Which statement describes the conflict theory of education?

Mila [183]

Answer:

You know why B is the correct answer, though, right?

Explanation:

I interpret it as pertaining to Ivy League schools and who they accept into their colleges. I don't know if you've ever heard about the 'scandal' with Harvard and the like, but they were found to be discriminant against Asians coming to their schools. African-Americans/blacks also have a tough time in higher education. So, there is definitely a high sense of racial inequality when it comes to those 'big wig' schools. As well as racial inequality possessing the potential to 'strike' at any time on college campuses in general. And we could even take this to the high school level. So, in a nutshell, I hope this provides you more context as to why B is the correct answer. There are also economic disparities in college student populations; not everybody has the funds or ability to take out student loans in order to finish their college degrees. It can be pretty costly. So, that is what is meant by that answer.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not include the map, we can comment on the following.

General Howe made his attack on the United States in the following way. General William Howe was to attack north from New York. Other generals such as John Burgoyne was coming down from the Canadian territory. So Howe decided to invade and capture the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, instead of having a strategic plan that supported the efforts with Burgoyne's troops. What General Howe wanted to do is to gain support from Loyalists in Philadelphia. Let's have in mind that Philadelphia was a key city in those years because it was the place where the Continental Congress was located.
