<span>Salutary neglect was an undocumented, 'though long-standing, the British policy of avoiding strict enforcement of parliamentary laws, meant to keep the American colonies obedient to Great Britain. Prime Minister Robert Walpole stated that "If no restrictions were placed on the colonies, they would flourish"[citation needed]. This policy, which lasted from about 1607 to 1763, allowed the enforcement of trade relations laws to be lenient. Walpole did not believe in enforcing the Navigation Acts, established under Oliver Cromwell and Charles II and designed to force the colonists to trade only with England, Scotland and Ireland,which were also under Britain's control. Successive British governments ended this policy through acts such as the Stamp Act and Sugar Act, causing tensions within the colonies.
Salutary neglect occurred in three time periods. From 1607 to 1696, England had no coherent imperial policy. From 1696 to 1763, England (and after 1707 Britain) tried to form a coherent policy (navigation acts) but did not enforce it. Lastly, from 1763 to 1775 Britain began to try to use a coherent policy.
Salutary neglect was a large contributing factor that led to the American Revolutionary War. Since the imperial authority did not assert the power that it had, the colonists were left to govern themselves. These essentially sovereign colonies soon became accustomed to the idea of self-control. The effects of such prolonged isolation eventually resulted in the emergence of a collective identity that considered itself separate from Great Britain.
The turning point from salutary neglect to an attempt enforce British policies was the Seven Years' War (French and Indian War). Great Britain was fighting France for imperial control of the known world (including North America, where the war was started and was losing very badly until Secretary of State William Pitt took charge. To help the war Britain toward the Colonists. These tensions caused England to abandon its policy of salutary neglect, which led directly to the American Revolution.</span>
For the question given above, the answer is TRUE. Jim Crow laws made "separate but equal" legal and provided legal oppression of blacks.
<span>After the 1896 Plessy v. Ferguson decision, segregation became even more ensconced through a battery of Southern laws and social customs known as “Jim Crow.” Schools, theaters, restaurants, and transportation cars were segregated. Poll taxes, literacy requirements, and grandfather clauses not only prevented blacks from voting, but also made them ineligible to serve on jury pools or run for office.</span>
Hard to say which research organizations were specifically mentioned in the unit you took with your teacher, so we'll trust the other respondent here that says it was Harris and Gallup.
Pew is a research organization also. The Census is not -- that's a US government function conducted every 10 years.
Let me give you some detail about each of the research organizations. I'll do so in alphabetical order.
Gallup, Inc. was founded by George Gallup in New Jersey in 1935, then called The American Institute of Public Opinion. Current headquarters of the Gallup organization are in Washington, DC, with over 30 offices located around the world. Gallup says that it "delivers analytics and advice to help leaders and organizations solve their most pressing problems," and claims that it "has more data and insights on the attitudes and behaviors of employees, customers, students and citizens than any other organization in the world."
Harris Insight & Analytics, headquartered in Rochester NY, conducts The Harris Poll, which was begun in 1963. The Harris Poll describes itself (on its website) as "one of the longest running surveys in the U.S. tracking public opinion, motivations and social sentiment." The stated mission of The Harris Poll is "to reveal the authentic values of modern society to inspire leaders to create a better tomorrow."
Pew Research Center, established in 2004, is headquartered in Washington DC. The Pew Research Center describes itself as "a nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes and trends shaping the world." Pew Research conducts "public opinion polling, demographic research, content analysis and other data-driven social science research."
