What viewpoints emerged during the early civil rights movement ?
Basile [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

When most Americans think of the Civil Rights Movement, they have in mind a span of time beginning with the 1954 Supreme Court’s decision in Brown v. Board of Education, which outlawed segregated education, or the Montgomery Bus Boycott and culminated in the late 1960s or early 1970s. The movement encompassed both ad hoc local groups and established organizations like the  

 

National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). Despite the fact that they were not always united around strategy and tactics and drew members from different classes and backgrounds, the movement nevertheless cohered around the aim of eliminating the system of Jim Crow segregation and the reform of some of the worst aspects of racism in American institutions and life.

Much of our memory of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s is embodied in dramatic photographs, newsreels, and recorded speeches, which America encountered in daily papers and the nightly news. As the movement rolled across the nation, Americans absorbed images of hopeful, disciplined, and dedicated young people shaping their destinies. They were met with hostility,  

S

federal ambivalence and indifference, as well as mob and police violence. African Americans fought back with direct action protests and keen political organizing, such as voter registration drives and the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party. The crowning achievements were the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The images are alternately angering and inspiring, powerful, iconic even. However, by themselves they cannot tell the history of the Civil Rights Movement. They need to be contextualized.

The NAACP’s anti-lynching campaign of the 1930s combined widespread publicity about the causes and costs of lynching, a successful drive to defeat Supreme Court nominee John J. Parker for his white supremacist and anti-union views and then defeat senators who voted for confirmation, and a skillful effort to lobby Congress and the Roosevelt administration to pass a federal anti-lynching law. Southern senators filibustered, but they could not prevent the formation of a national consensus against lynching; by 1938 the number of lynchings declined steeply. Other organizations, such as the left-wing National Negro Congress, fought lynching, too, but the NAACP emerged from the campaign as the most influential civil rights organization in national politics and maintained that position through the mid-1950s.

 

The campaign for desegregated education was part of a larger struggle to reshape the contours of America—in terms of race, but also in the ways political and economic power is exercised in this country. Plans for the legal campaign that culminated with Brown were sketched in 1929 by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Charles Hamilton Houston, the black attorney most responsible for developing the legal theory underpinning Brown, focused on segregated education because he believed that it was the concentrated expression of all the inequalities blacks endured.

Houston was unabashed: lawyers were either social engineers or they were parasites. He desired equal access to education, but he also was concerned with the type of society blacks were trying to integrate. He was among those who surveyed American society and saw racial inequality and the ruling powers that promoted racism to divide black workers from white workers. Because he believed that racial violence in Depression-era America was so pervasive as to make mass direct action untenable, he emphasized the redress of grievances through the courts.

The designers of the Brown strategy developed a potent combination of gradualism in legal matters and advocacy of far-reaching change in other political arenas. Through the 1930s and much of the 1940s, the NAACP initiated suits that dismantled aspects of the edifice of segregated education, each building on the precedent of the previous one. Not until the late 1940s did the NAACP believe it politically feasible to challenge directly the constitutionality of “separate but equal” education itself. Concurrently, civil rights organizations backed efforts to radically alter the balance of power between employers and workers in the United States. They paid special attention to forming an alliance with organized labor, whose history of racial exclusion angered blacks. In the 1930s, the National Negro Congress brought blacks into the newly formed United Steel Workers, and the union paid attention to the particular demands of African Americans. The NAACP assisted the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, the largest black labor organization of its day.

What role did helicopters, hospitals, doctors, and nurses play, according to the letters and the video clip?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: Brainlist please

Explanation:The helicopters, hospitals, doctors and nurses were usually on the sidelines of the war, waiting for someone to need them. Helicopters would drop supplies and pick up wounded or dead soldiers when needed. Hospitals took in wounded soldiers where doctors and nurses looked after them.4.In the letter that had the greatest emotional impact on me, the writer was describing how his comrade died, and the description revealed the soldiers fear of his own death without saying it outright. This letter made the greatest impact on me because it showed me that even without trying to, soldiers could not help but to express their fear of what is to come with the war.5.The war had a great impact on the common soldier and his family. The soldiers are torn from their homes and forced into battle, which they may or may not want. The soldier may have wanted to go to college or do other things but the war changed all of that. Their families are most often constantly worried about the soldier and his well-being. If the soldier comes home, he then has to readjust to society, and not all soldiers successfully do that.

Mila [183]

Answer:

It encouraged its followers to adopt sober and moral ways

Explanation:

Unhappy with the situation of socio-economic exclusion in their country and the direction of the spirituality of the official Church (Anglican Episcopal) - ostentation and spiritual neglect - the group of friends, religious and well-educated students of Oxford University began to question the ecclesiastical hierarchy in its attitude of living towards itself, without the capacity to observe the needs of human beings. The movement aimed to encourage the followers to care about their mates, but above all, they should avoid worldy acts, and adopt sober ways.
