History

pishuonlain [190]3 years ago
7 0
"Although many of the Founding Fathers acknowledged that slavery violated the core American Revolutionary ideal of liberty, their simultaneous commitment to private property rights, principles of limited government, and intersectional harmony prevented them from making a bold move against slavery. In his initial draft of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson condemned the injustice of the slave trade and, by implication, slavery, but he also blamed the presence of enslaved Africans in North America on avaricious British colonial policies. Jefferson thus acknowledged that slavery violated the natural rights of the enslaved, while at the same time he absolved Americans of any responsibility for owning slaves themselves."

Which option most accurately summarizes the root of the Red Summer riots?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The response that best summarizes the root of the Red Summer riots is Option D: Northern white Americans, alarmed by growing black populations, harassed African Americans, who sometimes resorted to violence when they discovered they could not rely on law enforcement.

Explanation:

The Red Summer refers to a series of uprisings in 1919 that took place across the United States, by anti-black white supremacists. They terrorized local populations of black people in more than 30 cities and 1 rural county in Arkansas near a town called Elaine, which incidentally had the most casualties with an estimated 100 to 240 African Americans killed, and 5 white people.  Other areas where African Americans fought back were Chicago and Washington, DC. The racial riots against blacks resulted from a variety of postwar social tensions, including an economic downturn and pressures for low income housing between Southern European immigrants and African American communities.
