Answer is 10%. 

About 270 million acres of public land was given away for free to Homesteaders, people seeking to settle out west under the Homestead Act. This constituted about 10% of the US. The first of the acts was passed in 1862, and the second in 1866.

What examples of resistance &amp; resilience to racism did you learn about immigration<br> ?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer: The challenges of immigration are, more often than not, negotiated in the context of the family (Carranza 2001). Therefore, research in family studies needs to encompass the family as a unit of analysis as well as the patterns of resistance that family members develop in order to bounce back in an unwelcoming environment.

Explanation:  A purposive sample was chosen in order to provide some diversity to the range of the accounts regarding mother–daughter negotiation. The purposive sample provided richness along many dimensions such as socio-economic-political religious affiliations, migration paths, etc. The sample design was fairly complex involving two sets of participants. Each of the two sets included mothers and their daughters. Participants in these sets were interviewed individually.These two sets were: (i) The Mother–Adolescent

Daughter Set which included Salvadorian immigrant mothers and at least one of their adolescent daughters between the ages of 15 and 17 years who were born in Canada or abroad; and (ii) The Mother–Adult Daughter Set which included Salvadorian immigrant mothers and at least one of their adult daughters between the ages of 19 and 30 years who grew up in Canada or arrived before becoming an adolescent. Mothers and daughters in these two groups were interviewed individually because ‘in-depth interviews provided the possibility to learn to see the world from the eyes of the person being interviewed’ (Ely 1991, p. 58). These in-depth conversations allowed obtaining information about the participants’ individual perceptions regarding their positioning as they settled into Canadian context.

Semenov [28]

Answer:

O D. God would defend the American colonists' fight because their cause was upright.

Explanation:

Thomas Paine's "The Crisis Number One" is a political statement about his support for the American people's desire and the act of revolting against the British empire. In it, he argues for the need to get independence and that it is the right thing to do for the American people.

Moreover, Paine continues to present an accusatory claim towards Britain and its king, <em>"I cannot see on what grounds the king of Britain can look up to heaven for help against us: a common murderer, a highwayman, or a house-breaker, has as good a pretence as he."</em> To Paine, it seemed like God will not even want to side with the British because of their desire to be violent while the US <em>"have so earnestly and so repeatedly sought to avoid the calamities of war, by every decent method which wisdom could invent."</em>

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
