John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963. While campaigning for reelection in Dallas, he was shot by Lee Harvey Oswald from the sixth story of a nearby building. A tremendous amount of controversy surrounds Kennedy's assassination. On April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King was assassinated while speaking on a balcony at a motel in Memphis. He was killed by James Earl Ray, a white racist. In more than one hundred cities, blacks took to the streets in anger. The riots led to 46 deaths and 27,000 arrests. The immediate and lasting effects of the death of Martin Luther King on America are impossible to quantify.

Malcolm X was shot and killed in the Audubon Ballroom in Harlem on February 21,1965. Unlike JFK and MLK, Malcolm was living in a state of panic. Two weeks earlier, his house had been firebombed. The men arrested for his death were three members of the Nation of Islam, though the truth behind the assassination remains mysterious.

Explanation:

By the fall of 1963, President John F. Kennedy and his political advisers were preparing for the next presidential campaign. Although he had not formally announced his candidacy, it was clear that President Kennedy was going to run and he seemed confident about his chances for re-election.

At the end of September, the president traveled west, speaking in nine different states in less than a week. The trip was meant to put a spotlight on natural resources and conservation efforts. But JFK also used it to sound out themes—such as education, national security, and world peace—for his run in 1964.

i just took the test and picked A and it was wrong and it said this was the answer

the topic i chose to write about was " why scuba diving is so popular". the topic is suitable for the audience because it is the easiest to develop and explain, it can be explained in a simpler more conversational manner, it does not require the use of too many technical words, and the final reason for selecting this topic is that it is the one most people can relate to, you might not know too much about scuba diving, but you could probably agree that it is very popular. the purpose of the writing about this topic is to convince more people about the benefits both for the body and the mind that   scuba diving can have on a person. it can you keep fit since it requires a lot of energy when swimming underwater; it also you relax because you forget about the world when you are underwater being mesmerized by the underwater world. i would write this paper in the summer, a perfect time to give scuba diving a try if a person has not done it yet.

the correct answer is a) he thought the government’s military action was a mistake.

the whiskey rebellion was a tax protest in the us that started in 1791 and ended in 1974. it has this name because the whiskey tax was the first tax that was imposed on a domestic product by the new federal government.

jefferson was against the government’s military action because he believed that the purpose of the government was to protect the unalienable rights of its citizens and that these rights include life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and he thought that people had the constitutional right to rebel. he has said: “the first error was to pass it (the whiskey tax); the second was to enforce it; and the third, to make it the means of splitting this union.”
