History

Kaylis [27]4 years ago

The majority opinion in the case Plessy vs. Ferguson was written by Supreme Court justice Henry Brown. In this opinion, he wrote that the Jim Crow laws that segregated blacks and whites in society did not violate the 14th amendment.

 In his argument, he discussed how the 14th amendment and the equal protection clause were focused on creating legal equality. In this case, Plessy had the chance to sit in a rail car of equal quality. This helped to develop the concept of "separate but equal" which would be used in American society for the next 6 decades.

Los Incas, la civilización e imperio más importante de América del Sur cuando llegaron los españoles a América, era una sociedad
GrogVix [38]

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

A pesar de que no se anexan opciones o incisos para contestar la pregunta es la siguiente.

La respuesta correcta es "falso."

Es falso que los Incas, la civilización e imperio más importante de América del Sur cuando llegaron los españoles a América, era una sociedad altamente democratizada e, incluso, elegían mediante sufragio o votación universal al emperador o Zapa Inca.

Todo lo contrario, los Incas eran un Imperio, no una democracia ni nada que le le pereciera.

El Zapa Inca era dueño y amo absoluto del territorio Inca en los Andes de la región del Perú.. La creencia de los pobladores Incas es que este Zapa Inca era descendiente de Manco Cápac, fundador del imperio Inca con sede en Cuzco.

What happened to the camps created for the Civilian Conservation Corps during WWII
astra-53 [7]
Well the CCC gave lots of jobs to people during the depression, so during WWII, when Men were away at war, Women somewhat stepped into the Men's shoes at jobs such as in factories, this is also where we start to see the development of Rosie the Riveter, a tough factory woman; this painted a new image for woman as well, since before then their common spot was at home.
