In his speech Roosevelt made no mention of Germany and the war in Europe. Why?

1 answer:

4 0

Roosevelt did not mention Germany and the war in Europe in his speech because his main aim was to make sure that America stayed out of the war. He did not want the American people to become involved in foreign wars. What he did do, however, is provide weapons to the Allies to help them fight the war. It would seem that by providing the Allies with weapons he was hoping that the citizens of the USA would never become involved in the war.

What was one weakness of the Articles of Confederation in establishing the first government of the United States?

shepuryov [24]

The answer is A. because it was already tiresome to get 9 nine states out of 13 states to vote on an amendment.

Choice B. is incorrect because the British only required their war costs at the end of the Constitution. Choice C. is incorrect because the Virginia plan (large states) and the New Jersey plan (small states) took place after the Constitution. Choice D. was a major benefit, so that wasn't a weakness.

Answer:

Kipling clearly liked the idea of enslaving the people of one Asian country on the other side of the world. The White Man's Burden was written with the sole intention of persuading Americans not to give freedom to the Philippines. On the other hand the political cartoon is obviously is showing that the white man is carrying all other races on his back, and that without him they wouldn't prosper.

Explanation:

This poem was once very popular. It was written in 1899, at a time when Filipinos were fighting for independence from the United States of America. Many readers today are probably not aware of the fact that the United States colonized the Philippines.

Poem is, by modern standards, extremely offensive. The author calls the population of another race "freshly caught, frowned upon people" who are "half devil and half children." He criticizes them for not accepting white people as "better than themselves" and those who "brought them to the light of day" by colonization.

"White man's burden" is a term synonymous with English imperialism and racism in the English-speaking world today.
