody because of their religious beliefs, or give raises based on that kind of criteria. Employers have to accept their employee's religious beliefs without discrimination or putting other religious beliefs onto them.
