Explanation:

• Question 22:
• The U.S. faced challenges in winning the "hearts and minds" of the Vietnamese people. Also, domestic opposition to the war grew. The Viet Cong did not have superior technology compared to the U.S. (the U.S. had more advanced weaponry). And the Viet Cong's influence on anti - war demonstrations in the U.S. was not the main reason for U.S. failure.
• Question 23:
• The SNCC was a grassroots organization. They did not rely on outsiders from the North in the way described. They were non - violent, so they did not rely on violence. A letter - writing campaign was not their main approach. Their focus was on a grassroots social movement to end segregation.

Answer:

• Question 22: The United States was unable to win the "hearts and minds" of the Vietnamese people and minimize opposition to the war at home.
• Question 23: Organized a grass - roots social movement to force southerners to end segregation.
