The speech says, "A childhood friend once said about Mrs. Parks, 'Nobody
ever bossed Rosa around and got away with it." How is this quote supported
in the rest of the text?
Explanation:
THE PRESIDENT: Mr. Speaker, Leader Reid, Leader McConnell, Leader Pelosi, Assistant Leader Clyburn; to the friends and family of Rosa Parks; to the distinguished guests who are gathered here today.
This morning, we celebrate a seamstress, slight in stature but mighty in courage. She defied the odds, and she defied injustice. She lived a life of activism, but also a life of dignity and grace. And in a single moment, with the simplest of gestures, she helped change America -- and change the world.
Rosa Parks held no elected office. She possessed no fortune; lived her life far from the formal seats of power. And yet today, she takes her rightful place among those who’ve shaped this nation’s course. I thank all those persons, in particular the members of the Congressional Black Caucus, both past and present, for making this moment possible. (Applause.)
A childhood friend once said about Mrs. Parks, “Nobody ever bossed Rosa around and got away with it.” (Laughter.) That’s what an Alabama driver learned on December 1, 1955. Twelve years earlier, he had kicked Mrs. Parks off his bus simply because she entered through the front door when the back door was too crowded. He grabbed her sleeve and he pushed her off the bus. It made her mad enough, she would recall, that she avoided riding his bus for a while.
And when they met again that winter evening in 1955, Rosa Parks would not be pushed. When the driver got up from his seat to insist that she give up hers, she would not be pushed. When he threatened to have her arrested, she simply replied, “You may do that.”
A few days later, Rosa Parks challenged her arrest. A little-known pastor, new to town and only 26 years old, stood with her -- a man named Martin Luther King, Jr. So did thousands of Montgomery, Alabama commuters. They began a boycott -- teachers and laborers, clergy and domestics, through rain and cold and sweltering heat, day after day, week after week, month after month, walking miles if they had to, arranging carpools where they could, not thinking about the blisters on their feet, the weariness after a full day of work -- walking for respect, walking for freedom, driven by a solemn determination to affirm their God-given dignity.
It’s been often remarked that Rosa Parks’s activism didn’t begin on that bus. Long before she made headlines, she had stood up for freedom, stood up for equality -- fighting for voting rights, rallying against discrimination in the criminal justice system, serving in the local chapter of the NAACP. Her quiet leadership would continue long after she became an icon of the civil rights movement, working with Congressman Conyers to find homes for the homeless, preparing disadvantaged youth for a path to success, striving each day to right some wrong somewhere in this world.
And yet our minds fasten on that single moment on the bus -- Ms. Parks alone in that seat, clutching her purse, staring out a window, waiting to be arrested. That moment tells us something about how change happens, or doesn’t happen; the choices we make, or don’t make. “For now we see through a glass, darkly,” Scripture says, and it’s true. Whether out of inertia or selfishness, whether out of fear or a simple lack of moral imagination, we so often spend our lives as if in a fog, accepting injustice, rationalizing inequity, tolerating the intolerable.
Like the bus driver, but also like the passengers on the bus, we see the way things are -- children hungry in a land of plenty, entire neighborhoods ravaged by violence, families hobbled by job loss or illness -- and we make excuses for inaction, and we say to ourselves, that's not my responsibility, there’s nothing I can do.
Rosa Parks tell us there’s always something we can do. She tells us that we all have responsibilities, to ourselves and to one another. She reminds us that this is how change happens -- not mainly through the exploits of the famous and the powerful, but through the countless acts of often anonymous courage and kindness and fellow feeling and responsibility that continually, stubbornly, expand our conception of justice -- our conception of what is possible.
Rosa Parks’s singular act of disobedience launched a movement. The tired feet of those who walked the dusty roads of Montgomery helped a nation see that to which it had once been blind. It is because of these men and women that I stand here today. It is because of them that our children grow up in a land more free and more fair; a land truer to its founding creed.
And that is why this statue belongs in this hall -- to remind us, no matter how humble or lofty our positions, just what it is that leadership requires; just what it is that citizenship requires. Rosa Parks would have turned 100 years old this month. We do well by placing a statue of her here. But we can do no greater honor to her memory than to carry forward the power of her principle and a courage born of conviction.

Can someone give me an explanation of the ways the groups within the Indian caste system interact or relate to one another
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
There are four groups within the Indian caste system and they are Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and the Shudras.
Each of the groups is defined by its hierarchical wealth status. People in each of these groups only communicate within themselves.
That is, the people in the upper class only interact with those in the upper class, but not with those in the middle class or lower class, the same thing applies to other classes.
The India Caste system interaction is based on the belief that interacting with those in the class below you is humiliating and embarrassing.
what was the groups goal federalists and antifederalists
The Federalists wanted a strong government and strong executive branch, while the anti-Federalists wanted a weaker central government. The Federalists did not want a bill of rights —they thought the new constitution was sufficient. The anti-federalists demanded a bill of rights.

Which of the following statements about the seasoning of enslaved Africans is accurate? Select the best answer from the choices provided. A. Falling ill during seasoning was a myth and was not based on actual experiences. B. The seasoning period claimed the lives of many enslaved Africans before they started working. C. European colonists had less immunity than enslaved Africans to the tropical diseases that attacked in the seasoning period. D. Diseases during seasoning only affected those who changed their diet in the Americas.
Answer: B. The seasoning period claimed the lives of many enslaved Africans before they started working.
Explanation:
Seasoning was a heinous process inflicted on newly enslaved Africans when they first arrived into captivity in the Americas. It involved engaging in practices that were meant to acclimatise the newly enslaved to the conditions in the new continent because afterwards, they had higher survival rates and commanded better prices.
The seasoning period involved a lot of beating, malnourishment and heinous living quarters which brought disease to the enslaved. Needless to say many died during this period including those who wilfully committed sui-cide rather than submit to the horrible nature of slavery.

How does the conflict between Paul and his German-master reveal different attitudes towards World War I? Respond in three to five sentences.
Answer and Explanation:
Paul begins to see the war as something horrible, destructive and disturbing. He realizes that there is nothing patriotic about it, nothing beautiful and admirable and that war is a terrorizing situation, long and that does not promote anything good for anyone. However, the German-master continues to refer to the war as something patriotic, which promotes courage and builds the soldier's spirit. This is what causes the conflict between the two characters, because this attitude of the German-master in relation to the war, makes Paul feel repulsion for him.
