TRUE, the Gold Exchange Standard is a monetary system in which gold is taken out of the market and instead given notes or certificates(paper) as a type of currency/symbol that at any moment you could exchange for gold with the government, this system was abandoned by most nations by the 20th century, but most of them still keep gold as part of their guarantee and support to their national currency

True.

Monetary history shows us that at first the exchanges that were made by barter were replaced by precious metals. Over time, there was the introduction of paper money, which should necessarily be backed by some metal with government guarantee. If it were necessary, the paper money would be exchanged for the metal in it.

Nowadays, the concept of fiduciaridade of the currency has been agreed. This means that there is enough confidence in the Government that there is no need for mandatory conversion. Thus, the currency is backed by the trust that citizens have with their government.

how did strom thurmond and the dixiecrats use ideas of freedom to justify their positions on civil rights and race?

Lady bird [3.3K]

Strom Thurmond and the Dixiecrats used ideas of freedom to justify their positions on civil rights and race by advocating states' rights. Since the government at the time was giving minorities more rights, the Dixiecrats argued that the federal government should let the states be free to make their own individual policies. This would also let businesses be free to hire whomever they choose.

frosja888 [35]

Manifest Destiny was largely led and carried out by white americans seeking the westward expansion to increase the boundaries of the United States. African Americans were impact largely because as westward expansion continued new states were brought into the union with legalized slavery in places like Texas. This had an overall negative impact on African Americans by increasing the demand for slavery and expanding the institution of slavery westward. For the Native Americans Manifest Destiny was a major catastrophe leading to the ethnic cleansing and removal of Native Americans from their homes and lands. This removal often occurred with force with high rates of violence.
