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.

Answer:

 School uniforms keep students from expressing their selves.  Adults believe that if students have uniforms that it can keep them under control but if you listen to the students they reject the idea of uniforms.  By allowing your students to have free dress this allows them a small amount of freedom which would in case make them respect their leaders and teachers.  Just the simple fact of allowing them to wear something they enjoy allows them to show how they feel which could also help the teachers get to know their students.  To all of the antagonist who believe uniforms are good things take this into thought.

Answer:

The valley of ashes between West Egg and New York City consists of a long stretch of desolate land created by the dumping of industrial ashes. It represents the moral and social decay that results from the uninhibited pursuit of wealth, as the rich indulge themselves with regard for nothing but their own pleasure. The valley of ashes also symbolizes the plight of the poor, like George Wilson, who live among the dirty ashes and lose their vitality as a result.
