In April 1963 King and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) joined with Birmingham, Alabama’s existing local movement, the Alabama Christian Movement for Human Rights (ACMHR), in a massive direct action campaign to attack the city’s segregation system by putting pressure on Birmingham’s merchants during the Easter season, the second biggest shopping season of the year. As ACMHR founder Fred Shuttlesworth stated in the group’s “Birmingham Manifesto,” the campaign was “a moral witness to give our community a chance to survive” (ACMHR, 3 April 1963).
The campaign was originally scheduled to begin in early March 1963, but was postponed until 2 April when the relatively moderate Albert Boutwell defeated Birmingham’s segregationist commissioner of public safety, Eugene “Bull” Connor, in a run-off mayoral election. On 3 April the desegregation campaign was launched with a series of mass meetings, direct actions, lunch counter sit-ins, marches on City Hall, and a boycott of downtown merchants. King spoke to black citizens about the philosophy of nonviolence and its methods, and extended appeals for volunteers at the end of the mass meetings. With the number of volunteers increasing daily, actions soon expanded to kneel-ins at churches, sit-ins at the library, and a march on the county building to register voters. Hundreds were arrested.
On 10 April the city government obtained a state circuit court injunction against the protests. After heavy debate, campaign leaders decided to disobey the court order. King declared: “We cannot in all good conscience obey such an injunction which is an unjust, undemocratic and unconstitutional misuse of the legal process” (ACMHR, 11 April 1963). Plans to continue to submit to arrest were threatened, however, because the money available for cash bonds was depleted, so leaders could no longer guarantee that arrested protesters would be released. King contemplated whether he and Ralph Abernathy should be arrested. Given the lack of bail funds, King’s services as a fundraiser were desperately needed, but King also worried that his failure to submit to arrests might undermine his credibility. King concluded that he must risk going to jail in Birmingham. He told his colleagues: “I don’t know what will happen; I don’t know where the money will come from. But I have to make a faith act” (King, 73).
On Good Friday, 12 April, King was arrested in Birmingham after violating the anti-protest injunction and was kept in solitary confinement. During this time King penned the “Letter from Birmingham Jail” on the margins of the Birmingham News, in reaction to a statement published in that newspaper by eight Birmingham clergymen condemning the protests. King’s request to call his wife, Coretta Scott King, who was at home in Atlanta recovering from the birth of their fourth child, was denied. After she communicated her concern to the Kennedy administration, Birmingham officials permitted King to call home. Bail money was made available, and he was released on 20 April 1963.
In order to sustain the campaign, SCLC organizer James Bevel proposed using young children in demonstrations. Bevel’s rationale for the Children’s Crusade was that young people represented an untapped source of freedom fighters without the prohibitive responsibilities of older activists. On 2 May more than 1,000 African American students attempted to march into downtown Birmingham, and hundreds were arrested. When hundreds more gathered the following day, Commissioner Connor directed local police and fire departments to use force to halt the demonstrations. During the next few days images of children being blasted by high-pressure fire hoses, clubbed by police officers, and attacked by police dogs appeared on television and in newspapers, triggering international outrage. While leading a group of child marchers, Shuttlesworth himself was hit with the full force of a fire hose and had to be hospitalized. King offered encouragement to parents of the young protesters: “Don’t worry about your children, they’re going to be alright. Don’t hold them back if they want to go to jail. For they are doing a job for not only themselves, but for all of America and for all mankind” (King, 6 May 1963).
In the meantime, the white business structure was weakening under adverse publicity and the unexpected decline in business due to the boycott, but many business owners and city officials were reluctant to negotiate with the protesters. With national pressure on the White House also mounting, Attorney General Robert Kennedy sent Burke Marshall, his chief civil rights assistant, to facilitate negotiations between prominent black citizens and representatives of Birmingham’s Senior Citizen's Council, the city’s business leadership.

