The term, "ghetto" was originated in Venice. It was used to describe the segregated area that Jewish people were living. they were segregated and had to live in that area, not just by their own choice.

The term was adopted to mean walled-off sections of cities for any minority group.

In WWII, Poland had ghettos that housed Jewish people were set up by the Nazis. and people were not only housed there, but could go come and go freely.

In the U.S., as many immigrant waves went through, the minority immigrants tended to be poor and live in areas that had the same religion, ethnicity, or race as themselves. They used the term ghetto, as well. Today, ghetto is still used to describe areas of town that have mostly poor minority people living there.

Answer:

During the Harlem Renaissance African American’s had rights now but they were still treated poorly and had no respect from the whites. Booker T. Washington said that after the blacks prove that they are hardworking and helpful to whites America’s income that then they will be accepted and racism will fade. An Atlanta University professor named W.E.B. DuBois openly disagreed with this comment and he demanded things for the African American’s, like that whites and African American’s should have the same educational opportunities. This is when a man named Marcus Garvey decided to teach African American’s that black is beautiful, and that African American’s should embrace their heritage, culture, and race.

Describe two long term trends that have characterized the history of suffrage in the united states
kiruha [24]

Two long term trends that characterized the history of suffrage in the United States:

  1. Various restrictions on the right to vote were gradually eliminated.
  2. The federal government asserted authority over states in establishing laws regarding voting rights.

_________

<u>Explanation</u>

  1. At the start of American life, only white men could vote, and only those who owned property.  Some early voting laws set religious requirements also.  For example, the initial constitutions of Georgia and South Carolina required voters to be members of the Protestant faith.  The religious test was ended with the 1787 adoption of the US Constitution, which said, "No religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."   Over time, the requirements for property ownership were dropped within individual states' laws.  Eventually, also racial and gender restrictions were removed.  The 15th Amendment (1870) gave voting rights to non-white men after the Civil War.  The 19th Amendment (1920) gave voting rights to women after the First World War.
  2. The 15th and 19th Amendments as noted, serve as examples of a gradual  standardizing of voting rights across the country.  The authority of the US Constitution, constitutional amendments, and federal laws brought all states into line under the same guidelines.  Poll taxes that were targeted at keeping poor black Americans from voting were ruled unconstitutional by the 24th Amendment (1964). The Voting Rights Act of 1965 went further in protecting racial minorities from discriminatory practices in regard to voting.  The 26th Amendment (1971) gave all citizens 18 and older the right to vote, younger than many states previously allowed.  So the trend over time was a standardizing of voting practices nationwide.
