History

Andre45 [30]3 years ago
6 0
The poor citizens of New York City responded to the draft laws by instigating riots that lasted for four days.

They were in vehement opposition to the military draft acts that allow men from wealthy families to pay a certain amount so avoid being called into service. Also, African-Americans are not considered to be American citizens; thus, they are exempted from being called into military service. Because of this, those who can't afford to pay are called to military service leaving their families to fend for themselves during a time of uncertainty and hardship.

The correct answer is B. President Kennedy's ambitious plan was called "The New Frontier"

New Frontier refers to the term used by the candidate of modern liberalism of the Democratic Party to the presidency John F. Kennedy in his acceptance speech in the United States presidential election in 1960 at the Democratic National Convention held in Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum as the Democratic slogan.The phrase became a hallmark of national and foreign programs during his administration.

As he said, "We stand today on the edge of a New Frontier, the frontier of the 1960s, the frontier of unknown opportunities and perils, the frontier of unfilled hopes and unfilled threats. ... Beyond that frontier are uncharted areas of science and space, unsolved problems of peace and war, unconquered problems of ignorance and prejudice, unanswered questions of poverty and surplus".
