How was the Iran Contra Scandal a threat to American success?
Anton [14]

The Iran-Contra affair was a scandal involving the US and Iran. Iran was at an arms embargo at the time, so no arms were supposed to be sold to this country. The US though was secretly selling arms to Iran. This came out on the surface and became a big scandal. The US administration was trying to justify this move that they have done it order to free American hostages held in Lebanon by Hezbollah, but it turned out that the arms sale started much earlier then that. Apart from having a badly damaged reputation, both at home and on the international scene, the US success in the region was also damaged. The Arab world was a sworn enemy of Iran, and they thought that the US is their friend and protector, but it came on surface that the US is arming their enemy, so it disrupted the relations with these countries for the time being.

Explain the significance of the Dred Scott Supreme Court case. What issues were debated and what was the Court’s ruling?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The Dred Scott Decision outraged abolitionists, who saw the Supreme Court's ruling as a way to stop debate about slavery in the territories. The divide between North and South over slavery grew and culminated in the secession of southern states from the Union and the creation of the Confederate States of America.

By the time the U.S. Supreme Court handed down its Dred Scott decision, Irene had married her second husband, Calvin Chaffee, a U.S. congressman and abolitionist. Upset upon learning his wife still owned the most infamous slave of the time, he sold Scott and his family to Taylor Blow, the son of Peter Blow, Scott’s original owner.

Taylor freed Scott and his family on May 26, 1857. Scott found work as a porter in a St. Louis hotel, but didn’t live long as a free man. At about 59 years of age, Scott died from tuberculosis on September 17, 1858.

The Dred Scott Decision outraged abolitionists, who saw the Supreme Court’s ruling as a way to stop debate about slavery in the territories. The divide between North and South over slavery grew and culminated in the secession of southern states from the Union and the creation of the Confederate States of America. The Emancipation Proclamation of September 22, 1862 freed slaves living in the Confederacy, but it would be another three years until Congress passed the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery in the United States

How were slaves obtained from the African interior? Do Barbot and Equiano agree on the methods used?
Andrew [12]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you did not provide any context, reference, or text, we can answer in general terms in order to help you.

Black slaves were obtained from the African interior through the Trans Sharan trade and the Transatlantic Slave trade. Whites striped members of families away to be sold in the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Of course, Equiano did not agree with the methods used because they were cruel. As he described in his book "The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano," African slaves were transported to the Americas in overcrowded spaces in ships that crossed teh ocean on a long trip. Inside the ship, the spread of diseases sickened many slaves and killed others.

Is ethnicity / race based off on your mother and father ?<br><br> I think it is.... right?
sleet_krkn [62]
I think it really depends on what you believe in. However, if you're talking about a classification of a bi-racial child, then the child is most likely as to what ethnic the father is.
