Why is it significant that many Jim Crow laws reference gender as well as race?

English
1 answer:
NISA [10]3 years ago
4 0

The Jim Crow laws were designed to enforce discrimination and segregation in the south. Their purpose was to ensure that white Americans remain in control over the black population through economic and social dominance. As well as in control over women too. Unfortunately, men deemed women only slightly better than African Americans in terms of their social standing as they expected them to be subservient to men who were the heads of the households.

Identify the antecedent for the underlined pronoun in each sentence below:
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Its - car

This - More and more physicians are beginning to look not just for illnesses but also for patients' habits with long-term health  implications

Its - cow

Someone - no antecedent

It - antecedent not clear

Explanation:

The antecedent of a pronoun is the word or phrase whose place the pronoun takes. In some cases, the antecedent is obvious, while in others it's either missing or not clear.

In the first and third sentences, it's simple. In the first sentence, a car's transmission is mentioned. Instead of repeating the word <em>car</em>, we will use the pronoun<em> it</em> and its possessive form <em>its</em><em>.</em> It's the same in the third sentence (cow's tail - its tail).

The second example is interesting because the antecedent of the pronoun <em>this</em> is the entire previous sentence.

In the fourth sentence, the antecedent is missing. We don't know instead of what word the pronoun <em>someone</em> is used.

In the fifth, the antecedent is not clear as the pronoun <em>it </em>could be used to refer to the word <em>rain</em>, or the word <em>mud</em>.

first person to show a single perspective.

to tell an old story from a new point of view.

with Grendel acting as a first-person narrator.

Explanation:

The narrator is also the main character and the pronoun "I" is the one most used, so the story is told in the first person. So we can see now how an old story is different when told from someone else's perspective, in this case, Grendel's.
