4) Jim Crow laws

Jim Crow laws were a series of restrictions that enforced racial segregation in the United States. They were enacted especially in the Southern States of America through almost a century, from 1877 to the beginning of the Civil Right Movement in the 1950s,

The statutes prohibited African American to attend and be in certain places where white people were, such as neighborhoods, restrooms, building entrances, elevators, cemeteries, amusement-park, cashier windows, churches, hospitals, jails, universities, etc.

In the speech, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is clearly talking about these laws, because though in theory the racial segregation was supposed to be "equal" for both races, in practice, the laws were never equal, black people never enjoyed the same benefits that white people enjoyed, and the laws put African American in a place of inferiority and made them uncomfortable.

How do you think people reacted to the new Constitution in 1787? Why would or wouldn’t they like it?
lisov135 [29]

Many people reacted in a good way to the new constitution, while some thought it gave too much power to the government. The Federalists supported the new constitution in 1787, while the Anti-Federalists primarily did not agree with it.

The Federalists were in support of a new constitution. They believed that the Articles of Confederation, which was the United States' first constitution, was too weak and the government needed more power. Under the Articles, the government could not tax citizens, properly create and enforce laws, regulate trade, and draft soldiers. The Federalists felt like this was weakening the country and they needed to amend it. While the Articles ended up getting scrapped altogether, the Federalists were in support of this and wanted to create a new constitution that gave more power to the federal government.

On the other hand, the Anti-Federalists favored the Articles of Confederation and did not want to amend it or create a new constitution. They associated the government having power with British tyranny and thought the power should be in the hands of the states and citizens. They opposed having a new constitution and were scared for their rights, this is why they demanded to have a Bill of Rights.

Latin questions!
bogdanovich [222]
1. Although it is not possible to say these things with absolute precision due to various sources, the general consensus is that he was born <span>in the village of </span>Andes<span>, near </span>Mantua<span>in, in </span><span>Cisalpine Gaul. It is assumed that he was born around 70 years Before Common Era and that he was born in a commoner family.

2. There is an inscription written on his tombstone and this inscription was supposedly written by the poet himself and talks about his life, where he was born, where he lived, and what his goal of writing was which was writing about leaders, countries, pastures and vivid areas, and similar things like that, it is a large inscription.

3. It is believed that Virgil wanted for the poem to be burned after his death. As the story goes, this was prevented by Augustus who believed that the epic poem was too important as a cultural and a historical thing to be erased in such a manner and that it should exist forever. Augustus believed the poem was a monument to Rome's glory.

4. He was in friendly terms with Augustus and many historians and chroniclers believe that it was actually Augustus who gave the idea of writing  the Aeneid to Virgil, and that he meddled in his creative process by providing new ideas and always reviewing what Virgil had written. As mentioned before, he published it posthumously as Virgil's.

5.  The Bucolics, also known as Eclogues, wanted to present to the people a part of Rome's history which was highly turbulent and filled with political tension and showed how life was changing for everyone. It was hist first work and made him a legend the instant he published it. It also showed life in rural areas as well as the life in Rome.

The Georgics were his second poem after the Bucolics and before the Aeneid. It was about agriculture, but what is interesting about it is that it was not just a simple and peaceful piece of rural poetry, but rather it was full of tension and numerous problems between people, both highborn and lowborn.</span>
