Which of these statements would Winston Churchill most likely agree with?

pshichka [43]

The correct answer is Victory must be attained at all costs.

Churchill was arrested and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp in Pretoria, where he fled, walking 500km and insisted on staying in Africa, participating in several battles. This story made him a national hero when he returned in 1900.

He entered parliament in the same year, supported by the conservative party.

He married Clementine, and together they had 5 children.

In 1911, he took over as First Lord of the Admiralty, a highly prestigious position in the British Navy and in this post, during the First World War he was responsible for the disastrous Gallipoli and Dardanelles campaign. Received on the peninsula by well-prepared Ottomans, the offensive resulted in the death of 50,000 British and French. Churchill was fired from his position at the Admiralty.

After the Russian Communist Revolution, Churchill was an active voice against the expansion of communism in Europe.

He lived a political decline in the 1920s and 1930s, experiencing relative political isolation, dedicating himself to reading and writing. Winston is the only British prime minister to receive a Nobel Prize for literature.

From 1933, during Hitler's rise to Germany, Churchill raised his voice against what he considered a serious threat.

He was constantly going public, suggesting English rearmament and preparation for an inevitable conflict. He criticized the government for its passivity in the face of Hitler's demands.

In 1939, England declared war on Germany after the Nazis invaded Poland. At the same moment Churchill takes over the Admiralty again, in the same position he had been years before.

In 1940, in the middle of a German invasion of France, Winston Churchill was appointed Prime Minister. His inaugural speech was simple: "I have nothing to offer, other than blood, suffering, tears and sweat."

What were the Federalist Papers and who wrote them?A Cabinet secretary is someone who _______.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Federalist Papers were written and published to urge New Yorkers to ratify the proposed United States Constitution, which was drafted in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787. In lobbying for adoption of the Constitution over the existing Articles of Confederation, the essays explain particular provisions of the Constitution in detail. For this reason, and because Hamilton and Madison were each members of the Constitutional Convention, the Federalist Papers are often used today to help interpret the intentions of those drafting the Constitution.

Why was racism so big during colonial era and the Age of Reason?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Racism in the United States has existed since the colonial era, when white Americans were given legally or socially sanctioned privileges and rights while these same rights were denied to other races and minorities. European Americans — particularly affluent white Anglo-Saxon Protestants — enjoyed exclusive privileges in matters of education, immigration, voting rights, citizenship, land acquisition, and criminal procedure throughout American history. Non-Protestant immigrants from Europe, particularly Irish people, Poles, and Italians, often suffered xenophobic exclusion and other forms of ethnicity-based discrimination in American society until the late 19th century and early 20th century. In addition, groups like Jews and Arabs have faced continuous discrimination in the United States, and as a result, some people who belong to these groups do not identify as white. East, South, and Southeast Asians have similarly faced racism in America.

Major racially and ethnically structured institutions include slavery, segregation, Native American reservations, Native American boarding schools, immigration and naturalization laws, and internment camps. Formal racial discrimination was largely banned in the mid-20th century and it came to be perceived as being socially and morally unacceptable. Racial politics remains a major phenomenon, and racism continues to be reflected in socioeconomic inequality. Racial stratification continues to occur in employment, housing, education, lending, and government.

In the view of the United Nations and the U.S. Human Rights Network, "discrimination in the United States permeates all aspects of life and extends to all communities of color." While the nature of the views held by average Americans has changed significantly over the past several decades, surveys by organizations such as ABC News have found that even in modern America, large sections of Americans admit to holding discriminatory viewpoints. For example, a 2007 article by ABC stated that about one in ten admitted to holding prejudices against Hispanic and Latino Americans and about one in four did so regarding Arab-Americans. A 2018 YouGov/Economist poll found that 17% of Americans oppose interracial marriage, with 19% of members of "other" ethnic groups, 18% of blacks, 17% of whites, and 15% of Hispanics opposing it.
