History

Answer:

It increased the slave population

Explanation:

The reason is because the cotton gin produced so much more cotton, the slave owners wanted more production with the gin which meant more slaves are needed to operate the gins.

Answer:

Without the cotton gin, slaves had to hand-pick the seeds from cotton one-by-one, and it was a lengthy process. But with the cotton gin, they were able to produce the cotton a lot faster.

This caused slave-owners to get more slaves since the cotton gin could produce so quickly with great effort and result.

Describe the response of the political power structure of the deep south to the brown v. board of education and brown ii rulings
vazorg [7]
The Brown vs. Board ruling stated "separate but equal" schools were inherently unequal. In Brown II, the court ruled that states must do this with "all deliberate speed."

Even though this was the case, many southern politicians tried to stop desegregation. A perfect example would be the Little Rock 9. This group of nine African-American citizens tried to enter Central High School, a previously all white school. When they were about to enter for their first day, the Arkansas National Guard refused to allow them enter the school.This was one way in which state governments tried to prevent desegregation.

 In response to this, President Eisenhower sent in the National Guard to escort the Little Rock 9 into Central High School.

Why was thomas hutchinson a loyalist
Art [367]

Answer:

Hope I could help xxxxx ;P

Explanation:

Thomas Hutchinson was the last royal governor of Massachusetts Bay, a prominent loyalist, and a noted historian, both of his colony and his times. A native Bostonian, born September 9, 1711 to a wealthy merchant family, Hutchinson was, like many of his future political opponents, educated at Harvard University. In 1737 he was elected to the Massachusetts assembly, of which he was Speaker from 1746 to 1748. His support for an unpopular measure to redeem the colony's depreciated paper currency led to his defeat for re-election in 1749. He was then appointed to the Governor's Council and served as a delegate to the Albany Congress of 1754, where he joined Benjamin Franklin in drawing up a plan of American union. Hutchinson was made lieutenant governor of the province in 1758 and chief justice in 1760, offices he held simultaneously, much to the chagrin of Boston radicals such as James Otis (who believed he had been promised the latter post).
