Answer:

the abolition of slavery

Explanation:

The Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States ('Amendment XIII') officially abolished and continues to prohibit slavery in the United States of America, and, with limited exceptions (such as those convicted of a crime) prohibited involuntary servitude.

At the time of ratification, slavery remained legal only in Delaware, Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland and New Jersey. In the rest of the United States slaves had been released by state action and the "Emancipation Proclamation" of the federal government.

Abraham Lincoln (who had promulgated the Proclamation) and others were concerned that the Emancipation Proclamation would be seen as a temporary measure only during the American Civil War, and, therefore, in addition to the liberation of slaves in those states where slavery It was still legal, they supported the Amendment as a means of guaranteeing the permanent abolition of slavery.

Are people racially profiled by the Police? why or why not, explain please
Kobotan [32]
Racial Profiling" refers to the discriminatory practice by law enforcement officials of targeting individuals for suspicion of crime based on the individual's race, ethnicity, religion or national origin. Criminal profiling, generally, as practiced by police, is the reliance on a group of characteristics they believe to be associated with crime. Examples of racial profiling are the use of race to determine which drivers to stop for minor traffic violations (commonly referred to as "driving while black or brown"), or the use of race to determine which pedestrians to search for illegal contraband.

For much of the Middle Ages, both popes and kings claimed the authority to appoint high church officials. In 1076, Pope Gregory
Art [367]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Henry IV appeared before Pope Gregory VII to ask for his forgiveness.

Explanation:

In the 10th century, the emperor had gradually acquired a say in the appointment of bishops in the Holy Roman Empire. This was not very surprising, because the emperor often entrusted lordship, political and even military tasks to the bishops.

The battle really broke out in 1075 between Emperor Henry IV and Pope Gregory VII. On the one hand, the Pope interfered in the Saxon wars, undermining royal authority, and on the other, the appointment of a bishop of Milan by Henry IV was the last straw.

The king organized a meeting of bishops at which Pope Gregory VII was deposed. In response, Gregory excommunicated the king, as well as his allies. This put Henry in a difficult position, because a number of German bishops turned against him and some princes threatened to do the same. Henry then made a penance to Canossa in 1077, where he showed himself willing to submit to the Pope, who finally pardoned him.
