History

Paul [167]3 years ago

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

White is a metaphor for power." James Baldwin. Unfortunately so true in the history of the United States.

As we have witnessed the recent horrible events in different parts of the United States regarding race violence, we have to make a stop and truly reflect on the reasons for white supremacy in the country. Since colonial times, the race has been an issue. Even after the Civil War, the lesson was not learned and the nation was still divided. Too many things have happened over the years. But white dominance is still one of the US characteristics in society.

Some people thought that the arrival of Barak Obama to the US presidency would change things and that he could unite the nation but things got worse. The US continues to divide more. And with the new US President, the country is completely divided. So yes, white is still the dominant political and economical force in the United States.

How did the missouri compromise affect massachusetts?
stich3 [128]
Missouri Compromise admitted the zone of Maine, the northern locale of what was then Massachusetts, into the Union as a Free State. 
This was done to adjust the quantity of "slave states" and "free states." This happened because of a compromise about slavery in Missouri, and in the federal regions of the American west.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

On December 20, 1836, President Andrew Jackson presents Congress with a treaty he negotiated with the Ioway, Sacs, Sioux, Fox, Otoe and Omaha tribes of the Missouri territory. The treaty, which removed those tribes from their ancestral homelands to make way for white settlement, epitomized racist 19th century presidential policies toward Native Americans. The agreement was just one of nearly 400 treaties—nearly always unequal—that were concluded between various tribes and the U.S. government between 1788 and 1883.
