The difference between gentleman’s warfare and militia warfare in the revolutionary war
jekas [21]

Answer:

There's a popular belief that Americans fought and won the entire revolution with nothing but guerrilla warfare. That's not true, and the myth largely stems from how the war began. The very first military engagement between British and American forces occurred on April 19 of 1775. American militia men had been covertly transporting weapons and colonial government leaders from town to town, hiding them from the British army. The British heard about these stockpiles in the Massachusetts towns of Lexington and Concord and went to seize them. The American volunteers of these town gathered together to oppose the British, resulting in a brief skirmish. As the British beat a hasty retreat back towards Boston, American militia units basically popped out of the bushes along the entire road, shot a few volleys, and disappeared. It wasn't enough to decimate the British, but the British weren't prepared for it, and it drove them back.

Explanation:

Imagine that you are in charge of leading a small army of volunteer soldiers against the largest and most powerful professional army in the world. Are you going to march straight into battle? Not if you expect it to be a very long one!

For centuries, small armies have relied on guerrilla warfare to help even the odds. This includes non-traditional wartime tactics like ambushing, sabotage, and raids rather than direct engagements. Guerrilla warfare is not meant to really defeat an opponent; instead, the idea is to make the war drag on and become so expensive that your adversary gives up. It's the different between fighting a professional boxer versus a swarm of mosquitoes - the mosquitoes won't kill you, but they just may drive you away.

Amongst the many armies to try out these tactics were the American colonists fighting for their independence. The American Revolution was a conflict between a group of volunteers and a massive professional army. Did they think they could defeat Britain, the heavyweight champion of European colonialism? Maybe not, but while Britain prepared to defend its title, it was the colonists who learned how to 'float like a butterfly and sting like a bee.'

examine the Supreme Court's ruling in Brown v. Board of Education. How important was the Court's ruling in advancing civil right
Dafna11 [192]

The case of <em>Brown vs Board of Education of Topeka</em>, which took place in 1954, was a major breakthrough for the Civil Rights Movement, as it paved the way for an ending to inequality and segragation, especially in public schools and it influenced many legal cases thereafter. Among the many important things achieved through this ruling was the overturn of several other court rulings, especially those made in <em>Plessy vs Ferguson</em> (1986), which allowed states to establish separate schools for black and white children and <em>Mendez vs Westminster</em>, which allowed for the setting of separate facilities. The case was decided finally by the Supreme Court in a unanimous vote and after it it was settled that the installation of separate public schools, and segregation of children regarding their race in school, was a direct violation of the terms set by the Equal Protection Clause in the Fourtheenth Amendment.
