History
1 answer:
iris [78.8K]3 years ago
5 0
The colonies were not unified and did not have a governing body that could organize their possible fight for independence or represent them with other nations. They needed a governing body that would protect all the colonies equally and represent all colonies equally. It started with the idea of the articles of confederation but eventually became the constitution.

<em>Because of this mistaken belief, Young put roadblocks in his own path. However, he had laid a solid groundwork for others in their attempts to decipher the hieroglyphs.</em> Based on this excerpt James Cross Giblin believes Young made valuable contributions to future researchers’ attempts to decipher the hieroglyphs. He explicitly says that he <em>laid solid groundwork </em>meaning his contributions paved the way for the ones coming behind.

(mc) what path did booker t. washington recommend that african americans take to achieve racial equality?
makkiz [27]
Booker t Washington was a big believer that education would be the source of social mobility and a means to acquire power in American society. He believed that if a large amount of the black population could become educated (and keep in mind a majority of the black population was illiterate at the time) they would rise to power in society and become respected as equals in American society. This was in contrast to his contemporaries who believed that political demonstrations, protests and other ways of "fighting" for social and political power were more effective. Booker T Washington was also a career educator and founded the Tuskegee Institute which was one of the first historically black colleges, and is still educating students to this day.
