Answer:

The statement is true. The people of the prosperous Khmer Empire practiced both Buddhism and Hinduism.

Explanation:

The Khmer Empire was born professing the Hindu religion and for that reason all the cosmology, the architecture, the customs and the conception of the sacred things were widely reflected in this religion, although it was not accepted to the caste concept, but to the brahmanism.

While the Empire was founded under the aegis of Hinduism and would continue to be present in culture until contemporary times, the Khmer Empire would soon see a new religion arrive, this time from Sri Lanka, the Theravada Buddhism during the thirteenth century. King Jayavarman VII was captivated by the teachings that were transmitted to him by the visiting monks of that country about the Buddha. Little by little all the subjects would follow him, but the Hindu elements would never disappear, creating a particular religious syncretism. During the reign of Jayavarman VIII at the end of the thirteenth century there was a brief reimplantation of the Hindu cult as a state religion.

One reason why the British soldiers fired on the Boston colonists during the Boston Massacre was because their were objects being thrown at them. These soldiers were harassed by an angry mob and hit by objects while protecting the Customs Office in Boston.

Another reason why the British soldiers fired on the colonists were because they were afraid of what might happen. Colonists, at this time, rebelled constantly against any symbol of the British government. This included tax collectors, who were tarred and feathered by colonists. These soldiers could have been worried that the colonists might attack them physically.

Explain the factors that contributed to the rise of the black power movement

deff fn [24]

Look up the racism throughout US history, the conditions of the slave trade were awful, hard hours in extreme heat, no breaks, and awful sexually abused as well as physical abuse from slave masters. Now fast forward past the American revolution. Abraham Lincoln said in his Gettysburg address “ four score and seven years ago our fathers brought fourth on this nation, a new nation conceived of liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal” racism against blacks started to deteriorate by the end of the 1800’s but was still largely prevalent. From the KKK still operating in the south, they still had little amount of human rights, as well as social rights. Referring to blacks as Racial slurs were still a thing. You have rebels of the slave trade like Harriet Tubman and Sujurnor Truth. Look up what they did. Then fast forward to Rosa parks who was a civil rights activist. In the time of segregation, She refused to give up her bus seat to a white man after being asked to do so. This was a brave act and statement towards civil rights of blacks. And then finally let’s finish off with Martin Luther King, and his speech “I have a dream” during his march on Washington. Not to mention the black panther organization later in the 60’s. Some of this is greatly felt today. This should answer your question.
