What is the federalist papers supported the passage of the u.S. Constitution ?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Federalist Papers to help people to understand the US Constitution.

Explanation:

There are 85 essays in Federalist Papers which were printed in New York newspapers while New York State was deciding whether or not to support the U.S. Constitution. These are a series of eighty-five letters written to newspapers in 1787-1788 by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay, urging ratification of the Constitution Other newspapers outside New York also published the essays as other states were deciding to ratify the Constitution. In 1788, the papers were published together in a book called The Federalist.  As of today, the people still read the Federalist Papers to help them understand the Constitution.

Hamilton, who wrote about two-thirds of the essays has addressed the objections of opponents, who feared a tyrannical central government that would supersede states’ rights and encroach on individual liberties. All strong nationalists, the essayists argued that, most important, the proposed system would preserve the Union, now in danger of breaking apart, and empower the federal government to act firmly and coherently in the national interest. Conflicting economic and political interests would be reconciled through a representative Congress, whose legislation would be subject to presidential veto and judicial review.

When the price of a capital good increases, what happens to the prices of related consumer goods and services? Why?
valkas [14]
<span>The correct answer is that the consumer goods increase in price too. A capital good would be something like flour and the consumer good would be something like bread. If the price of flour jumps up, so does the price of bread. Governments sometime regulate this to protect the citizen by putting a limit so the price doesn't grow, but it pays for the rest to the baker.</span>

What if there had been no Ancient Greek Civilization how would history be
Charra [1.4K]

If there had been no Ancient Greek civilization we'd be behind in literature, art, technology, science and much more. The Greek gave the world new ideas and an individual right in self government. The world right now would probably be in the 1619 A.D not 2019 A.D.

What message about modern America is Miranda sending by having only people of color play the roles of the white founding fathers
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

  • <em>He sent a message that blacks also are humans. they can do things white's can do!</em>
  • <em>It's like the opposite now, because there were mostly white now there are mostly people of color.</em>
  • <em>Having all the actors be people of color sends the message that America's strength is </em><u><em>of color.</em></u><em> </em>

Explanation:

  • <em>Miranda is familiar with racial dynamics when it comes to the world of theater.  He was born in New York, but his family is from Puerto Rico and Mexico. At some point, Miranda started writing his own work just to carve out a lane for himself.  “I was in college, and I realized I didn’t dance well enough to play Paul in ‘A Chorus Line’ nor Bernardo, and if you’re a Puerto Rican dude, that’s what you get,” Miranda said. “So I began writing ‘In the Heights’ because I wanted a life in this business.”  But back to “Hamilton.” </em><em>In other words, He sent a message that blacks are also humans. they can do things white's can do!</em>
  • <em>Most Americans (65%) – including majorities across racial and ethnic groups – say it has become more common for people to express racist or racially insensitive views since Trump was elected president. A smaller but substantial share (45%) says this has become more acceptable. </em><em>It's like the opposite now, because there were mostly white now there are mostly people of color.</em>
  • <em>The racial stereotypes of early American history had a significant role in shaping attitudes toward African-Americans during that time. Images of the Sambo, Jim Crow, the Savage, Mammy, Aunt Jemimah, Sapphire, and Jezebelle may not be as powerful today, yet they are still alive. </em><em>Having all the actors be people of color sends the message that America's strength is </em><u><em>of color.</em></u><em> </em>
