What negative beliefs does the term slave imply about Africans ?

History

Hey there!

The term "slave" refers to a sense of possession and dehumanization.

A slave is different than a servant; the term slave implies that they are owned. It is also accepted that the word slave (at the time) justified the harsh treatment they were given. In the eyes of their owners, they were animals. That was the message spread during the time of slaves. Books like "The Heart of Darkness" exhibit this limited and negative view of Africans in general, not just slaves. This view was reflected in culture, in economics, and in religion. Slaves are not entitled to the same humane rights and have no more standing than a horse, oxen, or any other animal that was used to profit and make a living. It also sadly exemplifies how close-minded the world can be, it happens in all cultures all around the world. It reflects human nature.

I hope this helps!

Describe the history of political parties in Texas?
Helen [10]

Answer: If we can say something about the history of political parties in Texas, it is that the Democratic party had a leading role in it if we don't take into account the Recontruction time in Texas

Explanation: the Reconstruction can be described as follows: for nine years following the Civil War, Texas was in turmoil, as its people attempted to solve political, social, and economic problems produced by the war. One of the major forces that threatened change in the state was the United States Army. Federal troops began entering the state in late May 1865. Their commanders believed that their duty, at least in part, was to ensure loyal government and to protect the rights of the blacks who were free as a result of the war. Except for an interlude during Reconstruction, the Democratic party was the leading political party in Texas until the 1960s. In the nineteenth century, however, the Whig, American (Know-Nothing), Republican, Greenback, and People's partiesqv provided at different times a formidable opposition, so that Texas did not become a real one-party state until after 1900, when the Republican party sank into insignificance and minor parties largely disappeared.

What do you believe the United States priorities should be with regard to its relationships with other countries? With at least
nirvana33 [79]
The us priorities with other countries should be export goods from other countries one because we dont produce our own,we recieve goods from other countries like china,mexico, or other foreign country for exaple china our companys exploit them and therefore investors,companys,should regulate there terms.
illegal immigrants from other countries like south America or the Mediterranean should be treated with ease and give them a policy to stay for several days until they get an approval for political aid if not send them back to where they came from and not just throw them of to a country they dont know or give them prison time,therefore the U.S should treat illegal immigrants like actual human beings.
