The correct answer is B. Equal Rights Amendment
The National Organization for Women, founded in 1966, fully supported the Equal Rights amendment. They fought hard to have this law passed during the 1960s and 1970s without success.
Prohibition happened several decades before the NOW was founded and they never approved of Congressional pay raises.
They prevented African Americans from becoming farmers. They prevented the migration of emancipated slaves. They promoted peaceful co-existence between blacks and whites. The effect of Jim Crow laws have on Southern society is: They created a racially segregated society.
In the 1890s, Cuba wanted to get their freedom from Spain. People like Jose Marti petitioned Americans to side with the Cubans and the poor treatment they were receiving from Spain. Also, there was a lot of support in the newspapers called "yellow journalism" where American people were sympathizing with the cause to go against Spain in war. This especially was true with a man nicknamed "The Butcher", Valeriano Weyler, who was a military leader from Spain placed in Cuba to put people in concentration camps.
As a result, America felt a strong sense of patriotism and business reasons to go to war with Spain. After the <em>USS Maine</em> exploded, the United States declared war on Spain.
A similar situation happened in the Philippines, where Spain had a high influence and America did want to free the Philippines from Spain, but then also had their own agenda to take over the Philippines, as it was in a strategic location in the Pacific for trade.
Answer:
(1) Executive power of "necessary and proper"--Lincoln was able to legislate from the Oval by use of executive order and in this case as Commander in Chief of the army. Lincoln used the Emancipation Proclamation as a means to control the message of the Civil War, boost morale, and target the Southern labor force.
(2) President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, as the country moved toward its third year of the wicked common war. The announcement proclaimed "that all people held as slaves" inside the defiant states are, and henceforward might be free."
(3) Lincoln recognized that the Emancipation Proclamation would have to be followed by a constitutional amendment in order to guarantee the abolishment of slavery. The 13th amendment was passed at the end of the Civil War before the Southern states had been restored to the Union and should have easily passed the Congress.
(4) On September 22, 1862, Lincoln announced publicly that he would issue the Emancipation Proclamation as encouraged by the Union victory at Antietam. Emancipation Proclamation is a decree freeing all enslaved persons after January 1, 1863, in the states still in rebellion. Enslaved African Americans were freed by the Proclamation only in the states which had war with the Union. It did not free slaves in the border states. The proclamation changed the dispute over preserving the Union into a war of liberation.
Hope this helps you :) =)
