Discuss the role of Hollywood in teaching, or "misteaching" American history.

History
1 answer:
Pepsi [2]3 years ago
7 0

Many people rely on movies to learn about historical events, but what they're not really taking into account is that Hollywood's main purpose is to generate blockbusters and revenue.

Firstly, one problem that "historical" movies have is that they're not usually accurate and there's fiction mixed with reality.

Also, many movies can be biased regarding some specific events that happened in the past, so people who watch those movies don't get to see what really happened, they just see a biased version of it.

There are stereotypical depictions in movies that are not completely true, for example cowboys or immigrants.

So, only watching movies to learn about events that happened in the past is not enough bacause dates and places could be wrong, there could be biased movies and sometimes fiction exaggerates the role or identity of historical figures. Movies should be watched as entertainment and to have a good time.

Cómo se recaudaba el tributo de la nueva España?
Anarel [89]

La respuesta correcta a esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

El tributo en la Nueva España se pagaba de la siguiente manera. Los Españoles cobraban el tributo a los indígenas que explotaban en el sistema conocido como la "Encomienda." Los dueños de las tierras o terratenientes usaban a los indígenas como trabajadores y los hacían trabajar a marchas forzadas. Más bien, los explotaban. A cambio, los dueños les daban cobijo y alimento. Los indios pagaban con trabajo y lo Españoles los explotaban.

Más adelante, otra forma de pagar tributo además del trabajo, era con mercancía o posesiones como animales o semillas. Tiempo después fue que se empezó a utilizar el uso de monedas de oro o de plata.

The answer is not the last one so you have to pick another one

One difference between the House of Representatives and the Senate is that the Senate allows unlimited discussion of bills, the house has stricter rules.

<h3>How are Senate and the House of Representatives different?</h3>

Senate is set up such that there can be an unlimited discussion of bills by senators. This means that senators can speak for however period of time they want to regarding a bill.

This allows them to use this as a tactic to delay bills being passed. When senators do this, the process is called a filibuster.

The House of Representatives does not allow for this however, and there are stricter rules on regarding how long a person can discuss a bill which eliminates the chance of a filibuster.

In conclusion, option A  the Senate allows unlimited discussion of bills, the house has stricter rules is correct.
