Explain how the Polis was organized (bottom to top).

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

A Polis was the way a community was organized in ancient Greece. It consisted in:

  1. An Urban Center, which was the site where people lived. It was usually fortified with a wall in case of eventual conflicts. It had areas for public and private purposes, including places like a gymnasium or theatre.
  2. A Sacred Center, which was built and designated for religious purposes.

These centers were built in an Acropolis, which is a natural harbor surrounded by extensions of land.

Each Polis was considered to be a city-state, due to the fact that each had its own political, judicial and legal structure.

Answers

A leader of the Montgomery Bus Boycott who also became the spokesperson for nonviolent protest by African Americans was "Martin Luther King Jr." since he was inspired by the non-violent tactics of Gandhi. 

The correct answer is:

Martin Luther King Jr.

The Montgomery bus boycott was a massive demonstration that had been sparked by the arrest of Rosa Parks on December 1955. It concluded with the U.S. Supreme Curt ruling as unconstitutional the segregation on public buses. It was organized by the Montgomery Improvement Association (MIA) and its president, Martin Luther King, Jr., who became a prominent civil rights leader as international attention focused on Montgomery.

Martin Luther King, Jr. would become a spokesperson for nonviolent protest by African Americans thanks to his use of the power of words and acts of nonviolent resistance.
