Answer:

Thomas Jefferson, a man of great contradictions. He was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States but he was the owner of slaves.

One question would be:  Are really all humans equal by nature? Men´s natural-born rights of life, freedom were only applicable to white people and not to black slaves.

Second question: Can you hold that men can improve their destiny by their own actions but keep slaves who are deprived of the realization of their own will at the same time?

NeTakaya
President Kennedy, in those words from his inaugural speech in 1961, wanted to urge Americans toward public service and global service.  Kennedy was instrumental in establishing the Peace Corps, which was put into place not long after his inauguration (already in March, 1961).  The Peace Corps enlisted Americans as volunteers to give their time to serving underdeveloped nations in the world.

Which statement BEST describe an effect of the British policy of salutary neglect
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Salutary neglect was the unofficial British policy that was started by prime minister Robert Walpole. It was meant to relax the strict regulations and trade laws imposed on American colonies. The main idea behind this policy was that by loosening their grip on the colonies they could focus on European affairs. This policy helped the colonies to prosper by trading with other countries and spending the wealth on British goods and at the same time selling the raw materials to the Britain. The downside of the policy for the British was that this allowed the colonies to grow independently and forming American Identity.
