Civil Rights Can Responsibility and Research Paper

Under the new policy, the United States was committed to keep all commitments to treaties, provide a shield if nuclear power threatens the freedom of an ally or a nation that is important to U.S. security, and, in cases of other aggression, supply military economic assistance in accordance with treaty commitments, but should look to the nation threatened to assume primary responsibility to provide its own manpower for its defense. The goal was to reduce U.S. aid as the other country strengthens its own military for protection against attack.

Each of these movements created feelings that action was needed to force the government to enforce the laws they had created. Some of them took actions in protests, some in advocating for certain rights, and some took actions using violence. Where women took actions to advocate for women's rights, youth took actions of rebellion against traditions and voicing discontent and disagreement through music, using drugs, different apparel, and looking for pleasure.

Some black groups protested by being in 'white only' places without the use of violence. The violence was from these protests stemmed from the police violence in efforts from keeping them from protesting for their rights. Some groups, such as the Black Panthers, took actions of violence in protests to police violence. Each of the incidences produced media coverage the government was forced to look at.

Responsibility and freedom can go hand in hand. By forcing the government to take its responsibility, the freedom of equal rights for all citizens came about from enacting laws and other legislative efforts that enforced consequences for not following the laws. In all these past events, the end result was the government taking responsibility in making and enforcing laws. This brought freedom to all citizens in rights of equal education, employment, and housing, regardless of gender or race.
