Answer:

Lester Maddox

Explanation:

Lester Garfield Maddox Sr. (September 30, 1915 – June 25, 2003) was an American politician who served as the 75th Governor of the U.S. state of Georgia from 1967 to 1971. Being a populist Democrat, he gained the ‘fame’ a staunch segregationist when he refused to serve black customers in his restaurant in Atlanta, in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Later, he served as Lieutenant Governor during the period when Jimmy Carter was Governor. Upon the death of Martin Luther King, Jr., he denied the murdered civil rights leader in the honor of the farewell ceremony at the Georgia Capitol.

Question 2 of 5
san4es73 [151]

Based on the evidence in <em>"The Progress of the World,"</em> the author's purpose is <u>D. To warn Americans</u> of the potential costs of war.

<h3>What is the progress of the world?</h3>

The progress of the world can be measured in the remarkable increase in global quality of life.  One example of the progress of the world is documented by the "World Database of Happiness."

This database provides extensive lists of social, economic, and psychological factors that depict the remarkable progress that the world has recorded in the recent past, especially the technological advances.

Thus, the author's purpose is not to provide a scientific explanation for the explosion, turn American opinion against the Spanish, or mourn the loss of Maine and its crew, but it is to warn Americans of the <u>potential costs of war</u>.

5. How did the slave trade contribute to the rise of industry in Britain?
Ganezh [65]

From 1750 onwards a new industry emerged in Britain - the production of cotton cloth. Wool production had previously been Britain's major industry, but cotton had one key advantage - machinery could process cotton fibres better than wool.

As a result it was in cotton production that the industrial revolution began, particularly in and around Manchester. The cotton used was mostly imported from slave plantations. Slavery provided the raw material for industrial change and growth.

The growth of the Atlantic economy was an integral part of the growth of exports - for example manufactured cotton cloth was exported to Africa.

The Atlantic economy can be seen as the spark for the biggest change in modern economic history. The Atlantic economy in the 1700s was founded on slave labour.
