Nutka1998 [239]

The Compromise of 1850 included a much harsher fugitive slave law. It also comprised all of the following, with the exception of Kansas, which joined the Union as a slave state.

A new, more stringent Fugitive Slave Law Congress enacted a harsh fugitive slave statute, requiring authorities in all states and territories to help in the recapture of enslaved persons who had fled to freedom or paid a significant fee.

As the political confrontation between abolitionists in the North and slaveowners in the South escalated, Congress approved the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which imposed tougher sanctions for interfering with slaveowners' recovery of runaway slaves.

The legislation jeopardized the safety of all blacks, slave and free, and caused many Northerners to become more outspoken in their support for fugitives.

ZanzabumX [31]

What policy did Britain pursue during the reign of William and Mary?
marta [7]

Answer:

The English Bill of Rights

Explanation:

The Glorious Revolution was when William of Orange took the English throne from James II in 1688. The event brought a permanent realignment of power within the English constitution. A more contentious argument is that the constitutional changes made property rights more secure and thus promoted economic development.

The English Bill of Rights (1689) was drawn up by Parliament and signed by William and Mary in 1689. The bill was conceived to ensure that the power of the monarchy would be, in the future, limited and that Parliament could function free from royal interference.

William and Mary proclaimed joint sovereigns of Britain. The Bill of Rights, which greatly limited royal power and broadened constitutional law, granted Parliament control of finances and the army and prescribed the future line of royal succession, declaring that no Roman Catholic would ever be sovereign of England.

Name the social movements that altered American society after World War I
laiz [17]
There were multiple significant social movements after World War I including:

1) Harlem Renaissance- This movement revolved around the explosion of African-American music, art, writing, and culture. During this era, many African-American citizens lived in big cities  (like Harlem) and used their talents in order to captivate American citizens. This was a small step towards improved relations between white and black citizens, as they found common interests in things like jazz music.

2) Women's Rights Movement- Women played a significant part in the war effort during World War I. This prompted many women to demand more rights, especially voting rights. This movement that started right after World War I resulted in the passing of the 19th amendment, which granted women the right to vote.
