Answer:

Jefferson was right during his declaration of independence which included a grevance he held whereby he was blaming great britian for forcing slavery on the American colonies.

This is because, in the treaty signed which encouraged trade between Europe, Great britian and America, it was the suggestion of the pact that lead to goods bought in Africa to be exchanged for slaves who would be shipped to work in the plantation farms outside the Afrcan continent or in the local industries. The triangular trade among this three continent work like this:

<em>Great Britian purchase slaves from Africa in exchange for the goods the gave them. The slaves would be put in the ships and moved to America where their is demand for labour for agricultural cultivation. </em>

<em>Once the ship arrived in the Americas, generally somewhere in the Caribbean, the slaves were unloaded, and sold to be used as laborers on large plantations. The money the ships got from slaves was used to purchase the agricultural products that the slaves were actually harvesting; things like tobacco, molasses, and sugar. </em>

<em>Those raw products from the Americas were shipped to Europe, the third leg of the triangular trade, where Europeans processed the raw supplies and made finished products. </em>

Which of the following Supreme Court cases ruled that school sponsored prayer by clergy at a graduation was unconstitutional? En

anastassius [24]

Althought every case presented in the options was about an aspect of religion in schools the one which ruled that school sponsored prayer by clergy at a graduation was unscontitutional is <em>"Lee v. Weisman"</em> .

It was the first major school prayer case decided by the Rehnquist court on the year 1992.

<h3> <u>Context</u></h3>

Robert E. Lee was the principal of Nathan Bishop Middle School in Providence, Rhode Island. He invited a rabbi to present a prayer at the 1989 graduation ceremony, Deborah Weisman was a student from that class and her parents requested a temporary injunction to ban the rabbi´s presentation. At first instance the Rhode Island court denied the Weisman´s motion, nevertheless the Wesiman family still attended to the graduation and the rabbi gave his speech.

The Weisman family continued their litigation after the graduation and won in the First Circuit Court of Appeals. The argument of the family was an interpretation of the <em>"Establishment clause"</em> that sustained the free excercise of religion throughout the country and prohibit the congress to sanction a law about establishing a determinated religion. The interpretation which the family and the Supreme Court held was a broad interpretation.

After having lost in the First Circuit Court of Appeals the school district appealed to the Supreme Court under the argument that the prayer was nonsectarian and doubly voluntary, Deborah was free not to stand for the prayer and the participation in the ceremony wasn´t obligatory neither.

<h3> <u>Decision</u> </h3>

On june 24, 1992 the decision was announced and, as I wrote in the last paragraph, it was a win for the Weisman family as the Court accept the arguements presented by them and reject the ones presented by the school district making special emphasis on the one which said that the attend of Deborah to the graduation was voluntary:

<em>"To say a teenage student has a real choice not to attend her high school graduation is formalistic in the extreme. True, Deborah could elect not to attend commencement without renouncing her diploma; but we shall not allow the case to turn on this point. Everyone knows that, in our society and in our culture, high school graduation is one of life's most significant occasions. A school rule which excuses attendance is beside the point. Attendance may not be required by official decree, yet it is apparent that a student is not free to absent herself from the graduation exercise in any real sense of the term "voluntary," for absence would require forfeiture of those intangible benefits which have motivated the student through youth and all her high school years" </em>Anthony Kennedy.

I hope that the answer is correct and helps you. Regards

What was an immediate consequence or a fact of the day for the United States

drek231 [11]

The war would not be over by Christmas. But D-Day had opened another major front, where the bulk of America's rapidly expanding army could at last be brought to bear. It led to the liberation of France, denying Germany any further exploitation of that country's economic and manpower resources.

How did Stalin’s death affect the USSR and Eastern Europe?

galben [10]

Tremendously. Stalin was the USSR everything it was up to his death he had built. But not without getting a lot of hatred on the way. Following his death Soviet leaders had years or "de-stalinization" basically undoing everything he had done. Which lead to the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990. After the dissolution of the Soviet union other areas that were claimed by the Soviet Union became independent.

Which of these BEST describes why Georgia was important to United States during World War I?

astraxan [27]

At the beginning of World War I the United Statesdid not want to participate in the war. US President at the time Woodrow Wilson was very strong on the believe that the United States should keep its neutrality. Eventually, the United States was not able to maintain that neutrality and in April 6th, 1917, there was an official declaration of war on Germany thus affirming the United States entrance into World War I.

At the beginning of the war and for almost two years, just about all newspapers in Georgia had articles describing the negative consequences of the war for the State´s economic situation. Suddenly, there was a complete turn around on the position of the newspapers, and almost immediately they were in favor of the war effort, and all the articles became very patriotic and anti German.

Georgia was very important for the war effort between 1917 and 1918 because the State had many training camps, which were federal installations and they facilitated the formation of qualified men to the war. D will be the correct answer. The State contributed with more than 100 thousand men and women on behalf of the United States.
