History
1 answer:
Semmy [17]3 years ago
7 0
In the book he wrote, Equiano displayed his belief that free blacks often suffered worse conditions than slaves. In the W<span>est Indies, he met a free black </span>man<span> whose name was Joseph </span>Clipson<span>. </span>Clipson's<span> story was the basis of his realization. </span>Clipson<span> had freedom but was aggressively spoken to by a Bermuda captain who insisted that </span>Clipson<span> was a slave and that he had to take him to Jamaica. </span>Clipson protested but he was ignored and was forced to go aboard the captain's ship. Equiano wrote on his book that he had thought only slavery was dreadful, but the condition of a free negro was just as equally so. Their freedom was minimal and they lived in fear of constant abuses. There were no courts to listen to them and no law would protect their properties. When Equiano became a free black, he also encountered the same situation. Free blacks lived in an uncertain middle ground between slavery and freedom.<span> </span>

In what way did United States government promote conservation of our resources during the war in order to have enough supplies f
Wittaler [7]
The correct answer is "The government required rationing and encouraged growing of victory gardens."

The United States Food Administration was the federal agency in charge of rationing food and creating propaganda to encourage citizens to preserve food. This included cutting down on the amount of bread citizens ate on a weekly basis.

Along with this, the planting of victory gardens allowed for increased agricultural output. This meant more food that could be sent to the troops.
