Answer:

A minstrel show character.

Explanation:

The Jim Crow laws were a number of state and local laws that the colonies in some parts of the American nation introduced. Though the Constitution of the country had already established the abolishing of slavery, the Southern states dominated by white supremacists brought forth the new laws that legalized the racial segregation of the people.

The origin of the name came from a white actor Thomas D. Rice's "blackface" character of Jim Crow in "Jump Jim Crow". Rice's character was used as a form of satirizing the populist police of Andrew Jackson. With the popularity of the character of "Jim Crow", the phrase began to represent the "negro" people.

What would happen to the idea of peaceful co-existence as a result of this crisis?
Tamiku [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not mention what crisis you are referring to.

Without that information, we do not know what you are talking about.

However, trying to help, we can assume you are talking about the Cold War crisis because it was the Soviet Union that coined that phrase after the Cold War years.

So if that is teh case, what would happen to the idea of peaceful co-existence as a result of this crisis was that the two world superpowers of that time -the Soviet Union and the United States- had to learn to live in relative coexistence and "peace," after so many years of competing in the arms race, the space race, and the spread-containment of Communism around the world.

These countries had to learn how to coexists, more for necessity, rather than conviction.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Genghis Khan was ruthless and very efficient when conducting scare tactics. His army was on horses, nimble and ready to surprise attack with swift strikes and to launch a hail of arrows while on the move. But most importantly he would not wage war just with soldiers but would also take hostages, torture and kill women and children and a lot more to scare his enemies into submission without too much fighting.
