In the 1800's employers did not give into the demands for higher wages and safer workplaces because they were very greedy. They cared more about making a profit than the lives of the workers because they knew that if someone was injured or quit, there would be many more people eager to take that job, even if it paid little and was dangerous.

Which of these phrases best summarizes the trend represented by this graph?
OLEGan [10]

The answer is: C

This is because the graph indicates the sharp decline of the rural population, due to in large part to the increase in urbanization and the ever-growing industrialization of the United States throughout the decades.

As such we can analyze that, as the years go by the population trends to move to urban areas in place of rural ones.

What does the quote :
MrRa [10]

Answer:

The quote means that the whites will never admit the issue of racism and discrimination that the blacks were treated with.

Explanation:

The given quote is spoken by Malcolm X, an African-American human rights activist, popular for his civil rights leadership. Amidst fighting for the rights and unity of the African-Americans, he was shot dead while giving a speech at the Audubon Ballroom in Washington Heights.

The given quote from the historical personality is a metaphorical expression of racism and the identity of Black nationalism. But at the same time, he propagated the idea of the blacks as being their own foe, and their need to be united if they were to achieve any civil rights for themselves. By suggesting that <em>"progress is healing the wound that the blow made"</em>, he is talking about the issue of racism that the whites had propagated, that the whites are superior to the blacks. His statement that<em> "they won't even admit the knife is there"</em> suggests that the whites won't admit racism is there, let alone accept the pain and discrimination they've been treated with. The knife here represents the racism, the prejudice against the blacks.

If I were to write a letter regarding this case, I would speak against the verdict.  Komatsu like majority of Japanese Americans came to the U.S. to live a better life. Many of them enlisted in the U.S. army to prove that they were just as loyal as any White American.  I believe this verdict was unjust.
