Answer:

Answered below.

Explanation:

Our history of racial segregation and inequality is shameful and cannot be celebrated. Ownership of slaves, making slaves work in cotton fields and other hard labour, oppression of blacks and other minority ethnic groups in the early days of our country, civil rights abuses and discrimination and ultimately the civil war, are all shameful events in our history.

The arrests and dehumanisation of Americans of Japanese ethnicity after the Pearl Harbour attacks, locking them away in inhumane camps and denying their rights to freedom was another event in our history which was shameful and not representative of the freedom and democracy which we stand for.

Thankfully a lot has changed since these periods, but we must do more to continue to protect our democracy and freedom.

Which of these were challenges in England during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries? Check all that apply.
Agata [3.3K]

In my view, only the black plague and class inequality.

<u>The Black Death was a disease of the rat flea that spread and devastated Europe in the fourteenth century, but reached England again in the second outbreak in the sixteenth century. </u>

The world wars happened in the twentieth century, so they are not an answer.

Unemployment and lack of manpower are the opposite of each other, but none have actually reached England. First, because the population of that time was basically rural and lived subsistence. The event of the Industrial Revolution caused a great demand by manpower, that was satisfied by the peasant class, that migrated to the city.

<u>However, class inequality has always been present. This comes from the age of feudalism, but it grew especially during the Industrial Revolution, which produced a capitalist bourgeoisie and a mass that worked in factories for low wages and abusive hours.</u>

HELPPP! 25 POINTS AND MARKING BRAINLIEST IF RIGHT!!

I would definitely say that this is the first option: Teenagers' concerns about appearance can affect their feelings about themselves. 
Why do I think this? Well let me explain. In the first passage, the person specifically prays for the boy they fell in love with, as well as a new nose. That would indicate that they aren't happy with the way they look. 
Now onto the second passage. Alfonso believes that he has to be in amazing shape to get the girls in "cut offs" to notice him, and to think that he's strong and handsome. He wants them to think that he's capable of handling himself, no matter the circumstances. It also states that he hates the way he looks. He's insecure about what he looks like. 
I hope that this helps you.
