The historian William Leuchtenburg called FDR’s New Deal reforms a “half-way revolution” because FDR’s reforms, while beneficial to single women, were biased against married women.

The New Deal constituted a set of programs, public work projects, financial reforms, and regulations enacted by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the United States between 1933 and 1936 to respond to the needs for relief, reform, and recovery from the Great Depression.

Yes because back then, India was a colony of England and basically owned by a company called the East India company with military enforcement. The people had no representation and also were forced to pay taxes such as the salt tax that ghandi famously went against during the salt March.
Likewise, the united states back then was also a colony of India and had no representation as well as had to pay taxes from laws such as the stamp act. Their values in fighting for independence and free reign were very similar. So yes.

Describe in your own words the interaction between Dante and the lady who comes to visit him in canto 2

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Dante is standing at the mouth of hell with Virgil and he feels a great sense of dread and apprehension about continuing. Virgil then tells him that a women told him to find Dante and be his guide in hell, this lady was Beatrice. She came down from Heaven to tell Virgil of Dante's story and ask him to help Dante. Beatrice was Dante's true love (in real life and in the story) who died and is now counted among the blessed in Heaven. She had learned of Dante's plight from St. Lucia, also in Heaven, who in turn heard about the poor poet from the Virgin Mary. Beatrice symbolizes divine love and is sent by Mary and Lucia to help Dante by enlisting Virgil's help. Beatrice also knows that Dante will listen to Virgil if he knows that she has intervened and still loves him and that he is being watched over.
