The correct answer is B, as the civil rights leader and great-grandson of a slave who was one of the best lawyers of his day, winning 13 of the 15 cases he argued before the Supreme Court was Thurgood Marshall.

Thurgood Marshall was an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, serving from October 2, 1967 until October 1, 1991, the first African-American Associate Justice of the country.

Before becoming a judge, Marshall was a lawyer who was best known for his high success in arguing before the Supreme Court, and for winning the Brown v. Board of Education case, a decision that prevented racial segregation in public schools.

rewona [7]

Answer:

The loss we carry,

A sea we must wade.

We braved the belly of the beast;

We’ve learned that quiet isn’t always peace.

Notice: All interesting

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To compose a country committed to all cultures, colors, characters and conditions of man.

And so we lift our gaze not to what stands between us,

But what stands before us.

We close the divide, because we know to put our future first,

We must first put our differences aside.

We lay down our arms

So we can reach out our arms to one another.

We seek harm to none and harmony for all.

All confuzzling

Your view on the british after you witnessed the amristar massacre?
astraxan [27]

Amritsar is also called the JallianWala Bagh massacre. it is one of the most gruesome killing if the common civilians who assembled and were on peaceful strike in Amritsar.

Explanation:

Though Indians supported the British in their wars against Germany and Ottoman empire, The British Raj lacked trust on some of the radical Indians who understood the real purpose of the Britishers to occupy India. Gradually British decided to repress Indians by passing Rowlatt act which authorized the Britishers to imprison the revolutionaries just based on suspicion and the press were also not given the rights and freedom of speech and expression. General Dyer also restricted any association of more than four members in the public places in Amritsar.

But more than twenty thousand civilians assembled in the public park called JallianWala Bagh. General dyer ordered the cease fire and more than four hundred people were killed. This made the Indians to lose hope on the British Government and from thereon the nationalism spirit of Indians rose to such an extent that Independence was indispensable for Indians.

Why was thomas hutchinson a loyalist
Art [367]

Answer:

Hope I could help xxxxx ;P

Explanation:

Thomas Hutchinson was the last royal governor of Massachusetts Bay, a prominent loyalist, and a noted historian, both of his colony and his times. A native Bostonian, born September 9, 1711 to a wealthy merchant family, Hutchinson was, like many of his future political opponents, educated at Harvard University. In 1737 he was elected to the Massachusetts assembly, of which he was Speaker from 1746 to 1748. His support for an unpopular measure to redeem the colony's depreciated paper currency led to his defeat for re-election in 1749. He was then appointed to the Governor's Council and served as a delegate to the Albany Congress of 1754, where he joined Benjamin Franklin in drawing up a plan of American union. Hutchinson was made lieutenant governor of the province in 1758 and chief justice in 1760, offices he held simultaneously, much to the chagrin of Boston radicals such as James Otis (who believed he had been promised the latter post).
