Answer:

<u>The admission of Kansas as a free state</u>

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1850 consisted of four major provisions that aimed at defusing political confrontations that have originated on the issue of whether to allow slavery in the U.S.'s new western land that Americans had acquired in the Mexican-American War.

Under the Compromise, a new Fugitive Slave Act was enacted to require citizens of free states to assist in capturing fugitive slaves or to face fines or imprisonment, California was admitted as a free state, Congress gave "popular sovereignty" to the territories of New Mexico and Utah to decide whether to allow slavery and slave trade was banned in Washington, DC, although slavery continued to be legal there.

However, Kansas was nowhere mentioned in the Compromise. It wasn't until the Kansas-Nebraska Act that this territory was organized under the principle of popular sovereignty that allowed white residents to decide whether to allow slavery.

Answer:

I believe and consider Nelson Mandela to be a hero because his ways of working things out was bringing himself and his people a better life. On the other hand, Augusto Pinochet, I consider him a villain because he was responsible for many tragedies, yet never really charged for them.

Background

Nelson Mandela was a South African activist, politician, anti-apartheid, and a philanthropist.

Born: July 18, 1918

Died: December 5, 2013

Augusto Pinochet was a Chilean dictator that took his power for granted and gave himself a bad history, although he didn't see it that way.

Born: November 25, 1915

Died: 2006

Contributions

Nelson Mandela taught his nation the real meaning of activism, showed his power for human spirit, brought Apartheid to an end, became first black president of South Africa, and remained devoted to the idea of peace and justice.

Augusto Pinochet, wasn't really a positive contributor. He violated the peoples' rights, ruined education for some, snatched job opportunies, canceled elections that were for good causes, illegally elected himself as president, and he was known for dividing rather than uniting.

Legacy

Nelson Mandela caused a positive impact around the world. He became a representation of an achievement with dedication to a good cause. He also brought peaceful protests and when needed, armed resistance.

Augusto Pinochet is remembered as a cold-hearted who tortured and murdered thousands of people. Murdered/disappeared more than 3,200 and tortured about 28,000. Chile's military today doesn't want to recognize him and political groups that favored him, now reject him and his family.

A Glimpse

Augusto Pinochet on the left

Mandela Arrested

His actions landed him in prison for 27 years. But, before he was senteced a lifetime, he was arrested many times.

Here is a short glimpse of Mandela walking out of prison.

Pinochet Haunted Chile

Here is a short video of Pinochet's life in power.

Conclusion

I chose Mandela as a hero because he is someone I've always been inspired by. He taught to stand up for good causes and remain devoted, until you achieve it.

I chose Pinochet as a villain because I believe he didn't have what it took to be a presisdent, he shouldn't have had any power whatsoever. He was resposible for thousands of deaths
