The reason why someone might argue that the federal government played a key role in making African Americans second class citizens is that, the federal government is the one who decided the rights of the African Americans like not allowing them to vote, and permitting slavery and segregation.

The Federal government itself supported segregationists principles in civil and military service for a long time (It was only in 1948 that Truman desegregated the armed forces). Much Federal legislation explicitly excluded coverage of types of jobs that were filled by blacks. This pushed African Americans to become “second class citizens. Segregation was a national problem and the Federal government failed to fight it for a long time.

Which of the following is the best definition for The Rule of Thirds? The placement of sentences into three parts. The placement
zhannawk [14.2K]
The rule of thirds is a "rule of thumb" or guideline which applies to the process of composing visual images such as designs, films, paintings, and photographs. The guideline proposes that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally spaced horizontal lines and two equally spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections. Proponents of the technique claim that aligning a subject with these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition than simply centering the subject.

The photograph to the right demonstrates the application of the rule of thirds. The horizon sits at the horizontal line dividing the lower third of the photo from the upper two-thirds. The tree sits at the intersection of two lines, sometimes called a power point or a crash point. Points of interest in the photo do not have to actually touch one of these lines to take advantage of the rule of thirds. For example, the brightest part of the sky near the horizon where the sun recently set does not fall directly on one of the lines, but does fall near the intersection of two of the lines, close enough to take advantage of the rule

sveta [45]
One argument was that if the U.S. solely did a "test demonstration" of the atomic bomb, versus dropping it immediately on Japan, Japan would see the devastation of the bomb and would surrender on their own will without suffering huge losses.

This act by the United States resulted in Japan attacking Pearl Harbor.
tester [92]

Answer:

Oil embargo.

Explanation:

The events that led Japan to launch an attack at the United States base at Pearl Harbor were not just because of a single cause. It was a number of events that had accumulated and exploded after the US decided to ban all oil exports to foreign nations.

Japan had been slowly expanding its authority to nations including China. The increase in Japan's power led the US to embargo all oil exports which left Japan with a minimal oil resource. This prompted the Japanese nation to attack the US base at Pearl Harbor.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
