The correct answer is: "civil rights and feminism".

Affirmative action consits on the implementation of policies which clearly benefit a specific social group, as a manner of compensating for previous discriminatory practices. Such actions have been adopted to ensure that women and black citizens are equally treated also in practice, after the enactment of inclusive laws.

For example of affirmative action would be the establishment of quotas in public schools when segregation was outlawed, so that reluctant schools were forced to accept a certain proportion of black students.

Although nixion May not have ordered the break in he did order a ?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:  a COVER-UP

Context/detail:

"Watergate" was the scandal in which persons working for President Nixon's reelection campaign committed crimes to spy on their opponents at Democratic party headquarters, and then efforts were made to cover up those crimes.  Nixon didn't directly order the break-ins and spying attempts, but he did order the cover-up of his administration's connections to those activities.

The first break-in attempt by burglars working on Nixon's behalf occurred  in May, 1972, as persons connected to the Nixon reelection campaign broke into the Democratic National Committee office in the Watergate complex of buildings in Washington, DC.  They were planting wire-taps on the Democrats' phone lines, and also stole copies of documents.  When the wire-taps didn't work properly, they broke in again (in June) to try to fix the surveillance devices, but they were caught.

Nixon's role in Watergate was especially in his efforts and those of members of his staff to cover up what had happened.  Ultimately, the Watergate affair brought down the Nixon presidency.  He resigned in order to avoid impeachment.  And the whole affair made Americans more distrusting of government.

Which founding father went to London in the 1780s in order to try and resolve problems leftover by the American Revolution
lana [24]

Answer:

John Adams.

Explanation:

Before being President, John Adams was a prominent American diplomat in Europe.

In 1778, Adams was sent to Paris to obtain support for the United States from the French. The following year, he returned to the United States to formulate his own constitution for the state of Massachusetts.  

In November 1779, Adams returned to Europe on a diplomatic mission and, together with John Jay and Benjamin Franklin, obtained the Treaty of Paris in 1783, which ended hostilities between the British and American settlements.

Adams also worked simultaneously in the Netherlands, where he negotiated a $ 2 million loan to the United States. The Dutch provinces recognized U.S. independence in April 1782, and Adams was received as the U.S. ambassador.

After the end of hostilities, Adams was appointed the first British ambassador to the United Kingdom in 1785. He held this position until 1788 and then returned to the United States.
