The Fair Employment Practice Committee (FEPC) was responsible for preventing job discrimination in US defense industries, which primarily affected African American workers (D).

The FEPC was created in 1941 following the United States' entry into World War II, in order to implement President Franklin D. Roosevelt's desire to ban "discriminatory employment practices by Federal agencies and all unions and companies engaged in war-related work."

In theory, it targeted various minorities and was meant to help them get jobs (especially higher-skilled jobs) to participate in the war effort. In practice though, African Americans in particular benefited from the FEPC. Prior to the creation of the Committee, they often were stuck with low-skilled jobs that paid very little.

It is believed that the FEPC played a large role in the important economic improvements black men experienced during the fourties.

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Alexander Hamilton belonged to the Federalist Party, which supported the idea of a strong central government. He thought that the federal government should be able to keep a strong army and navy, to raise taxes, and to have good relations with Great Britain.

James Madison was on the opposite side. He was a member of the Democratic-Republican Party. This party favored a weak central government, and favored state and local power.

The biggest rift between Hamilton and Madison came when the issue of a federal bank came up in Congress. Hamilton wanted to create a Central Bank to take on the debts of the states, and to fund future programs and armies, Madison, as anti-federalist, naturally opposed this idea.

This rift was solved with the Compromise of 1790. The southerners, including James Madison, agreed to the creation of a national bank in exchange for having the new capital in southern territory (Washington D.C.).
