"Nilda" written by Nicholasa Mohr reflects the discrimination suffered by women. Some examples of these are:

  • Mama's efforts to take care of her large family—five children, sick husband, crazy aunt, and pregnant girl friend of one son.
  • When Nilda is sent to a Catholic charity camp and forced along with other girls to take nightly doses of milk of magnesia by a terrifying, smiling nun. She is really humilliated.
  • Miss Reilly, a language teacher who is trying to teach Castilian Spanish to her class of Rican students.

Answer:

I like Sci-Fi. It's great how creative authors can get while writing them. I've read books like Last Day On Mars and Hungar Game, Divergent and a few other similar series. It's crazy to imagine what like could be like if you were in these books.

After the citizens of Gonzales started shooting make-shift ammunition from the cannon, Castaneda...
deff fn [24]

Answer:The Battle of Gonzales was the first military engagement of the Texas Revolution. It was fought near Gonzales, Texas, on October 2, 1835, between rebellious Texian settlers and a detachment of Mexican army soldiers.

In 1831, Mexican authorities lent the settlers of Gonzales a small cannon to help protect them from frequent Comanche raids. Over the next four years, the political situation in Mexico deteriorated, and in 1835 several states revolted. As the unrest spread, Colonel Domingo de Ugartechea, the commander of all Mexican troops in Texas, felt it unwise to leave the residents of Gonzales with a weapon and requested the return of the cannon.

When the initial request was refused, Ugartechea sent 100 dragoons to retrieve the cannon. The soldiers neared Gonzales on September 29, but the colonists used a variety of excuses to keep them from the town, while secretly sending messengers to request assistance from nearby communities. Within two days, up to 140 Texians gathered in Gonzales, all determined not to give up the cannon. On October 1, settlers voted to initiate a fight. Mexican soldiers opened fire as Texians approached their camp in the early hours of October 2. After several hours of desultory firing, the Mexican soldiers withdrew.[1]

Although the skirmish had little military significance, it marked a clear break between the colonists and the Mexican government and is considered to have been the start of the Texas Revolution. News of the skirmish spread throughout the United States, where it was often referred to as the "Lexington of Texas". The cannon's fate is disputed. It may have been buried and rediscovered in 1936, or it may have been seized by Mexican troops after the Battle of the Alamo.

The majority of the japanese-americans who were interned during the war were not actually citizens of the united states.
AleksandrR [38]
That statement is FALSE.

Two-thirds of the Japanese-Americans who were confined to internment camps were natural-born citizens of the USA.  There were around 70,000 of these persons who were citizens of the US, born in the US, who were included along with those who were first-generation Japanese immigrants to the country.  It didn't matter who you were or what your profession.  If you were of Japanese ancestry, you were considered suspect.
