History

ELEN [110]3 years ago

The correct answer would be A. Taxing the colonies without their approval.

This is largely why the phrase 'no taxation without representation' existed to express dislike of the crown in the 1700's.

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

That statement is true

Explanation:

The income generated by the previous generation usually passed through the second generation through inheritance.

By the time the second generation become an adult and compete with one another, the generation that received large inheritance can compete with overwhelming advantage against the poor generation that grow up without inheritance. As a result, the gap of income became even wider.

Identify What were the Freedom Rides?
TEA [102]

Q.1 What were feedom riders?

The Freedom Rides of 1961 was a revolutionary movement where black and white people refused to sit in their designated areas of buses to protest segregation. Blacks sat in the front of the bus and whites sat in the back, opposite of the usual arrangements. There were multiple different rides from several different locations and a variety of people. At every stop, the freedom riders would use the opposite segregated facilities such as bathrooms, restaurants, and water fountains

Q.2.where and when?

They began in Washington DC on May 4, 1961 and went to New Orleans originally. But the rides sparked a revolution and inspired many other people from several states to take part in the freedom rides and support the fight for racial justice.

Q.3who was involved?

The idea was conceived by The Congress of Racial Equality and the first ride involved 7 blacks and 6 whites who boarded the bus in Washington D.C. Many Freedom Riders were trained Civil Rights Activists who practiced peaceful protest and lead with bravery. Some were even involved in the diner sit in's the year before.

Q.4.why?

They intended to test the Supreme Court's ruling in Boynton v. Virginia (1960), which declared segregation in interstate bus and rail stations unconstitutional but was failing to be enforced.

Boynton vs Virginia was a court case about a man named Bruce Boynton who was in a restaurant within a "white only" bus terminal and refused to leave. He was arrested for trespassing, but the offense was turned over by the Supreme Court because "white only" and "black only" areas were deemed unconstitutional through Brown v. Board of Education (1954).

This was also the next step towards anti-segregation that promoted the ideas brought on by diner sit in's that took place in the previous year.

The Freedom Rides also had the goal of gaining not only public attention but also the attention of the Kennedy Association in order to raise awareness of the rising Civil Rights Movement.

Why was the Massachusetts bay colony so successful immediately?
Harman [31]

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!!!!

Explanation:

The Puritans of the Massachusetts Bay colony hoped to purify the Church of England and then return to Europe with a new and improved religion. These Puritans were more initially successful than other colonies. For example, they brought enough supplies from the outset, they arrived in the springtime instead of the winter, and they had good leadership. The local government and the church were very closely related, and only church members could vote for the General Court even though everyone was required to pay taxes. Old Testament law became the law of the community. Even though they left England to pursue religious freedom, the Massachusetts Bay Puritans were known for their religious intolerance and general suspicion of democracy. They generally felt that the common people were incapable of governing themselves.
