During the last three decades of legal slavery in America, from the early 1830s to the end of the Civil War in 1865, African American writers perfected one of the nation’s first truly indigenous genres of written literature: the North American slave narrative. The genre achieves its most eloquent expression in Frederick Douglass’s 1845 Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: an American Slave<span> and Harriet Jacobs’s 1861 </span>Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl<span>. Like all slave narratives, Jacobs’s and Douglass’s works embody the tension between the conflicting motives that generated autobiographies of slave life. An ironic factor in the production of these accounts can be noted in the generic title “Fugitive Slave Narrative” often given to such works</span>

What is the primary reason to have three branches of government?

9966 [12]

I know that in the U.S.A. we have three branches of government. The legislative, judicial, and executive. I think the main reason why we have them is because we cant just have one person deciding the laws, it needs to be approved by many people. Congress can even pass a law if the president veto's it!

How did King Psammetichos of Egypt decide which languages, Egyptian or Phrygian, was the older? 40 points!!!

Keith_Richards [23]

The King Psammetichos of Egypt decided which languages, Egyptian or Phrygian, was the older by believing that a baby reared without exposure to language would speak the original language of man, the king commanded that two children be raised completely isolated from speech. One day, one of the children uttered a sound which sounded like "bekos." Because this sound happened to correspond to a word which meant "bread" in the Phrygian language, the king decided that Phrygian was older than Egyptian.

Why was neutrality a difficult policy for the United States to maintain?

Murrr4er [49]

Depending on the time period, America had a difficult time remaining neutral for several reasons.

World War I
America had a difficult time remaining neutral during World War I because of Germany's actions. For example, the German submarine sank the Lusitania, a boat that contained over 100 American citizens. Along with this, the Germans were also caught trying to make a secret alliance with Mexico. This was exposed when the Allied powers intercepted the Zimmerman Telegram. Considering these factors, the government felt the US had no choice but to break their neutrality and enter World War I.

World War II
The US had a difficult time maintaining neutral in World War II due to the violence and rise of dictators like Hitler. Along with this, the US was also attacked by the Japanese military. The Japanese military bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. This attack on a military base prompted the US to break their policy of neutrality in order to enter World War II.
