Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Equality was not a focus of public schools in the late 1800s, the major evidence of that is that during that period African Americans had to attend to African American colleges, this way, segregation was evident.

The main focus of public schools in that period was literacy, teach the ability to read and write to children. This was a part of the Education Reform Movement.

How is cultural exchange a part of globalization
pickupchik [31]

cultural exchange is the act of sharing ones culture with another to improve understanding and making new friendships. This can help in globalization because a country can have a great influence on other countries if they have an alliance with other countries. The exchange of cultures can be beneficial to the world because it can lead to the booming of very profitable businesses such as google and Microsoft and Sony. Without cultural exchange there also wouldn't be any peace because without that understanding between countries this can lead to tensions between them because no country knows what the other is gonna do. All in all culural exchange is mandatory to promote peace and prosperity between nations.

How is this question for New Mexico History contreversal? Which group has been most successful at building political power since
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

I guess this is Just my opinionated answer but its all I could think of- the reason that the question is controversial is all of the subjects within the question are still to this day considered below the average white man. and each and every one of those subjects have fought to get to the amount of power they have today almost equally, and 10x harder than the average white man. ill explain:

Explanation:

women: woman got the right to vote in 1920- this is the 19th amendment to the U.S constitution- it took 19 amendments for a woman in this country to have a voice. before that- woman could barely breathe in public without being burned at the stake (AHEM: salem witch trials) and women still to this day arent taken seriously- we just got our 1st female vice president Kamala Harris- and the bitter (primarily white men) make it a point to say that women should not be in a position of power- and if they are THEY DEFINITELY SLEPT WITH THEIR BOSS. but let a woman attack a mans ego and he dams all women

Natives: well lets just start with the fact that THE COLONIZERS stole the land that was originally owned by natives- they were kinda there first . and then the FACT that the British turned around and KILLED every native they came in contact with. and then the natives had to deal with IMPERIALISM which was basically forcing the white mans ways on any other race, culture, religeon, or ethnicity- because the white man concidered it uncivilized to be different.

chicanos: mexican american war: mexico used to own California, new Mexico, arizona, and texas but one of the previous presidents sold them to the US to avoid a boarder war. - well guess what that didnt stop very much. because yes 1,000s of immigrants are legally (and illegally) crossing the boarder into a new life- but racism is everywhere and latin American people were even forced to pick grapes at 1 point.

african American: SLAVERY, the civil rights movement, police brutality, these are just some of the things they had to face- and still have to today. and they continue to fight for the rights that others are just born with.

so the progress, the success- in general- id say is about the same- speaking about how hard the history (and present day) was and is for all of these subjects. that in its self is how i believe that the question is controversial

(excuse the long explanation)

Volgvan

There was a 20% chance that you would be employed as a prostitute if you were a woman in the "Old American West”.  

In the Old American West, the mining population was composed of 95% young and male people so a high demand during that time was female companionship. Saloons also doubled as a brothel during this time.
