First of all, I think you mean 'determined.'   MLKJ stood up for his beliefs and morals, despite death threats, being arrested, and being beaten many times.  He stood up for racial equality and peaceful protest, and made such a significant contribution to our country as far as civil rights is concerned.

I don't know that much about Georgia except that the women look beautiful in pictures, the people seem to live longer than normal and Stalin was from there.  Tell me more.

Basics like 'how to participate', at least one of his representatives, and who the president is (prob sec. of state too.)\n\nThen there's the history... should know who we got independence from, first president, and a bit about social equality and the fight for rights for blacks and women. (refrencing Rossie the Riviter, Rosa Parks, MLK Jr. and Lincoln)

He was a high ranking official in the former Soviet Union and he later became President of the Republic of Georgia.  He was removed from office following the famous Rose Revolution.

The civil War and the wars of the twentieth century are definetly turning points in the growth of civil rights. For example the end of the civil war along with the 13TH amendment bring cahanges in America. During reconstruction blacks are protected by the Freedmens Bureau which helps them out toget their voting rights. During reconstruction thanks to this bureau and both carpetbaggers and scalawags the 14th and 15th amendments are passed which define citizenship and male suffrage.With the hayes-tilden election comes the crime of 77 which allows the KKK to take power in the south but not for long because president Grant enforces  a force bill which ends the klan, but not forever. Then in ww2 there were many riots because blacks weren't allowed to be mixed with whites. This created the civil rights movement with all kinds of awr taking place like the korean and vietnam. Sit ins and freedom riders would help the movement.

Obviously no one read the question and explanation. He didn’t ask who Coretta Scott King was, he asked what she as an individual did to deserve such a publicized event, and the overwhelming attention she received at her funeral. (And someone is going to attempt to strip someone else of credentials, try “competency” before you do that , sweetheart.)\n\nCoretta Scott King is referred to as the “First Lady of Civil Rights.” Due in majority to the accomplishments of her husband, Rev/Dr Martin Luther King, Jr. Majority of Mrs. King’s publicity and fame was derived from her husbands legacy. Mrs. King’s accomplishments included being a concert singer, founding the Martin Luther King, Jr Center for Nonviolent Social Change in Atlanta, and managing to get a national holiday in her husbands name. Other than that, Mrs. King was a speaker who often spoke on issues and ideas that her husband created or main-streamed. Apparently prior to meeting MLK, Jr she was a peace activist, but no proof is available for her work or accomplishments. If you research Mrs. King, you’ll find the items listed above. Majority of the information and “accomplishments” available are of MLK, Jr, not Mrs. King. Other sources will tell you she was a wife, and mother. Her parents homes, and homes that she and MLK, Jr shared were bombed, and other various information. However, the greatest accomplishment of Mrs. King was preserving and promoting awareness of her husband’s legacy. From what I’ve researched, she really didn’t do anything other than that. Sorry, folks, but research it yourselves if you have reason to believe I am wrong. The attention received at Mrs. King’s funeral was more than likely as a result of observance of her husband’s legacy, same as in everything else about Mrs. King.

1993 first year but voted for in 1992\n\nA number of states resisted celebrating the holiday. Some opponents said King did not deserve his own holiday—contending that the entire civil rights movement rather than one individual, however instrumental, should be honored. Several southern states include celebrations for various Confederate generals on that day. Arizona voters approved the holiday in 1992 after a tourist boycott. In 1999, New Hampshire changed the name of Civil Rights Day to Martin Luther King, Jr., Day

Colin Powell, Martin Luther King Jr., George Bush.... The list could go on. Abe Lincoln is a good one.

I think you are referring to the Ayers Desegregation case.  It was a very lengthy case (at least twenty years).  Check the archives of Jackson, Miss. newspaper www.clarionledger.com
