"There are several circumstances in the situation, employments, and duties of women, in America, which require a peculiar mode o

f education. The early marriages of our women, by contracting the time allowed for education, renders it necessary to contract its plan, and to confine it chiefly to the more useful branches of literature. The state of property, in America, renders it necessary for the greatest part of our citizens to employ themselves, in different occupations, for the advancement of their fortunes. This cannot be done without the assistance of the female members of the community. They must be the stewards, and guardians of their husbands' property. That education, therefore, will be most proper for our women which teaches them to discharge the duties of those offices with the most success and reputation. [A] principal share of the instruction of children naturally devolves upon the women. It becomes us therefore to prepare them by a suitable education, for the discharge of this most important duty of mothers. The equal share that every citizen has in the liberty, and the possible share he may have in the government, of our country, make it necessary that our ladies should be qualified to a certain degree by a peculiar and suitable education, to concur in instructing their sons in the principles of liberty and government."—Benjamin Rush, from "Thoughts upon Female Education," 1787

Answer:

Option C is the answer.

Explanation:

Benjamin Rush was a signer of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. He was born on January 4, 1746 and died in 1813. He was a civic leader in Philadelphia and also an expert on several fields, such as physics, politics, humanitarianism, among others. He was one of the most important characters in the American Enlightenment, a period that took place between the 17th and 18th century in the thirteen American colonies. This movement led to the American Revolution. As seen in the passage, one of its main characteristics was to give ideas a useful form in the nation and its people.

What were the major failings of the Dawes Act? (Site 1)
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Historian Eric Foner believed "the policy proved to be a disaster, leading to the loss of much tribal land and the erosion of Indian cultural traditions." The law often placed Indians on desert land unsuitable for agriculture, and it also failed to account for Indians who could not afford the cost of farming. In addition to scant payment, Native Americans were not used to spending money and quickly spent most of what they received. Many were left with little land and little money. Inheritance also became an issue for many Native Americans who enrolled to receive land from the Dawes Act. The assimilation policy of the Dawes Act failed because it didn't take into account the social and cultural differences between the Native Americans and the white settlers. Many others like the Kiowas didn't want to assimilate into white culture and as such resisted.
