Answer:

The correct answer is: African American

Explanation:

The most prominent issue in U.S. politics in the mid-1950s and during the 1960s was the struggle of blacks to end segregation and secure all their rights as citizens.

They sought the protection of the courts. However, many Southern states attempted to circumvent these rulings.

Despite progress in some states, racial integration was slow in the South. Meanwhile, many african american began to take an active part in the civil rights movement.

During the 1950s, being born black in the United States meant being born condemned to an ancestral system of discrimination, originated four centuries ago with the slave trade from Africa, and later perpetuated in the cotton plantations of the southern states.

By the mid-20th century, although slavery had disappeared a century ago, most blacks had access only to bonded labor and lived confined to the slums of southern cities.

why are the decisions in miranda v. Arizona, Gideon v. Wainwright, and mapp v. Ohio stilwhyl very important to defendants in cri
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The decisions in Miranda v. Arizona, Gideon v. Wainwright, and Mapp v. Ohio are very important to defendants in criminal proceedings today because they enlarged defendants' rights in criminal trials and investigations.

Thus, Miranda v. Arizona refers to the fact that those accused of a crime must know their rights prior to being questioned by the police, that is, that everything they say can be used against them and that they have the right to consult a lawyer.

For its part, Gideon v. Wainwright guaranteed the defendants the right to have a lawyer, even when they could not afford it on their own financial means. In this way, a defendant is not left legally unprotected for not being able to afford a lawyer, since it is the state that grants him one for free.

Finally, Mapp v. Ohio prohibits the use of illegitimately obtained evidence in criminal proceedings. Thus, non-compliance with the Fourth Amendment (and the consequent search without a warrant) renders the evidence obtained in this way not admissible in court.

How did the panama canal benefit u.s. trade
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

the answer would be D tho,

Explanation:

Before the Panama Canal was completed in 1941, the only way to trade was to sail around Cape Horn in South America which was a 13,000 mile trip and it took about 3-6 months. It was a rough journey with seasickness, and treacherous waters. However, once the Panama Canal was completed, the distance was cut by almost half to 5200 miles and the time of journey down to about a month.  

   Because of the Canal, the U.S. was able to ship  supplies so much faster. The faster a country can ship, the more willing they are to trade. They are willing to trade more because they don't have to spend so much money on fuel.   Because they spend less money on fuel, they can carry more supplies. Now most all the money the U.S. gets from trade is through the Panama Canal. If you are confused, here is an example of how it works. If England were selling products to Peru, England's economy would suffer if the Canal were not operating. Without access to the Canal, the cost of exports from England to Peru would significantly increase because England would have to regain the added expenses involved in sailing around South America. Because of increased prices, Peru could not afford to purchase as many products from England, which in turn would decrease England's revenues gained from exports. Decreased revenues means that England would have less money available to purchase products from the United States and other countries. A "domino effect" would be set in motion as the United States and other countries experienced similar problems with their exports and imports.

   America prospers from the same example. If San Fransisco wanted to make trade with New York, and they were trading perishable food items, the three month voyage (without the canal) would spoil the food. But with the Panama Canal the one month voyage would keep the goods perfectly ripe and ready for trade.

Hope this helps
