Who wrote the Kansas-Nebraska Act?

Social Studies
1 answer:
alina1380 [7]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:   Senator Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois and President Franklin Pierce.

Context/details:

The Kansas-Nebraska Act enacted by Congress in 1854. It granted popular sovereignty to the people in the Kansas and Nebraska territories, letting them decide whether they'd allow slavery.  In essence, this made the Kansas-Nebraska act a repeal of the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which had said there would be no slavery north of latitude 36°30´ except for Missouri.

After the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers rushed into Kansas to try to sway the outcome of the issue, and violence between the two sides occurred.  The term "bleeding Kansas" was used because of the bloodshed.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

Mai is experiencing the stage called reentry culture shock.

Explanation:

Reentry culture shock or reverse culture shock is experienced by 85% of the people who immerse in the culture of a different country. Upon returning home, they go through a period of adjustment, just like they did upon arriving at the country they were visiting. Symptoms of reentry culture shock include boredom, restlessness, resentment, isolation, feeling misunderstood, etc. It is common for people to still feel attached to the culture from where they are returning. That seems to be the case with Mai. While she is excited to tell everyone about her experiences, she fails to see that they are not as exciting to others as they are to her. She probably feels isolated and even misunderstood.
