The Civil Rights movement was the movement spearheaded by African-Americans during the 1960’s. The goal of this movement was to gain political, economic, and social equality in American society. African Americans were constantly mistreated in US society and denied basic rights like the right to vote. These laws resulted in unequal opportunities for African Americans.

Which of the following best describes the Oregon Donation Land Act of 1850?
harkovskaia [24]
I believe the correct answer is the second option - it gave land to individuals or a married couple willing to live on it and work on it.
According to this Act, these people would get land free of charge, but it wouldn't be officially theirs until they have lived and worked on it for four years at least. The Act said nothing about the crops, charities, or Native Americans - it was an effort to bring more settlers into Oregon.

What problems did women and children face during the industrial era
Anon25 [30]

<em>Women-</em>Although most women worked in textile factories, which were less dangerous than jobs such as coal mining and other new industrial positions, even textile factories were overcrowded and unsafe. Tragedies such as the Triangle shirtwaist factory fire, in which 129 women and 17 men died, happened because of unsafe conditions and policies such as keeping outer doors locked to prevent theft. Woman were paid less than men.

<em> Children-</em> Working caused many children to be estranged from their families and sent to workplaces in which they were considered merely a cheap source of labor. Children had to work in very dangerous conditions, performing jobs that took advantage of their small size. As a result, some developed lung diseases such as pneumonia and bronchitis in mills with poor ventilation, while others developed back problems, and some even became paralyzed, when working in coal mines.

What is the legacy of Judaism
NeX [460]
1) The Jews' monotheistic religious tradition shaped the Western beliefs about God. 
2) The 7-day week, including a day of rest for everyone. 
3) The concept of morality was also the work of the Hebrews, including the dignity and value of a person. Under Israelite law, everyone had recourse to the courts. A child, widow, wife, etc., could initiate legal action against any citizen to redress perpetrated harm. Compare this to those societies in which only mature, land-owning males had rights. 
Also: 
4) Parents are responsible for teaching children. Illiteracy among Israelites, in every generation, was rare. 
5) Infants are to be protected and cared for, whether or not they turned out to be the gender you were hoping for. 
<span>6) Cruelty to animals is not acceptable. </span>
