Explain why you think it has been so difficult for African-Americans to become principal owners of professional sports teams.

History
1 answer:
andre [41]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Racism and bias against African-Americans caused many white sports players to refuse African-Americans as owners of their teams. Many people, especially white southerners, found it hard to believe black people were capable of owning professional jobs such as sports teams, so they had no support from anyone in owning those teams.

Explanation:

When Jackie Robinson signed with the Dodgers, many of his teammates doubted him because he was black, so he had to work extra hard to gain recognition in the team.

What political promise made Mussolini and his fascist party popular in the 1920's?
JulsSmile [24]
I would say his popularity came from his pledge to restore 'order' in the country which was plagued by mass unemployment and strikes by socialists and communists. His blackshirts beat up socialists and communists. Obviously the socialists and communists opposed his rise as did many other working class people. Some of the middle class shopkeepers, doctors, lawyers etc worried about the rise of socialism in the new Soviet Union also supported him.
