Answer:

b. ...a stereotypical caricature of African-American culture for white audiences.  

Explanation:

         Minstrelsy is a minstrel show in America which was performed in the early 19th century. It was a source of entertainment for the American people in those times.

         Minstrel shows in America, for all its popularity and lighthearted humor, was an exploitative form of drama and musical theater which exaggerated the real-life circumstances and was supported by the dangerous stereotypes of the black African-Americans during the period of 19th and 20th centuries.

         Each show in the form of dance and music shows the stereotype view of the African-American culture to the whites.

Hence the correct option is -- (b)

Hy is it important for the ALSA management team to understand the importance of social media in their work?
Komok [63]

It is important for the ALSA management team to understand the importance of social media in their work because they had their most successful fundraiser thanks to social media. The Ice Bucket challenge raised $115 million in just a little more than one month.  

This challenge began to spread massively after celebrities started to participate in the activity of dumping buckets of ice water over their heads and making donations to increase worldwide awareness on the ALS disease.  

The videos shared on social media became viral and more than 17 million people were part of it. The ALSA organization sent an email to 60,000 people on their mailing list, but the movement developed mostly on its own.

The ALSA management team also understood that the impact of repeating the event next year would not be the same. However, they can still make annual events thanks to the 2014 popular event.

victus00 [196]

The correct answer is, let’s take the cases of Mexico and Argentina.

Mexico has had a major change of power in the presidency in the last elections of 2018, with the victory of a left-sided party called MORENA. The Revolutionary Party (PRI) governed the country for 70 years. It lost the presidency for the first time in 2000 to the right-sided party called National Action (PAN). In 2012, and due to the bad conditions of the country, official national party PRI won again and had 6 disastrous years that made people angry. Andres Manuel Lopez from MORENA left-sided party won the elections in 2018 with a record-setting 53% of the votes.  

The case of Argentina is more critical. The economic situation is very poor and people is getting angry. Since 1991 that the Argentina peso pegged the dollar, things have been worse. President Carlos Menem had two terms both the economic conditions did not improve. The next presidents, Fernando de la Rua and Nestor Kirchner couldn’t do so much and the economy stayed in recession. In a controversial decision, Cristina Kirchnner, wife of former president Nestor, won the election and at the end of her tenure, she was accused of mismanaging of national resources. Mauricio Macri is the actual President and has taken controversial measures that had reduced the money in people’s pockets.

Describe two important functions of political parties in united states elections
vivado [14]
Political parties perform an important task in government. They bring people together to achieve control of the government, develop policies favorable to their interests or the groups that support them, and organize and persuade voters to elect their candidates to office. Although very much involved in the operation of government at all levels, political parties are not the government itself, and the Constitution makes no mention of them.<span>
