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

1 answer:

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.

It was the position of the soviet union that there could not be a workers revolution in Spain 1936 but rather society needed to

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The Spanish Revolution was a workers' social revolution that began during the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War in 1936 and resulted in the widespread implementation of anarchist and more broadly libertarian socialist organizational principles throughout various portions of the country for two to three years, primarily Catalonia, Aragon, Andalusia, and parts of the Valencian Community. Much of the economy of Spain was put under worker control; in anarchist strongholds like Catalonia, the figure was as high as 75%. Factories were run through worker committees, and agrarian areas became collectivized and run as libertarian socialist communes. Many small businesses like hotels, barbershops, and restaurants were also collectivized and managed by their workers.

The collectivization effort was primarily orchestrated by the rank-and-file members of the Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (CNT; National Confederation of Labor) and the Federación Anarquista Ibérica (FAI; Iberian Anarchist Federation). The socialist Unión General de Trabajadores (UGT; General Union of Workers) also participated in the implementation of collectivization.
