Why jesse owens made the right decision to compete in the berlin olympics?

History

Dmitrij [34]2 years ago
6 0

A quote from Time Magazine in 1980 when Owens died, "At the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, which Adolf Hitler hoped would be a showcase of Aryan supremacy, Owens won four gold medals in track and field events, a feat not equaled since. The sight of the graceful American's soaring victory in the long jump and his Olympic-record wins in the 100-and 200-meter dashes and 400-meter relay put the lie to der Führer's simplistic myths about race."

What was the significance of the plane selections made by the terrorists on 9/11
Eva8 [605]
What did the planes have in common? they were all domestic flights heading towards the West coast, which means that they would have a great amount of fuel on them: this would increase the explosion and fire after the crashes. This was a likely reason for those and not other planes being chosen.

LekaFEV [45]

Our federal government has three parts.

They are theExecutive, (President and about 5,000,000 workers)

Legislative (Senate and House of Representatives) and

Judicial (Supreme Court and lower Courts.)

The President of the United States administers the Executive Branch of our government. The President enforces the laws that the Legislative Branch (Congress) makes.

The Legislative part of our government is called Congress. Congress makes our laws. Congress is divided into 2 parts. One part is called the Senate the other is the House.

The Judicial part of our federal government includes theSupreme Court and 9 Justices. They are special judges who interpret laws according to the Constitution. These justices only hear cases that pertain to issues related to the Constitution. They are the highest court in our country. 

I hope this helps! :)

Despite the legal segregation, were african americans readily hired after executive order 9980? explain.
GREYUIT [131]

Despite the legal segregation African-Americans were not immediately and readily hired after Presidents Truman's executive order 9980. This was because most people from the south still bear grudges against the  abolitionism, Reconstruction and Abraham Lincoln.

<h3>What is an Executive Order?</h3>

An Executive order is a directive from the Executive branch of government which is deemed as legally binding without seeking backing from the legislative arm of government.

 

   An executive order carries the full weight of the law. The idea of executive order is to forestall any hindrance due to time constraint in seeking approval from the legislature.

<h3>What was Executive Order 9980</h3>

Executive Order 9980 authorized the establishment of review boards within federal executive departments and agencies to which employees claiming racially discriminatory treatment could appeal.

   This was one of the landmark achievements of president Harry Truman to end racial segregation in the military and  in federal workforce.

What role did Lenin and Stalin play in the conversion of Russia to the communist Soviet Union?
andrew-mc [135]
Vladimir Lenin was one of the most important members of the Bolshevik Party. The majority of the Russian Revolution and the need to implement a communist system was the responsibility of the Bolshevik Party. Once the revolution was successful, Lenin was looked to as the leader of the new communist state.

Stalin continued this communist system after Lenin was done being leader. Stalin's central planning system ensured that the Soviet Union's economy was controlled by the government, as well as the media outlets. This was especially true during World War II.
