Answer:

The correct answer is C. The encomienda system exploited the labor of Native Americans, whereas slavery more typically extracted labor from enslaved Africans.

Explanation:

The Encomienda system and slavery were the two main forms of labor exploitation that were used by the Spanish during the conquest of the American continent. Both methods, although in practice they were quite similar, had differences in their purpose that separated them diametrically.

Thus, the Encomienda had as its purpose the conversion of the natives to Christianity, for which the King of Spain granted its most prominent nobles in the American continent, with the objective of evangelizing the natives who were within it. This evangelization also implied the development of populations in the European style, for which the use of these natives as labor was contemplated, being paid with their "re-education".

Instead, slavery had no other purpose than the mere use of cheap labor for the production of goods. Therefore, the slaves did not have an ideological or religious value as if the natives could have it, but they were acquired in the African continent as mere merchandise.

What did the supreme court decide in korematsu v. united states(1944) regarding the internment of those with japanese ancestry l
KATRIN_1 [288]
The Supreme Court case Korematsu vs. United States determined that the internment of Japanese-American citizens during World War II was indeed constitutional (legal). The judges voted 6-3 in favor of the American government.

In this case, the majority opinion essentially argued that protecting American society against espionage( aka spying by the Japanese) outweighed the rights of Japanese-American citizens. Ultimately, it came down to the fact that the nations security was at risk and this was more important than the individual liberties of Japanese-American citizens.

Which statement best describes American policy towards native Americans in the late 19th century
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Native Americans were forced to go into reservations.

Explanation:

In the late 19th century, the Americans tried to help what was left of the Natives after the constant wars they fought for their land and the never-ending sickness and illnesses they endured which came from the Americans.  The American policy towards Natives pretty much forced them into reservations because they had nowhere else to go and the Americans were not too sure what to do with them.
