Answer 1

1. The Civil Rights Act of 1875 was passed to prohibit racial discrimination in public accommodations such as hotels, restaurants, and theaters.3. World War II helped set the stage for the modern civil rights movement in three ways:a. It exposed African American soldiers to the hypocrisy of fighting for democracy abroad while being denied basic rights at home.b. It created economic opportunities for African Americans in the defense industry, leading to the growth of the black middle class.c. It led to the migration of African Americans from the South to the North and West, where they faced less segregation and discrimination.4. Thurgood Marshall argued Brown's case.5. The Brown ruling declared that state laws establishing separate public schools for black and white students were unconstitutional.6. The Court ruled as it did in Brown because it found that segregated schools were inherently unequal and violated the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.7. The organization formed to support Rosa Parks was the Montgomery Improvement Association (MIA).8. The MIA organized the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which lasted for over a year and led to the desegregation of public transportation in Montgomery, Alabama.9. The federal government responded to the Little Rock crisis by sending federal troops to enforce the desegregation of Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas.10. The president of SCLC was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.11. SCLC's purpose was to coordinate and support nonviolent direct action campaigns against segregation and discrimination.12. SNCC accomplished the desegregation of public facilities and the registration of African American voters through sit-ins, freedom rides, and voter registration drives. They used nonviolent civil disobedience and grassroots organizing to challenge the status quo and bring about change.
