Answer:
The fourteenth amendment guaranteed rights for citizens (regardless of race, gender, or creed) who are born or naturalized within the United States. Although racism still exists today, it is clear that race is not a factor in citizenship. The fifteenth amendment guaranteed all African American males the right to vote, and the nineteenth amendment gave women the right to vote. The effects of the fourteenth and nineteenth amendment are clear. While all citizens over eighteen now have the right to vote, the 2008 election proved that the effects are more far-reaching. For the first time, the presidential race saw both an African-American and a female seriously competing for the presidency.
Answer:
During his annual address to Congress, President James Monroe proclaims a new U.S. foreign policy initiative that becomes known as the “Monroe Doctrine.” Primarily the work of Secretary of State John Quincy Adams, the Monroe Doctrine forbade European interference in the American hemisphere but also asserted U.S. neutrality in regard to future European conflicts.
The origins of the Monroe Doctrine stem from attempts by several European powers to reassert their influence in the Americas in the early 1820s. In North America, Russia had attempted to expand its influence in the Alaska territory, and in Central and South America the U.S. government feared a Spanish colonial resurgence. Britain too was actively seeking a major role in the political and economic future of the Americas, and Adams feared a subservient role for the United States in an Anglo-American alliance.
The United States invoked the Monroe Doctrine to defend its increasingly imperialistic role in the Americas in the mid-19th century, but it was not until the Spanish-American War in 1898 that the United States declared war against a European power over its interference in the American hemisphere. The isolationist position of the Monroe Doctrine was also a cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy in the 19th century, and it took the two world wars of the 20th century to draw a hesitant America into its new role as a major global power.
Answer:
African Americans advanced civilization during the middle ages:
The Kingdom of Kush--- Though often overshadowed by its Egyptian neighbors to the north, the Kingdom of Kush stood as a regional power in Africa for over a thousand years. This ancient Nubian empire reached its peak in the second millennium B.C., when it ruled over a vast swath of territory along the Nile River in what is now Sudan
The Land of Punt--- Few African civilizations are as mysterious as Punt. Historical accounts of the kingdom date to around 2500 B.C., when it appears in Egyptian records as a “Land of the Gods” rich in ebony, gold, myrrh and exotic animals such as apes and leopards. Egyptians are known to have sent huge caravans and flotillas on trade missions to Punt
