The correct answer is B: <em>American jails</em>

American jails have often been referred to as<em> </em><em>“the ultimate ghetto”</em> as these jails continue to be the most neglected component of the criminal justice system. The people who have not been tried often remain in jail which is also known as the <em>ultimate ghetto</em>. The American jails hold a capacity of 750,000 in one single day. A <em>"presumed innocence"</em> pretrial detainee may spend several weeks at the same confined space with retained felons and troubled people.

Explain the extent to which Rudyard Kipling bias affects the poem as a reliable source of evidence about imperialism.
exis [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

This famous writer was born Joseph Rudyard Kipling in Bombay on December 30th, 1865, after his mother Alice Macdonald, a methodist minister’s daughter, and his father John Lockwood Kipling, an artist, moved there so John could work as the director of an art school. Kipling lived happily in India until he was six, when his father sent him back to England to study. At sixteen Kipling returned to his parents in India and worked on the Civil and Military Gazette, also writing and publishing a number of poems and stories. Kipling returned again to England in 1889 where he gained fame and credibility with his publication of Barrack-Room Ballads. In 1892, he married an American, Carrie Balestier, sister of his dear friend and sometimes partner, Wolcott Balestier, and settled with her in Vermont. There he wrote Captains Courageous and The Jungle Books, and Carrie gave birth to their first two children, Josephine and Elsie. The family moved to England in 1896 and settling in Rottingdean, Sussex the next year. Here their third child John was born. Unfortunately their daughter, Josephine, died during a family visit to the U.S. in 1899. Around this time Kipling was deemed the “Poet of Empire” and produced some his most memorable works, including Kim, Stalky & Co., and Just So Stories. In 1907, Kipling accepted the Nobel Prize for literature. In 1915, his son John died in the battle of Loos, during World War I. Kipling continued to write and became involved in the Imperial War Graves Commission. In January 1936, Kipling died, but not before the completion of his autobiography Something of Myself.
