Answer: Trade with India

Vasco da Gama was a Portuguese explorer. He is significant for being the first European to reach India by sea. The route da Gama discovered was also the first to link Europe and Asia by sea.

This was a significant discovery as it encouraged the establishment of the Portuguese as an imperial and colonial power in Asia. It also allowed them to trade with India without having to cross the Mediterranean or the dangerous Arabian peninsula.

The zoot suit riots in Los Angeles revealed which of the following? (5 points) Select one: a. the failure of the Congress of Rac
Vikentia [17]

Answer: c. the racial tension between Mexican Americans and mainstream society.

The zoot suit riots of 1943 were a series of conflicts between European white Americans (particularly those in the military service) and predominantly Mexican youth. The trigger for these was the youth’s preference for “zoot suits.” This type of suits required a lot of fabric to be made, which was seen by the white Americans as unpatriotic, because of the rationing of fabric that was established during the war.

While this specific reason was the main trigger, the riots also showed the underlying racial tensions that were found in American societies, particularly in large cities. The riots also seemed to have been the inspiration for several similar events that year in Philadelphia, Oakland, Chicago, San Diego, Evansville and New York City.

Compare the various artistic influences on African culture. What do these
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:African art has as its main influence religion, functionalism and utilitarianism. Depending on the region, one of these influences may be stronger than the other, sub-Saharan Africa, for example, the art that is most influenced by religion, probably because of the social and economic difficulties they face, which make artists connect more with religion as a way of supporting national problems. The areas where these problems are not so prominent, usually have greater influences on utilitarianism and functionalism, probably because artists have more access to concepts, techniques and information.

African societies place a lot of importance on art because it is a way of externalizing feelings and promoting criticism. This is very strong in this region that was so scrapped and exploited by other nations that it caused problems that can still be seen today in these societies.
