Debora [2.8K]3 years ago

Malcolm X believed Uncle Toms were black people that were very obedient to white people or used by the white man to keep other blacks “in check”. He stated "Just as the slavemaster in that day used Uncle Tom to keep the field negroes in check, he was the same old slavemaster who today has negroes who are nothing but modern Uncle Toms - 20th-century Uncle Toms - to keep you and me in check." He believed Uncle Toms slowed progress for blacks in America due to the fact of integration. Malcolm X believed that blacks and whites should stay away from each other and not integrate as he stated “You don't integrate with a sinking ship." So Malcolm X saw it as if blacks were integrating with whites then no progress will be made due to the fact that black separatism (blacks creating separate institutions / not integrating) was not being practiced.

Drupady [299]

Explanation:

Sulla changed the government back to the Patrician or aristocratic rule. (or at least he tried to) He greatly reduced the power of the equestrians, who were most of the judges at the time and weeded out any senators with populist leanings. His use of the proscription helped to rid Rome of many of the Marist party, who he considered subversive.

What were the Committees of Correspondence and the Boston Tea Party and explain how they were, in part, a reaction to the Boston
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The Committees of Correspondence were the American colonies’ means for maintaining communication lines in the years before the Revolutionary War. In 1764, Boston formed the earliest Committee of Correspondence to encourage opposition to Britain’s stiffening of customs enforcement and prohibition of American paper money. The following year, New York formed a similar committee to keep the other colonies notified of its actions in resisting the Stamp Act. In 1773, the Virginia House of Burgesses proposed that each colonial legislature appoint a committee for intercolonial correspondence. The exchanges that followed built solidarity during the turbulent times and helped bring about the formation of the First Continental Congress in 1774.

Germany defended its aggression, claiming Lusitania had carried weapons and war supplies and was therefore fair game. As they continued to divert blame, British propaganda against them snowballed.
