What is the paradox as related to slavery in the United States?

Hey there!

The answer is A. That slavery was still allowed in a free nation.

One of the things the colonists fought for was freedom. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of the press along with other things.

However, for hundreds of thousands of slaves torn away from their homes, they had none of these freedoms. They were considered inferior and not people.

A paradox is a statement that seems absurd of self-contradictory, which this statement very much is. If the U.S. is a free nation, then why do hundreds of thousands of people living there have no freedoms, stolen from them by the very people who advocated for their own freedom?

Hope this helps!

What should participants do as a group to prepare for a formal discussion? Check all that apply. find evidence establish rules set clear goals develop opinions make digital notes select a secretary

Answer:

Imagine that you have a rare weekend without any professional responsibilities: no papers to grade, no lessons to plan, no activities to cover. To take advantage of this unexpected free time, you and three friends decide to go on a fishing excursion to a lake known as one of the best largemouth bass habitats in the eastern United States. Through e-mail messages, telephone conversations, and brief get-togethers, the four of you coordinate transportation, lodging, the time of departure, and other details.

It would seem reasonable to assume that you were all going with ambitions to catch largemouth bass. However, what would happen to the trip's camaraderie and outcome if each person's vision of the weekend differed from that assumption? What if one person plans to spot eagles, another is looking for lakefront property, and a third hopes to catch anything that will pull on the line, while you are there for sun and leisure?

Hope this helps!

Reptile [31]

<u>The role the decision-making process plays in the activities of a political party:</u>

The political way to deal with basic leadership takes what the judicious and down to earth models forgot about and places that any authoritative action is a political and ideological action. The procedure of levelheaded basic leadership favors rationale, objectivity, and examination over subjectivity and understanding.

"Rational" in this setting doesn't mean normal or composed as it does in the conversational sense. By winning gathering assignments through essential races, extremists or change applicants can work inside the gatherings to access the general political decision voting form and in this manner improve their odds of general political decision triumphs without hosting to sort out third gatherings.  

A few components which the model uses to the role the decision-making process are:  

  • Encountering the circumstance.  
  • Examining the circumstance.  
  • Time constraints.
  • Executing the choice.  
  • Choice Quality  
  • Subordinate responsibility.

Answer:They attacked African Americans because they were now upset that they didn't have anyone to work on their farm or take care of their crops. They attacked their allies because those allies gave African American ''human rights''  and as far as the Ku Klux Klan was concerned African Americans were  not human at all.
