The robber Barons became rich by building monopolies. Option D is correct.

"Robber baron" is a derogatory metaphor of social criticism which was first refered to some late 19th-century American businessmen who were accused of using unscrupulous methods in their attempt to become wealthy, or expand their wealth.

The metaphor became popular as early as February 9, 1859, when The New York Times employed it to describe the business practices of Cornelius Vanderbilt.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

From roughly 1919 to 1935, the literary and artistic movement now known as the Harlem Renaissance produced an outpouring of celebrated works by Black artists and writers.

Relatively recent scholarship has emphasized not only the influence gay social networks had on the Harlem Renaissance’s development, but also the importance of sexual identity in more fully understanding a person’s work and creative process. Key LGBT figures of this period include, among others, poets Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, and Claude McKay; performers Ethel Waters, Edna Thomas, and Alberta Hunter; intellectual Alain Locke; literary salon owner Alexander Gumby; and sculptor Richmond Barthé.

This curated theme features a selection of literary salons, neighborhood institutions, public art, and residences that reflect the impact of the Black LGBT community on one of the 20th century’s most significant cultural movements.
