What social, economic, and material gains did African Americans make after the civil rights era? Why did some black Americans do

konstantin123 [22]

After the Civil Rights Era, many black people were able to thrive and make significant social, economic and material gains. Many African-Americans moved to cities in order to find better work opportunities. Others decided to pursue higher education, as institutions were more accepting of their enrolment. Many African-Americans joined the middle class and were able to buy houses in desirable areas.

There are many reasons why gains were not the same across the board. While many African-Americans took advantage of these opportunities, others were stuck in a cycle of poverty and oppression that originated during slavery. Others lived in communities where these opportunities were not available, or faced high levels of discrimination and racism.

The black community, as many other communities, has a class stratification. This means that many within the community belong to high classes, many others are middle class, and many are from the lower classes, regardless of the fact that they share the same skin colour. Because of this, sometimes tensions can arise within the community. Many people from the lower classes might resent higher ones, while people from the higher classes can sometimes fail to see the constraints that the lower classes have.

Which of these is a major DIFFERENCE between the Georgia Constitution and the U.S. Constitution? A) Only the U.S. Constitution d

Makovka662 [10]

The correct answer is C. U.S. Supreme Court justices are appointed while Georgia Supreme Court justices are elected.

Let's review the truthfulness of the other three options:

A. Only the U.S. Constitution deals with individual rights and freedoms. This is false. Georgia Constitution in the First Section of Article One, describes the state's Bill of Rights, 28 paragraphs of individual rights.

B. Only the U.S. Constitution specifically creates a legislative branch of the government. This is also false. Georgia’s legislative branch, since 1777, when the first state constitution was created, is similar to the U.S. Congress in that it is bicameral, or has two chambers or houses. Georgia’s legislative branch is called the General Assembly.

D. An American president can only serve two consecutive four-year terms in office, but a Georgia governor can serve three consecutive four-year terms. This is wrong because a Governor of the State is limited to two consecutive four-year terms of office.

Finally, the nine Judges of the Georgia State Court are selected using the nonpartisan election of judges system. On the other hand, the President of the United States nominate, with the advice and confirmation of the Senate, the justices to the Supreme Court.
