Define Jim Crow and briefly explain its importance in American history

English
1 answer:
Yanka [14]3 years ago
7 0

Jim Crow laws were a collection of state and local statutes that legalized racial segregation.

Jim Crow laws were based on the theory of white supremacy and were a reaction to Reconstruction. In the depression-racked 1890s, racism appealed to whites who feared losing their jobs to blacks.

Why were English writings against the law in Catholic Spain?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

English anti-Catholicism was grounded in the fear that the Pope sought to reimpose not just religio-spirtual authority but also secular power over England, a view which was vindicated by hostile actions of the Vatican.

Explain what Pirsig meant with his river metaphor in paragraph 16.
nika2105 [10]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question is related, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

It is only possible to analyze and describe the meaning of the metaphor by reading the text. However, I can inform you that a metaphor is a figure of speech that presents the comparison between two elements that have a certain relationship. This comparison causes one element to transfer its meaning to the other element. An example of this is the phrase "that boy is a monster" where the terms "boy" and "monster" are compared, but the term "monster" transfers its meaning to the term "boy", conveying the meaning that the boy is unpleasant, violent and frightening. To answer your question, you need to identify the metaphor and be able to make that kind of association between the two terms compared.

what is the author seeking to show in this section about the social movement underlying the protests in standing rock
Kipish [7]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for this question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The protests at Standing Rock aimed to prevent the destruction of historic and sacred sites for North American indigenous peoples. These protests triggered a series of adjacent movements that sought protection not only for indigenous rights, but addressed themes such as religion, historical protection of a country, suppression of cultures, imperialism, among others.

These movements show that when a right is suppressed, a series of social elements are hurt and questioned.
