History

m_a_m_a [10]2 years ago
7 0

Because the large federal government of England had been oppressing them for years. They rebelled against the tyranny showed to them by the British government, so after years of mistreatment at the hands of big governments, they wanted to structure their own government so that it could not oppress them. Hence, they wanted a small government that gave the people more individual power.

What was one important factor that helped pass the 26th amendment in 1971?
SVEN [57.7K]
The Vietnam War. It was a long debate over lowering the voting age from 21 to 18, which began during World War II and only intensified during the Vietnam War when young men who were practically being heavily obligated and sometimes forced/drafted to fight for their country were being denied the right to vote. 
“Old enough to fight, old enough to vote” became a common slogan for a youth voting rights movement, and in 1943 Georgia<span> became the first state to lower its voting age in state and local elections from 21 to 18.</span>

tamaranim1 [39]

Critical analysis of the article by Carson, Clayborne. 2005.“To Walk in Dignity: The Montgomery Bus Boycott.” with the method of REEC is described below.

Explanation:

King reads a prepared statement to about 2,500 persons attending mass meetings at Holt Street and First Baptist Churches.

1 He urges “the Negro citizens of Montgomery to return to the busses tomorrow morning on a non-segregated basis.”

2 A Birmingham News account of the meetings reported that he admitted “it is true we got more out of this (boycott) than we went in for. We started out to get modified segregation (on buses) but we got total integration.

3 At six A.M. the following morning King joined E. D. Nixon, Ralph Abernathy, and Glenn Smiley on one of the first integrated buses. During the initial day of desegregated bus seating there were only a few instances of verbal abuse and occasional violence.

4 For more than twelve months now, we, the Negro citizens of Montgomery have been engaged in a non-violent protest against injustices and indignities experienced on city buses Often our movement has been referred to as a boycott movement. The word boycott, however, does not adequately describe the true spirit of our movement. The word boycott is suggestive of merely an economic squeeze devoid of any positive value.

5. We have struggle against tremendous odds to maintain alternative transportation. We have lived under the agony and darkness of Good Friday with the conviction that one day the heightening glow of Easter would emerge on the horizon.
