What were the causes and effects of the scopes trial and racial tension

History
1 answer:
insens350 [35]2 years ago
8 0

The cause of the Scopes Trial was disagreement about evolution. One side thought that evolution should be taught in schools, while another side said that it shouldn’t. It was also said that teaching of evolution was in violation of Tennessee’s Butler Act which stated that it was unlawful to teach evolution in any state-funded school.

 

It was purposely meant to also bring publicity, but in the end, John Scopes was fined $100 dollars which is equivalent to over $1000 dollars today. Many of the people and reporters went to the “big-shot” lawyers involved in the case so, the lawyers to morph the truth into anything they wished and the public hung on to their words. One thing it teaches is that we need to look at both sides because one side could be changed to what someone wants.

Answer:

sectionalism  - concern for one's region over concern for  the entire nation

popular sovereignty  - the idea that people should be able to vote  on important issues

nullify  - to invalidate something or make it null and void

states' rights  - the idea that states should hold the most  political power

Explanation:

Sectionalism can be seen the most when we have certain quarrels between certain regions.

The best example of popular sovereignty was when the new states were choosing whether to enter in the Union as a free state or with allowance of slavery.

In general when we are nullifying something, we are actually making it without value.

States' rights is the doctrine according to which government should have the supreme authority.

Answer:

C. He can grant reprieves and pardons.

Explanation:

I want to say it's C because the President cannot remove judges from the bench, nor can he overturn supreme court rulings. As for interpreting laws, his power to interpret laws is limited to certain things. Sorry if this doesn't help!

Please Mark Brainliest. Hope this helps!

George was the second vice-president of the Rwandan Hutu militia Interahamwe. Rutaganda was partly responsible for the Rwandan genocide of 1994. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for genocide, crimes against humanity and murder.

Paul Rusesabagina, manager of the Hôtel des Mille Collines, is Hutu, but his wife Tatiana, is Tutsi. Their marriage is a source of friction with Hutu extremists, including Georges Rutaganda, a goods supplier to the hotel who is also the local leader of Interahamwe, a brutal Hutu militia.
