What does the separation of powers ensure?

1 answer:

3 0

The separation of powers was the first step to limiting power for one branch. The US built up their government based on the British, in which they had their version of Parliament, called Congress, the Federal Judge, or supreme court judge (as well as others, but we are focusing on the supreme court), as well as the executive branch, which is the President.

The next step was "checks and balances", which ensured that no one branch can be too powerful. The US president can veto Congress's legislation, Congress can override the veto, they can also impeach the president. The Supreme Court can rule laws unconstitutional, and change the laws based on what they think is constitutional.

What new opportunities did the 1920s do for women and African Americans? What new limitations did this era impose?

Gnesinka [82]

The 1920's resulted in a change in opportunities for women and African Americans. During the 1920's, African American men and women became known for their musical and artistics talents thanks to the Harlem Renaissance. This era was considered a revival of black culture and saw the development of talents like Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong. The popularity of jazz music allowed men like this to become famous on a national scale.

Along with this, women started to challenge traditional social norms. Instead of being seen strictly a housewife, women (especially flappers) were outgoing, went to speakeasies, and did things that were usually only done by men before this time.
