Answer:

this is the story my mom used to tell me.  

our skin in white.  and people even go to lengths to dye their skin an even lighter shade of white(the lighter your skin was the wealthier you were).  

But as times came rolling around and segregation ended and the modern era started, people stopped caring so much about having white white skin.  The natural tone was kind of yellow so people kind of used it is as a racist term.  

hope this helped

Answer:  The term yellow occasionally began to appear towards the end of the 18th century and then really took hold of the Western imagination in the 19th. But by the 17th century, the Chinese and Japanese were “darkening” in published texts, gradually losing their erstwhile whiteness when it became clear they would remain unwilling to participate in European systems of trade, religion, and international relations.

Explanation: The racist and cultural stereotypes of the Yellow Peril originated in the late 19th century, when Chinese workers (people of different skin-color, physiognomy, language and culture) legally immigrated to Australia, Canada, the U.S. and New Zealand, where their work ethic inadvertently provoked a racist backlash.

1. Discuss the Supreme Court’s decisions in Webster v. Reproductive Services (1989) and Casey v. Planned Parenthood (1992). A. H
kati45 [8]

<em>Webster v. Reproductive Services</em> was a Supreme Court case that upheld a Missouri law which placed restrictions of how state funds could be utilized for abortions. This case originated in Missouri. This case upheld restrictions that were viewed as unlikely in <em>Roe v. Wade</em>. In <em>Casey v. Planned Parenthood</em> is was ruled that the state can regulate abortions up to the point of fetal viability (the moment when a fetus could live outside of the womb). In <em>Roe, </em>the state could not regulate any aspect of the abortion process. While <em>Roe v. Wade</em> remains in force, these cases provide specific guidance as it relates to the role of the state in this process.
