Minimum sentencing laws affected <u>African Americans</u> disproportionately because powder cocaine was often consumed by <u>White people.</u>

Douglass declares to his audience that “This Fourth [of] July is yours, not mine.” What does he mean in this statement?
lesya692 [45]
Douglas means that the 4th of July is a celebration of freedom, but how could African Americans celebrate a day of freedom if they were still enslaved? The audience spoken to was primarily white, so in turn, the white population of America may celebrate their freedom on the 4th but for all the enslaved blacks it was not a day to rejoice because they had not yet gained their freedom

The ________ were greek citizen soldiers who fought together in a phalanx to make a formidable heavy infantry
jonny [76]
Ancient Greek-citizen soldiers who fought together in a phalanx were called Hoplites.

Hoplites were not professional soldiers but they comprised the bulk of ancient Greek armies of the time. They were mostly represented by free citizens such as propertied farmers and artisans who could afford the weapons and armors. Hoplites were primarily armed with shields and spears and often utilized the phalanx formation as an effective war strategy especially when battling with fewer soldiers. 

The illustration below shows an example of a phalanx formation (Source: http://www.ancientgreekbattles.net/Pics/669505_PhalArgos.jpg).

What did president eisenhower say about integration?
quester [9]

President Eisenhower said about integration that integration was a law and therefore needed to be enforced and also followed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Eisenhower did not like the fact that there was segregation in public schools and other public places. He did not like the racial discrimination and wanted equal rights for blacks as well as whites.

He was for giving all citizens their civil rights in the country but did not speak much about them. He did not act vigorously and therefore was not acknowledged for many of his efforts.
