History

Schach [20]3 years ago

Answer:

It was more widespread than in Europe or other colonies.

Explanation:

Political participation in colonial Massachusetts was bolstered by the lack of property-ownership requirements common elsewhere. Instead, adult males who were church members in good standing were able to vote. This meant that about 55% of the colony’s men were able to vote in 1641, which was a stark contrast from England; there, less than 30% of men were eligible to vote.

The correct answer is:  

It was more limited and restricted to clergy and nobility.

In the Massachusetts Bay Colony, religion and government were profoundly tangled and only proven devoted Puritans were allowed to partake in governmental affairs, actually creating a theocracy (government administered by religious officials who impose religious beliefs). The Puritans were extremely intolerant of other religions and constantly persecuted other religious views, principally Quakers.

Select all that apply to the 14th amendment.
Elan Coil [88]

The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1868, guaranteed "equal protection of the laws" to all citizens, including former slaves, and granted citizenship to anyone born or naturalized in the country.

<h3><u>The 14th Amendment is what?</u></h3>

One of the Reconstruction Amendments, the Fourteenth Amendment (Amendment XIV) to the United States Constitution was ratified on July 9, 1868. It addresses citizenship rights and equal protection under the law, and it was proposed in response to problems involving former slaves after the American Civil War.

It is frequently regarded as one of the most significant amendments. The states of the defeated Confederacy, which were compelled to ratify the amendment in order to regain representation in Congress, fiercely opposed it.

The amendment, and especially its first section, is one of the most contentious parts of the Constitution, serving as the foundation for important Supreme Court rulings on issues like racial segregation in schools in Brown v. Board of Education (1954), abortion in Roe v. Wade (1973) (which will be overturned in 2022), the 2000 presidential election in Bush v. Gore (2000), and same-sex marriage in Obergefell v. Hodges (2015).

Daniel [21]

Answer:

Andrew Jackson Writing Piece
klio [65]
After examining Jackson’s accomplishments compared to his shortcomings and controversies, it can be difficult to be unbiased when deciding if he should or should not be replaced on the bill. Many historians and scholars are in disagreement with each other on the topic. Some believe he should be featured on the back of the bill and not the front George Washington, the first president of the United States, appears on the $1 bill and was also a slaveholder like Jackson. Around 300 slaves lived at Mount Vernon when George Washington died. He also supported legislation upholding slavery and also opposed other legislation on slavery. He signed the fugitive slave act guaranteed a right for a slaveholder to recover an escaped slave. He also signed the Northwest Ordinance that recognized the Northwest territory and outlawed slavery within the territory. He never publicly denounced slavery as an institution, and there is no discussion of removing him from the $1 bill.

When taking a closer look at the behaviors of both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, we can see that they share similarities with Jackson. If removing Andrew Jackson from the $20 bill is considered then so should removing Washington and Jefferson. However, Jackson is far too controversial, especially in recent years. He would be in the right spot if he was moved to the back of the bill, and someone like Harriet Tubman replaced him in the front. His accomplishments earn him his place on the bill, but his controversial actions lessen what he has earned which is why he should appear on the back. Especially compared to President Abraham Lincoln, who is featured on the $5 bill, Jackson should be featured on the back of the bill. Lincoln who had some of the greatest presidential accomplishments, like the passing of the 13th Amendment and the Emancipation Proclamation
