Correct answer:

D. Investors sold off vast amounts of their stocks.

Explanation:

There was much speculative buying on the stock market in "the Roaring '20s," as the decade was known.  In the 1920s, people were so eager to invest and earn profits through the stock market that they bought stocks "on margin."  In other words, they paid for only a marginal percentage of the stocks with their own funds, and borrowed bank funds for the rest of the purchase.  That meant the banks were complicit in this arrangement too, by allowing those sorts of loans. By the late 1920s, 90% of the purchase price of stocks was being made with borrowed money.  This inflated the market in a way that spiraled out of control, and in 1929 that bubble burst.  When the market began to experience problems, investors sought to sell off their stocks as quickly as they could, the Black Thursday crash became worse and worse.

The Dawes Act of 1887 authorized the federal government to break up tribal lands by partitioning them into individual plots. Only those Native Americans who accepted the individual allotments were allowed to become US citizens.

<h3>What is Dawes Act?</h3>

On tribal lands within the United States, the Dawes Act of 1887 governed land rights. Its authority, which bears Senator Henry L. Dawes's name from Massachusetts, allows the President of the United States to divide communal Native American tribal landholdings into allotments for Native American family and individual heads of household.

By making Native Americans "assume a capitalist and proprietary connection with property" that did not previously exist in their cultures, this would change the traditional systems of land tenure into a system of private property that is imposed by the government. The law gave tribes the choice to sell the federal government any unclaimed lands. Before allotments of private property could be made, the government had to determine "which Indians were eligible," which prompted a "official hunt.

Read about the Plessy v Ferguson case. In your own words, write a half-page summary discussing the background of the case and th
ch4aika [34]

Plessy vs. Ferguson was a Supreme Court case that took place in 1896. It all started when Homer Plessy, a man who is 1/8th African American, was asked to move from his seat in the all white section of a train car. Plessy refused to move since he had bought a seat in this section. He was promptly arrested for his refusal to abide by this law.

Homer Plessy would go on to change this law saying that it was unconstitutional. His lawyer argued that this was a violation of his 14th amendment rights. However, the Supreme Court ruled against Plessy. The majority opinion from the Supreme Court stated that this did not violate the 14th amendment as long as the facilities for blacks and whites were "separate but equal."

This ruling drastically changed American society, as other businesses and facilities became segregated by race. These laws would last for almost half a century in the United States.
