Answer:

Explanation:

The red scare of the 1920s was a terrible event in the history of America and it led the Congress to immediately pass the Emergency quota Act of 1921.

The emergency qouta act was introduced basically to reduce the rate at which foreign born immigrants or citizens were coming into America.

Native born Americans saw immigrants from other countries as a threat and although the number of immigrants increased prior to the red scared of 1920, the Emergency qouta act reduced influx of foreign citizens into the United states. Statistics showed that the number of immigrants was significantly reduced by half the originally published number.

"There would be an end to everything, were the sane man or the sane body...to exercise those three powers, that of enacting laws
vodomira [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

These words are part of Montesquieu's treatise The Spirit of the Laws. More specifically, they belong to the Chapter 6 ("Of the Constitution of Engand") of this treatise.

In this text, Montesquieu defends political liberty. Moreover, he argues that the best way of achieving it is by establishing the separation of the powers. In that way, Montesquieu believes that the different functions of government, that is to say the executive, legislative, and judicial functions, should be assigned to different bodies. Furthermore, he argues that liberty cannot be established in a nation where there is no separation of powers.

Which of the following statements best describes a change that impacted African Americans in the 1950s?
vlada-n [284]

Correct answer:  Court cases challenged the legality of discrimination.

I'll mention key court cases after debunking the other answers in the list.  Truman's desegregation of the armed forces happened already in 1948, and impacted only those in the armed forces, rather than all African Americans.  The suburbs were NOT welcoming toward African Americans, and they remained in living mostly in urban centers.

As to key court cases of the 1950s regarding discrimination:

1950: Sweatt v. Painter and McLaurin v. Oklahoma State Regents.  In these cases, the Supreme Court said segregation of African American students in law and graduate schools was unconstitutional.  This was the start of challenging "separate-but-equal" policies.

1954: Brown v. Board of Education.  Firm decision that "separate but equal" policies were unconstitutional across the education system.  Chief Justice Earl Warren, speaking for the unanimous opinion of the Court, said: “Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.”  

1955: Brown v. Board II.  The Supreme Court directed that school systems must abolish segregation “with all deliberate speed.”

1956: The Supreme Court affirmed a lower court ruling that the segregation of the Montgomery, Alabama, bus system was illegal.  This was in reference to the bus boycott that had begun with the protest by Rosa Parks.

1958: Cooper v. Aaron.  The Supreme Court upheld the US Court of Appeals (8th Circuit) decision that resistance by local officials and threats of violence in the community did not  justify delaying desegregation.  This followed in the wake of the Little Rock Nine (a group of black students) seeking enrollment in LIttle Rock Central High School.
