SCORPION-xisa [38]3 years ago
4 0

During the 1920s, many minority groups gained more prominence and independence than they had ever had in the past. Among African Americans, this led to a rediscovery of their African roots, as well as an artistic movement that attempted to create its own types of artistic expressions. Women were another group that benefitted, as many became more liberated, as well as more relevant in the public sphere.

Many people disliked such modern changes, particularly when it came to racial equality and social mobility. These people valued the ideas of race and class highly, and believed these to be the right way to organize the nation. Some of the ways in which these people attempted to regain control was by creating racist laws such as Jim Crow laws and segregation. They also formed groups such as the Ku Klux Klan in order to scare people into submission.

Why did the British sell opium to the Chinese
levacccp [35]

<u>Answer</u>:

The opium trade traffic grew in the western countries when Great Britain started growing opium in Indian land and sold it to China.  They made huge profits by selling opium to China, and used the profits to buy chinese luxury goods like porcelain, tea and silk, which were greatly demanded in the western countries.

Tobacco smoking had already spreaded over the North America to China, and then the trade of opium also increased. Also, in the 18th century, the portuguese colonists found the usefulness of tobacco and thought of selling opium to China with huge profit margins. The Britishers also cultivated opium in large quantities in Bengal which enables the cheap production and selling of opium and in abundance.
