Answer:

<em>B. colonial powers lumped and separated indigenous groups into arbitrary countries.</em>

Explanation:

Postcolonial countries of Africa were formed during the independence around 1963, but there was an agreement that the Organization of African Union could not violate the colonial’s boundaries set before.

Because of that agreement after the decolonization some countries changed their names but they kept the division made in Berlin Conference of Africa (1884), which divided it in fifty countries, which were still under colonial powers. In the division they did not consider cultural differences, language or tried to keep the same tribes in the same country, it was a separation of indigenous groups into arbitrary countries.

What was the most important and lasting impact of the Black Power Movement of the 1960s and 1970s?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Equal Rights.

Explanation:

Before this time, blacks were "free" but with numerous restrictions. The only difference between their enslavement and "freedom" was that they had more protection and had to be paid for work in most scenarios. After the Black Power Movement, they were entitled to many of the same rights as the average white person, but it would still be years before they were as free as they are today.

How did the Church play a role in people’s lives socially?​
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The development of Christianity’s influence on the character of society since the Reformation has been twofold. In the realm of state churches and territorial churches, Christianity contributed to the preservation of the status quo of society. In England the Anglican church remained an ally of the throne, as did the Protestant churches of the German states. In Russia the Orthodox church continued to support a social order founded upon the monarchy, and even the monarch carried out a leading function within the church as protector.

Though the impulses for transformation of the social order according to the spirit of the Christian ethic came more strongly from the Free churches, state and territorial churches made positive contributions in improving the status quo. In 17th- and 18th-century Germany, Lutheran clergy, such as August Francke (1663–1727), were active in establishing poorhouses, orphanages, schools, and hospitals. In England, Anglican clerics, such as Frederick Denison Maurice and Charles Kingsley in the 19th century, began a Christian social movement during the Industrial Revolution that brought Christian influence to the conditions of life and work in industry. Johann Hinrich Wichern proclaimed, “There is a Christian Socialism,” at the Kirchentag Church Convention in Wittenberg [Germany] in 1848, the year of the publication of the Communist Manifesto and a wave of revolutions across Europe, and created the “Inner Mission” in order to address “works of saving love” to all suffering spiritual and physical distress. The diaconal movements of the Inner Mission were concerned with social issues, prison reform, and care of the mentally ill.

The Anglo-Saxon Free churches made great efforts to bring the social atmosphere and living conditions into line with a Christian understanding of human life. Methodists and Baptists addressed their message mainly to those segments of society that were neglected by the established church. They recognized that the distress of the newly formed working class, a consequence of industrialization, could not be removed by the traditional charitable means used by the state churches. In Germany, in particular, the spiritual leaders of the so-called revival movement, such as Friedrich Wilhelm Krummacher (1796–1868), denied the right of self-organization to the workers by claiming that all earthly social injustices would receive compensation in heaven, which caused Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels to separate themselves completely from the church and its purely charitable attempts at a settlement of social conflicts and to declare religion with its promise of a better beyond as the “opiate of the people.” This reproach, however, was as little in keeping with the social-ethical activities of the Inner Mission and of Methodists and Baptists as it was with the selfless courage of the Quakers, who fought against social demoralization, against the catastrophic situation in the prisons, against war, and, most of all, against slavery.