1. How did Perrault know Spitz was dead? a. He found Spitz's body. b. Spitz was
missing and Buck was covered in wounds. c. He heard the pack attack. Spitz. d. Buck
dragged Spitz's dead body to Perrault.
Answer:
Perrault and François chase Buck around the camp site for about an hour, but Buck easily eludes them. Then realizing that they are losing precious time, the drivers finally yield to Buck's wishes and install him as the lead dog. Buck more than proves his prowess. Immediately, he "shows himself" the superior even of Spitz, of whom François had never seen the equal.
Buck continues to excel in leadership, and the other dogs fall immediately in line and grant Buck his hard-earned superiority. In fact, one of the dogs, Pike, lagging during the day, is soundly punished by Buck for his laziness. Thus the team begins operating in its old superior form, a fact which pleases François and Perrault very much. At one of the stops, the Rink Rapids, two native huskies, Teek and Koona, are added to the team, and Buck immediately coerces them into being members of the team. In record time, the journey from the Rink Rapids to Skagway, their destination, is accomplished.
For three days, Perrault and François brag about their accomplishments, and "the team [is] the constant center of a worshipful crowd of dog busters and mushers." New orders, however, come to the kindly drivers, François and Perrault, and "like other men, they are forced to accept new assignments, and so they leave Buck's life. Buck's new owner is a "Scotch half-breed" and is known only by that name; he is the driver of the mail team over the trail to Dawson. Once again, Buck and his mates set out on the weary and monotonous trail to Dawson. We are told that Buck enjoyed lying near the campfire, at which time he would dream of his old life in the Santa Clara Valley, but — and this is an important point — "he was not homesick." The Sunland was very "dim and distant," and such old memories have no power over him any more. At other times, he ponders the "half-breed cook" who also sits near the campfire. In London's description of the "half-breed cook," it is clear that he wants us to see the half-breed as a type of prehistoric cave man covered with hair, a creature perhaps closer to the animals than to the humans. We are told that "he did not stand erect," but that he had "a trunk that inclined forward from the hips on legs bent at the knees." He is described as a "hairy man" who slept with his "head between his legs."
Buck and his mates are in poor condition due to the lack of rest and recuperation at Skagway, and to make matters worse is the fact that on the way to Dawson, it snows every day, making the journey even more tedious. Once again, London reminds us of his central concern about the survival of the fittest. He tells us that since Buck's career as a sled dog began, he has traveled over 1800 miles, and that 1800 miles will take its toll — even on "the life of the toughest."
One day, Dave, one of the sled dogs, becomes irritable and constantly cries out in intense pain. The drivers can locate no broken bones or visible wounds, but they know that something is wrong, probably internally. The Scotch half-breed, therefore, decides to remove Dave from the team; yet Dave, even in his pain, is resentful. London explains that "the pride of trace and trail was his, and, sick unto death, he could not bear that another dog should do his work." So he runs alongside the sled, which causes him excruciating pain because he deeply desires to be a member of the team. The driver is concerned by Dave's actions, and his comrades "talked of how a dog could break its heart through being denied the work that killed it." The driver decides to harness Dave again, even though he knows that it will surely kill him. The next morning, Dave is too weak to travel, but through an incredible act of physical stamina, Dave bravely stands in line to be harnessed. He constantly trips and falls, and he stumbles, unable to pull along with his teammates, and at last, the driver is forced to remove Dave from the team. Retracing his steps to the camp, the Scotch half-breed takes Dave back with him, and as Buck listens from a distance, there is a crack of a revolver, ending Dave's life on the trail.
Explanation:
The Perrault know Spitz was dead as he heard the pack attack. Thus, option (C) is correct.
What happened to Spitz in Call of the Wild?Spitz and Buck had a fierce rivalry before their last encounter, in which Buck knocks Spitz down and kills him with a massive pack of dogs. Buck then takes over as pack leader and lead dog. Spitz awakens Buck's wild wolf ancestors' primordial impulses.
Spitz rushes him, but Buck fools him by feigning an attack on the other dog's shoulder and then leaping for the leg, shattering it. Spitz collapses, and Buck finishes him off while the other dogs are watching. Therefore, it can be concluded that option (C)is correct.

What is it about television violence that is so compelling to people?
write an essay
Answer:
Explanation:
Violence on TV Most people in our society generally have the opinion that violence on television increases aggression in children and adolescents. Does it ? Who is to say whether television has a positively direct effect or a positive correlation ? However, the majority of the people who have researched this topic have discovered that violence on television is indeed one of the prime factors contributing to the increase in violent and aggressive behavior among the youth in society.
Violence on TV Violence is described in Webster’s dictionary as physical force exerted for the purpose of violating, damaging, or abusing. Violence on TV has been steadily increasing for the past few years. It’s not very often that you will find a TV show in prime time that doesn’t involve some type of violence. According to Hollywood sex and violence sells. The problem with this is that violent programs on television lead to aggressive behavior by children and teenagers
Television Violence and Common Sense It is obvious that children are affected by television. They often pretend to be their favorite character, reenact scenes from movies, and wear clothes featuring their media heroes. As a child, I pretended to be one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles while practicing my fighting skills on invisible bad guys. Although these things are usually a healthy part of growing up, it would be foolish to assume that children are not affected in a negative way
In which of these publications would you expect an informal style?

The definition of a climactic conflict is- "Often, climax is also when the main problem of the story is faced and solved by the main character or protagonist. ... Rising action: The conflict begins to affect the characters, complicating their lives. Climax: The conflict is faced during the main, most dramatic event of the story."

What evidence from part 1 of The Call of the Wild best supports the viewpoint that Buck must constantly learn new lessons if he wishes to survive in his new life?
A) And this was the manner of dog Buck was in the fall of 1897, when the Klondike strike dragged men from all the world into the frozen North. But Buck did not read the newspapers, and he did not know that Manuel, one of the gardener's helpers, was an undesirable acquaintance.
B) Buck had accepted the rope with quiet dignity. To be sure, it was an unwonted performance: but he had learned to trust in men he knew, and to give them credit for a wisdom that outreached his own. But when the ends of the rope were placed in the stranger's hands, he growled menacingly.
C) And Buck was truly a red-eyed devil, as he drew himself together for the spring, hair bristling, mouth foaming, a mad glitter in his blood-shot eyes. Straight at the man he launched his one hundred and forty pounds of fury, surcharged with the pent passion of two days and nights.
D) The scene often came back to Buck to trouble him in his sleep. So that was the way. No fair play. Once down, that was the end of you. Well, he would see to it that he never went down.

D) “He would see to it that he never went down.”
