Well, within enlightenment there was a large focus on reason, science and individualism. Therefore there was an emphasis on science over religion. As well, there was the idea of challenging traditional authority (with the idea of individualism), so one traditional authority was of course the church. So you had people challenging the church's authority as well. All this combined would lead to a more secular outlook.

Explain why you think it has been so difficult for African-Americans to become principal owners of professional sports teams.

andre [41]

Answer:

Racism and bias against African-Americans caused many white sports players to refuse African-Americans as owners of their teams. Many people, especially white southerners, found it hard to believe black people were capable of owning professional jobs such as sports teams, so they had no support from anyone in owning those teams.

Explanation:

When Jackie Robinson signed with the Dodgers, many of his teammates doubted him because he was black, so he had to work extra hard to gain recognition in the team.
