Answer:

Blacke felt uncomfortable and sad about child labor.

Explanation:

The poem shows a sad situation for children who are exploited because of work. The poet shows a melancholy reality that tries to make the reader understand that the work these children are subjected to is something very uncomfortable and extremely sad.

On the lines "¨Could scarcely cry ¨Weep! Weep! Weep! Weep! ¨ So your chimneys I sweep, and in soot I sleep." the author shows how unhappy these children were and shows all their discontent with this reality.

In the lines "That thousands of sweepers, D, Joe, Ned, and Jack, Were all of them locked up in coffins of black," he shows how these children were doomed to die and missed a lifetime of opportunity.

amendment ix - the enumeration in the constitution of certain rights shall not be constructed to deny or disparage others retain
Masteriza [31]

The constitution of the United states was signed on September 17th, 1787, in Philadelphia. This documents establishes America's national government and fundamental laws.

In the United States Constitution, the ninth amendment, or IX amendment, reads the following statement: "The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people".

This amendment is related to the compromise that was reached in the Virginia Ratifying Convention. It basically means that any amendments that limit the power of the Congress, shouldn't be a reason to expand or extend their power. James Madison was the person who introduced this amendment and explained he wrote it as a cautionary measure, to put limitations to the power of the government.

The compromise reached in the Virginia Ratifying Convention, was the result of a debate between a group of people called the <u>Anti-Federalists</u> and another group of people called the <u>Federalists</u>. They disagreed about if there should or should not be a Bill of Rights in the Constitution. The Anti-federalists wanted  the Bill of Rights, but the Federalists worried that putting the Bill of Rights in the Constitution would give power to the government. They finally reached an agreement which is the IX Amendment.

An effect of the steamboat’s popularity was that...
Nonamiya [84]

An effect of the steamboat's popularity was that people began building canals in the United States and Europe. This was done to find another way to transport goods across the country and in that time, transportation using the river was very slow and dangerous. It depended entirely on manpower and the current of the river. That all changed in the late 1700's when steamboats were introduced. They soon revolutionized travel and trade through the river and dominated the waterways. Eventually, other means of transportation took over from the steamboats, but there was a time that they helped the United States to expand to the west.
