Answer:

Three senteces:

Both documents declare that humans possess certain natural rights that cannot be infringed by anyone, not even the government.
The U.S. Constitution establishes the U.S. as republic, where government is a public matter, and is bestowed to the wishes of the people.
The Constitution also gives citizens the power to remove the goverment in case it becomes incompetent or tyrannical.

These are all deeply democratic ideas that can be traced back to Ancient Greece and Rome, as well as the Magna Carta, and the ideas of philosophers such as John Locke, and Montesquieu.

What was the effect of Carter’s attempts to free the hostages in Iran? The hostages were returned to the United States immediate

laiz [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. All of Carter's attempts failed.

Explanation:

The taking of hostages at the US embassy in Iran in 1979 lasted 444 days, between 1979 and 1981. It all began on November 4, 1979, when between 300 and 400 Islamist students jumped over the wall that surrounded the building from the US embassy in Tehran and, after defeating the Marines who were guarding him, they settled in place without letting anyone go.

64 hostages, handcuffed and blindfolded, were distributed in different buildings of the complex. After the release of a dozen of them, 52 remained in captivity. The Islamists demanded the extradition of the Shah, Mohammed Pahlavi, protected by the United States and who had left the country eight months earlier, after the Islamic revolution evicted him from power.

The kidnappers remained firm during the 14 months of the hostages taking, which ended on January 20, 1981, when President Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter's successor, took office, to which the Islamic authorities refused to make concessions. Even though the negotiation was not successful because two rescue operations were failed, and that was one of the reasons for his non-re-election, President Carter achieved liberation on the last day of his term as emissary of the Reagan administration.

What freedom did the Civil Rights Act of 1875 grant black patrons? the right to equal citizenship the opportunity to hold office

Law Incorporation [45]

The correct answer is: The Civil Rights Act of 1875 granted black patrons the right to use public facilities.

The Civil Rights Act of 1875, was enacted in response to civil rights violations to African Americans, giving them equal treatment in public accommodations, public transportation, and to prohibit exclusion from jury service. The bill was signed by President Ulysses S. Grant and was not effectively enforced. In fact, years later, the Supreme Court ruled that the public accommodation sections of the act were unconstitutional, saying Congress was not afforded control over private persons.
