History

DedPeter [7]3 years ago

The right answer is the A: Symbolic and industrial.

<em>Song of the Towers </em>is one in the series of mural paintings <em>Aspects of Negro Life </em>(1934), created by African American artist Aaron Douglas (1900-1979), a great figure of the Harlem Renaissance. The murals trace the history of African Americans, up to their migration from the South to the North of the United States.

The mural is complex both in its formal aspects and in its meaning. A series of concentric circles and protruding and monumental prisms occupy the center of the composition, providing a lively and monumental frame to a jazz musician who is actively playing his saxophone. The Statue of Liberty is behind him, in the background. Although these symbolic elements seem to celebrate and relate African American heritage and culture and national identity, the images of two smoking factories and part of what it looks like a massive piece of industrial equipment, together with those of two exhausted African American workers, speak of the difficulties that African Americans encountered in those cities that promised progress and hope for the future.

Which of the following best explains why Georgia's capital moved throughout history?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The caravan was ready to move out. The wagons were lined up. The mood was somber. One who was there reported that "there was a silence and stillness of the voice that betrayed the sadness of the heart." Behind them the makeshift camp where some had spent three months of a Tennessee summer was already ablaze. There was no going back.

A white-haired old man, Chief Going Snake, led the way on his pony, followed by a group of young men on horseback. Just as the wagons moved off along the narrow roadway, they heard a sound. Although the day was bright, there was a black thundercloud in the west. The thunder died away and the wagons continued their long journey westward toward the setting sun. Many who heard the thunder thought it was an omen of more trouble to come.¹

This is the story of the removal of the Cherokee Nation from its ancestral homeland in parts of North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama to land set aside for American Indians in what is now the state of Oklahoma. Some 100,000 American Indians forcibly removed from what is now the eastern United States to what was called Indian Territory included members of the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole tribes. The Cherokee's journey by water and land was over a thousand miles long, during which many Cherokees were to die. Tragically, the story in this lesson is also one of conflict within the Cherokee Nation as it struggled to hold on to its land and its culture in the face of overwhelming force.

The Trail of Tears National Historic Trail commemorates the removal of the Cherokee and the paths that 17 Cherokee detachments followed westward. It also promotes a greater awareness of the Trail's legacy and the effects of the United States' policy of American Indian removal not only on the Cherokee, but also on other tribes, primarily the Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek, and Seminole.

Which of the following actions are tangible evidence the federal government at work? Select all that apply.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
<span>Good Morning!
 
The answer is clearly "print money". Only the federal government has the authorization to print and produce coins, thus, acting in the economy only in order to promote its functioning. Any other state presence in the economy ends up interfering with the functioning of the so-called "free market".

Answer:

> The correct answer choice would be the last one.

Explanation:

> In 1929, the Stock Markets began to inflate due to mass amounts of people buying in. A brief explanation of Stock Markets is as follows;

• As people buy into the stock market, they pay the current value of it. As they buy into it, the Market increases by the amount it cost to investor.

• When somebody sells, they get the money that the Market currently is worth, and the market value goes down by that margin.

• If too many people buy into a Market, it will will inflate, and current/past investors will get more than their money’s worth in the Market. This is what happened in 1929, leading the Stock prices into a sky high margin.

• Nowadays, this doesn’t happen much, and only does so on much smaller scales. More research could find a couple times when this has happened on large scales.


> As is stated above, in 1929, the Stock Market values skyrocketed due to mass amounts of people buying in.


> This supports our anser as being D) Many investors were buying stocks on margin.


> One last time, the correct answer to this question is the last one. I hope this helped answer your question, and solve any other queries you may have had on the subject. #LearningWithBrainly
