History

makvit [3.9K]4 years ago
4 0

Puritans believed that they were the people appointed by God to work as a guide to others and that every nation existed etc. John Winthrop (the Puritan leader) felt that the puritan livings of holy lifestyle and doing righteous works would purify the Anglican church. Moreover, the pioneers of the Massachusetts Bay Colony would be throwing off all the evil and past wrongdoings of Europe.

He used the phrase "city upon a hill" to explain the fact that the colony was founded with a declared mission of creating the world a signatory to the settlers' sincerity.

How did president Reagans improve the status of women during his time in the office
Vesna [10]

Answer:

He appointed the first female justice to the Supreme Court.

Explanation:

The Presidency of Ronald Reagan was what one would deem anti-feminist because of his belief in the traditional domestic world where women stay at home and mind the housework. Moreover, his agenda of anti-feminism would make it a period of dread for women, even till he was elected to be the President of the United States.

Ironically, his presidency would also bring a huge change in the feminist world. It would herald a period of progress for women, despite his anti-feminist agenda. One event that he helped improve the status of women was when he chooses to appoint Sandra Day O'Connor as the Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. She would be the first female justice to the Supreme Court of the United States.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
