Why did people come to America for religious reasons ?

History
1 answer:
Elena L [17]3 years ago
5 0

Colonies such as Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Maryland were settled primarily by people seeking religious freedom. Pilgrim Separatists desired a break from the Church of England, and arrived in Massachusetts aboard the Mayflower in 1620. Later, a different religious sect, the Puritans, arrived in Massachusetts fleeing persecution in England. Unlike the Separatists, the Puritans did not want to break from the Church of England; they wanted to "purify" it. This was met with opposition -- including violence -- and by 1630 nearly 20,000 Puritans fled to Massachusetts. Colonies such as Maryland were founded as a refuge for other persecuted religious groups. English persecution -- like a ban on a Catholic priest officiating a marriage of two Catholics -- prompted many to come to Maryland. Lord Baltimore founded Maryland as a Catholic refuge in 1632.

rewona [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you did not attach the options to answer this question. You also forgot to mention what time in US history you are referring to.

Without options, the are many possibilities to answer the question.

That is why we are going to answer based on our knowledge of the topic.

We are going to assume you are referring to the Pop culture of the 1950s and 1960s.

American’s were obsessed with two types of entertainment during this time which was television and rock and roll music..

During those decades, the American people, especially the young Americans were fascinated with rock and roll music brought to the massive scene by African American musicians such as Little Richard, and Chuck Berry, and Mexican-American Richie Valens, or Texan Buddy Holly, and many more.

Television was the other form of entertainment that caught the total attention of the American people. We could say that in those years, television was a key part of the American culture, and companies aimed their advertising efforts to TV commercials.

It was primarily "the recognition of treaty rights" and "Native American self-government" that prompted the Native American Civil Rights Movement, since many Natives were not being respected at all by the US government.
