The correct answer is D) the Great Migration.
The historical event that Zora Neale Hurston is describing in this quote is the Great Migration.
There was a time in the modern history of the United States when more than 6 million African Americans from the southern states decided to move up north. This was known as the Great Migration.
Black people who lived in the poor and rural areas of the southern states decided to move to the North and Midwest. The migration started around 1916 and finally ended in 1970.
The reason?
African Americans were tired of segregationism practices in the South and decided to migrate to the North, where the big industries needed extra hands in the factories to operate the machines during World War I. What these people were looking for was a better life for their families.
C. A group of policemen were acquitted of charges after they beat an African American man.
The correct answer is Brazil.
Brazil was the last country in the world to abolish slavery.
The Portuguese who colonized the country used the hand if slave labor and this culture was perpetuated until the end of the Portuguese empire.
It<u> was only in 1988 that Isabel, the heir of the Portuguese empire in Brazil, signed a document called </u><u>The Aurean Law</u><u>, which freed all 700,000 slaves from the country, which had 15 million inhabitants.</u> The Aurean Law marks a political context of pressures for the end of slavery and, almost four centuries after its discovery, Brazil became a country without slaves, the result of much political and social struggle.

The Shawnee later combined with the Miami into a great fighting force in the Ohio Valley, after the Revolution, during the Northwest Indian War between the United States and a confederation of Native American tribes. After being defeated at the Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794, most of the Shawnee bands signed the Treaty of Greenville the next year. They were forced to cede large parts of their homeland to the new United States. Other Shawnee groups rejected this treaty, migrating independently to Missouri west of the Mississippi River, where they settled along Apple Creek near Cape Girardeau.
Answer:
The commander of all the Japanese emperor's military forces was the Shogun.
Explanation:
Shogun was a Japanese title originally used to designate military lords who, on the emperor's behalf, conducted campaigns against Japan's indigenous people, ainu .
From 1192 to 1886 (with some exceptions, for example, 1333-1336), the title came to be used as a designation for Japan's highest military commander (periodically the country's de facto ruler).
Initially, the position was given to emissaries in eastern Japan who did not want to bow to the Kyoto central government during the Heian period. The title was temporary and was eventually discontinued when the entire country was subordinate to the central government.
