<u>Women.</u>

The Fifteenth Amendment, enacted in 1870, granted African Americans men the right to vote for the first time in American history, by establishing that the rights of U.S. citizens to vote must not be denied or abridged on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. It was one of the many first steps to legally stop discrimination in the nation. However, America would still have a long way to go to fully accomplish that, even after the 19th Amendment which expanded the right to vote for women.

What was the ruling in the supreme court case of yick wo v. hopkins?the court ruled that chinese americans did not enjoy the sam
ASHA 777 [7]
N 1880, San Fransisco enacted an ordinance that required all laundry businesses had to be in buildings that were made of stone or brick. If they wanted to have a laundry that was in a wooden building, they needed to get permission from the board of supervisors. Due to challenges in other employment areas, Chinese immigrants often worked in or owned laundromats. In fact, 89% of San Fransisco's laundry businesses were operated by workers of Chinese descent.

The board of supervisors began granting whites permission to have laundry businesses in wooden buildings but didn't grant permission to Chinese immigrants. Those that violated this ordinance had to pay a fine. Yick Wo was an operator for 22 years in San Fransisco. He did not have a permit and refused to pay the fine. Wo was arrested and convicted. He then appealed his conviction, saying that the law was discriminating against him because of his race. The court ruled that he was still protected under the 14th Amendment and dismissed all charges. Looking at the background for this case and the ruling, the best answer choice would be that the court ruled that Chinese Americans were able to operate laundry facilities, just as native-born citizens could.

Simora [160]

Answer:

the conflict heralded the rise of conscription, mass propaganda, the national security state and the FBI. It accelerated income tax and urbanisation and helped make America the pre-eminent economic and military power in the world.

However inflation was high and, in an attempt to reduce operating costs, businesses laid off workers and reduced wages.

How did the han chinese attempt to assimilate conquered peoples?
N76 [4]
I don't know which specific context you refer to - the Han Chinese have conquered many people. 

So I will provide one example - in Taiwan, the aboriginal people were required to have Chinese names in their passports until recently, which means that every person was forced to adopt a Chinese name, and often their original name was dropped, and (over generation) forgotten. This has changed how people self-identify: weakening their indigenous sense of identity.
