Answer:

The owner identified their runaway slaves and servant by describing their clothing and how they talk. Sometimes with identification mark in their body. Owners sometimes directed the slave hunters with the direction they have run, who found fugitives (slaves) with the help of dogs. Slaves and servant considered to be the property of their master, who had right to sold and purchase them.

Many landowners, especially in Virginia found that runaway slaves were better and manageable than the servants since the slaves can be determined by their skin, so it was so easy to identify and to capture runaway servants. This lead to more slaves were preferred rather than the servants.

The Populist and Progressive reformers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries brought about widespread changes to American po

Bingel [31]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Three of the key reform movements of the Progressive era were the following. Reformation of the civil rights, reformation of the US federal government to end corruption acts, and reformation for the conservation of the environment.

These reformers were people such as W.EB. Du Bois, Theodore Roosevelt, and Robert La Follette.

What motivated them to initiate and support these reformation movements was the lofe for his country, the compassion they felt for other Americans, his spirit to do things right, to clean the government from corruption and corrupt politicians, and to improve the living conditions of the American society.

Let's get the proper context to understand the problems reformers faced to establish their reformations in the country.

During the Gilded Age, there was so much corruption that allowed the Robber Barons of America to create monopolies that destroyed small and medium-sized companies. We are talking about people like Jhon D. Rockefeller owner of the Standard Oil Company or Andrew Carnegie, owner of the American Steel Company, who grew to become the wealthiest men in the United States with their monopolies. They fought against the creation of labor unions and exploited their workers to make big profits.

Reformers had the conviction to fight and promote big changes in American society.

Muckrakers journalists exposed those corruption acts and progressive reformers demanded changes in the federal government legislation to reverse the situation.

Robert La Follette, governor of Wisconsin, reformed taxes, elections, invested in railroads, and created his program "Wisconsin Idea," to invite people from Wisconsin to actively participate in politics.

W.EB. Du Bois was one of the most important civil rights activists of his time. He wrote "The Souls of Black folks" in 1903. and his ideas helped t form the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).

US President Theodore Roosevelt was known as the greatest conservationist of America. He was so interested in protecting the environment, the wildlife, and the natural resources of the United States.

So these reformers had great convictions and dedicated his life to propose changes that impacted the way American people lived and made changes to had a long-lasting consequence in the way American was developing to become the strong nation it is.

Select the the true statements about Eisenhower.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

All these are true statements about President Dwight Eisenhower:

He desegregated the military.
He balanced the budget.
He cut military spending.
He warned of an arms race.
He initiated a network of multi-lane interstate highways linking cities.

The "Fair Deal" programs had been the agenda of President Harry Truman, so that's the one answer not to include in the list.

I'd like to add a word about Eisenhower's warning concerning an all-consuming arms race. His words, from his farewell speech as president, famously spoke of the "military-industrial complex."

Here's a small section of that speech, delivered in 1961:

The conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual -- is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.

We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.
