What 3 words provided the legal basis for segregation in America

History
1 answer:
Bogdan [553]3 years ago
5 0
"Separate but equal" are the three words that stood as the legal basis for segregation in America. This concept was established in the Supreme Court case Plessy vs. Ferguson in 1896. This case ruled that having "separate but equal" facilities was not a violation of the 14th amendment. This ruling changed American society for the next 6 decades. Public schools and transportation remained segregated. It was not until the Brown vs. Board of Education case overruled this concept and deemed "separate but equal" unconstitutional.

What advantages did the Haitian slaves have over the French soldiers?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The colonization period in Haiti was difficult, one of the hardest ones in all the Americas, the slavery was cataloged as the cruelest ever known, and the general live conditions for middle and lower classes were not good at all.

At the bottom of the social pyramid were the slaves, however the french soldiers had really hard duties on those times, they can be cataloged like <em>¨White slaves¨</em>, obviously they haven´t to perform the slave´s work, however duties turning around the slavery, extended shifts and dreadful life conditions made their work a difficult one.

So Haitian Slaves and French soldiers were technically in a similar spot, however, the slaves had survival and another kind of advantages over the French soldiers, a key point was the resistance or partial immunity to different diseases, unfortunately, that wasn´t the French´s case.

Yellow fever was a major issue to the French forces in Haiti, debilitated the army, and was one of the key points of the posterior events (the slavery and Haiti revolutions).

So definitely the two kinds of newcomers to Haiti, haven´t the same fate, the majority of slaves adapted quickly to new territory. the opposite happened to the French soldiers.

Based on the map, what was an effect of the regional economic structure? (APUSH E2020)
kherson [118]

Answer: B. Industrialization spread in the south

Explanation:

Operating spindles were a mark of industrialization in 1840 and from the map we see that New England had a lot of operating spindles which means that they were more industrial and less agrarian so option A is wrong.

Option B is most likely correct because you can see from the map that operating spindles are in smaller quantities in the South which could mean that they were only being introduced there at the time.

Option C cannot be inferred from the map.

The map show News England having more spindles than the South so the South is not richer than New England.
