The correct answer is A: Public schools may not exclude students because of their sex or race. If public schools would exclude students because of their sex or race, their opportunities wouldn't be equal. Equal opportunity  is a stipulation that all people should be treated similarly, unhampered by artificial barriers or prejudices or preferences, except when particular distinctions can be explicitly justified. The one of the most important points of this concept is that the important jobs in society should go to those "most qualified", <span>and not to persons for arbitrary or irrelevant reasons, such as circumstances of birth, upbringing, having well-connected relatives or friends.</span>

Stella [2.4K]

The constitution provides for a parliamentary system of government and guarantees certain fundamental rights. Under its terms the Emperor of Japan is "the symbol of the State and of the unity of the people" and exercises a purely ceremonial role without the possession of sovereignty.

The constitution, also known as the "Post-war Constitution" <span>(戦後憲法, Sengo-Kenpō?)</span> or the "Peace Constitution" <span>(平和憲法, Heiwa-Kenpō?)</span>, is best known for its Article 9, by which Japan renounces its right to wage war; and to a lesser extent, the provision for de jure popular sovereignty in conjunction with the monarchy.

The constitution was drawn up under the Allied occupation that followed World War II and was intended to replace Japan's previous militaristic and system of quasi-absolute monarchy with a form of liberal democracy. No amendment has been made to it since its adoption.<span>[1]</span>

Summarize the significance of James Meredith actions in 1962
serg [7]

Answer:

James Meredith was an African American civil right activist who in 1962 decided to take the bull its horn by taking a bold step to exercise his constitutional and civil right to education by applying to the University of Mississippi at a time when segregation was the order of the day, and blacks where not allowed to attend the same school with the whites. He was inspired by the inaugural speech of President John F. Kennedy. He became the first African American to be admitted into the segregated University of Mississippi. The significance of his action lies in the facts that it gave a voice to other African Americans to exercise their constitutional rights, and it was also part of what triggered the movement that brought an end to segregation in America. His action was a flash point in the history of civil right movement in America.

If you were a member of Congress how would you have treated the South after the Civil War? Would you have had different plans li
SIZIF [17.4K]
I would most possibly do the same thing, or take the south back to US as brothers, but I might also add a little punishment. The punishment would be limited import for a period of years (1, or 5). I would also not allow them to vote or participate in any political meeting, congressional decisions, etc.

Hope this helps, you might have a different opinion however, but as I think, it would be better to punish them for
1. Not obeying the rules (still having slavery)
2. Electing a secondary president.
3. Helping the war happen.
4. Trying to become independent from the rest of US.
