The Supreme Court case Texas vs. Johnson established the freedom of speech can apply to more than just words. For example, in this case, the Supreme Court ruled  that the burning of the American flag is protected under the first amendment of the US Constitution.

It is important that nonverbal elements of freedom of speech are protected, as it allows citizens to voice their concerns with societal issues or government actions in a variety of ways. Along with this, if the government starts to restrict some freedom of speech, it could continue to limit other forms of free speech until citizens rights are severely restricted.

Which is an example of the expansion of the citizenship in the united states since its founding?
Lunna [17]

Answer:

An example of the expansion of citizenship is Option B: The Nineteenth Amendment barred voting discrimination based on sex.

Explanation:

There is a lot of ambiguity surrounding citizenship and women but essentially before the right to vote, the citizenship rights a woman enjoyed were tied largely to her husband. She therefore had what is called derivative citizenship. A husband and wife became the same legal person under most laws and it was the husband's responsibility to act on behalf of his wife. She was not allowed to vote or hold property in her own name unless she had the permission of her husband in most cases. An American woman who married a foreign citizen would also lose her American citizenship. The assumption was that the woman would assume the citizenship of her husband, but the laws of many foreign countries did not make this automatically so. Women would become stateless in many cases by marrying a foreign spouse. This was especially the case in the marriages of American women and Asian men who were subject to legislation like the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 that denied them citizenship.

What do peasant farmers do when they lost their crops?
Talja [164]

Answer:

What do peasant farmers do when they lost their crops?

Peasant farmers often depended on <em>subsistence agriculture</em> - this means that the farmers primarily grew crops to feed themselves and their families, rather than selling their crops for economic gain.

So, if the peasant farmers lose their crops, they will have nothing to eat. The peasants will probably go hungry and perhaps starve.

And what common pattern do we see when the masses are starving? They <em>revolt </em>! I suppose that's a bit of a stretch, but in general, the peasant class would definitely be upset at having no crops to feed themselves and their children. Such tensions will be directed at their leader or "King" who is supposed to be prepared for any disaster.

Wouldn't people think, "The leader has everything he wants and can get anything he does not have, can't he share with us?"

Anyways, that's how I would interpret this question.

Hope this helps!

:D

All of the following describe the events and aftermath of the Battle of Stalingrad (August 1942-February 1943) EXCEPT:
lesya692 [45]

Answer: B. the two opposing generals were Erwin Rommel of Germany’s 6th Army and Nikita Khrushchev of the Red Army

Explanation:

The Battle of Stalingrad was one of the most brutal and bloody battles of World War II and it is estimated that the Russians lost more men here than the United States did in the entire war.

Even though Nikita Khrushchev was present in the battle, he was not the head of the army but was present as a commissar. As for Erwin Rommel, he was not in command of German forces in the East and his area of influence was Africa and then the Western front.
