Which of following events was not part of the Compromise of 1850?
shusha [124]

The correct answer is A) Slavery would be abolished in Washington DC.

The Compromise of 1850 was a critical law, as it helped to prevent the Civil War from starting in the 1850's. Due to America's expansion into the west and the newly gained territory after the Mexican American War, Northern and Southern politicians were arguing constantly over whether or not slavery will exist in these new territories.

To make both sides satisfied, Henry Clay helped to develop the Compromise of 1850.This included California becoming a free state, New Mexico and Utah using popular sovereignty to determine whether or not slavery would exist, and the slave trade would be outlawed in Washington DC.  However, this law said nothing about the actual institution of slavery in DC.

Why did Africa become the site of so many proxy wars during the postwar era?
BigorU [14]

Answer: It became the site of many wars during the era because, after World War II, the tension between communist and democratic forms of government strained relations between the Soviet Union and the United States and provided the ideological underpinnings of the Cold War. These tensions almost boiled over into full on conflict several times, especially as nuclear arms proliferation and testing advanced rapidly during the late 1950s and early 1960s. Both nations found it critical to expand their spheres of influence, largely by promoting leadership in the “Third World” that would be sympathetic to their causes. Arguably more important, however, was the ability to have friendly governments that could be used as allies to fight conventional wars or provide bases for the placement of nuclear warheads in the case of nuclear warfare. By using both diplomatic and military power, the United States and the Soviet Union attempted to carve out areas that could be utilized as staging grounds against one another.

Taking into consideration the conservative social and cultural context of the United States in the 1950s, discuss how rock and r
pshichka [43]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

In 1950s , through Rock n Roll, many blacks or African American used the genre of music coupled with R&B to voice their opinions and advocate for civil rights movement.

Rock n Roll was characterized by its youthful and stylistic sound and dance, popularized by the likes of Elvis Presley, with his hip gyration. While it eventually pitted parents, the mass media, and the government against teenagers, it however, helped erode some of the prejudices felt towards African Americans.

Also, while the country and jazz hold sway before and early in the 1950s, the Rock and Roll music was able to trump them later, though dividing in some quarters, it became a uniting force among the youths and coloured people specifically blacks, and eventually was able to create a common culture amongst white and black teenagers, a feat other genres of music couldn't manage at the time.
