Why did general john j. pershing refuse to allow the aef to serve as "fill in the gaps" of soldiers in europe? a)because he did not want to work with the allied powers b)because he knew that a unified american front could intimidate the central powers c)because he could not speak a foreign language d)because his soldiers requested to only serve the us during selective service

the american revolution was between the patriots and the british forces. the patriots believed that they needed independence from great britain, due to "lack of representation" and taxes. this tension resulted in the american revolution where both fought, but ultimately the patriots won. the french revolution was an upsurge/revolt between the monarchy (king louis xvi of france) and the bourgeoisie class (common people) demanding better pay and rights. this ultimately became an overthrow of the government, where king louis xvi of france and his spouse marie antoinette were executed for treason. the mexican revolution was caused by a disagreement on the morality of the dictatorship of president porfirio díaz, who remained in office for 31 years. (! d: )   in effect, the old and radical government was changed by the people to meet the economic needs of the people (yes diaz surrendered xd) all 3 revolutions were in response to another political power that controlled the freedom and liberty of the minority population. the british controlled the patriots. king louis xvi controlled the people of france, and dictator diaz controlled the poor civilians of mexico.

- "the civil rights movements"

- "following the american civil war and abolition of slavery, the united states entered a period known as reconstruction, during which black americans continued to suffer from disenfranchisement, racial segregation, and economic oppression. beginning in the early 1950's, black americans launched a series of major campaigns of civil resistance, emphasizing the need for nonviolent protests and civil disobedience."

"such as the montgomery bus boycott of 1955-56, a campaign launched by rosa parks against the policy of racial segregation of the public transit system in alabama. “sit-ins” became popular across the american south, particularly in greensboro, north carolina, increase national sentiment."

- "the counterculture movement"

- "counterculture began to develop in the united states following the rise of conformity in american culture during the 1950s. by 1963, youth, particularly those of the white middle class, began rejecting the cultural standards and normality of their parents, opting for progressive attitudes instead. the movement gained momentum as the civil rights movement became increasingly successful and as the u.s. military intervention of vietnam began to take a negative turn."

"hippie counterculture moved further into popular culture following the summer of love in 1967 when thousands of people came together in the haight-ashbury neighborhood of san francisco. along with greenwich village in new york city, haight-ashbury became a hub for the counterculture movement."
