Why was racism so big during colonial era and the Age of Reason?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Racism in the United States has existed since the colonial era, when white Americans were given legally or socially sanctioned privileges and rights while these same rights were denied to other races and minorities. European Americans — particularly affluent white Anglo-Saxon Protestants — enjoyed exclusive privileges in matters of education, immigration, voting rights, citizenship, land acquisition, and criminal procedure throughout American history. Non-Protestant immigrants from Europe, particularly Irish people, Poles, and Italians, often suffered xenophobic exclusion and other forms of ethnicity-based discrimination in American society until the late 19th century and early 20th century. In addition, groups like Jews and Arabs have faced continuous discrimination in the United States, and as a result, some people who belong to these groups do not identify as white. East, South, and Southeast Asians have similarly faced racism in America.

Major racially and ethnically structured institutions include slavery, segregation, Native American reservations, Native American boarding schools, immigration and naturalization laws, and internment camps. Formal racial discrimination was largely banned in the mid-20th century and it came to be perceived as being socially and morally unacceptable. Racial politics remains a major phenomenon, and racism continues to be reflected in socioeconomic inequality. Racial stratification continues to occur in employment, housing, education, lending, and government.

In the view of the United Nations and the U.S. Human Rights Network, "discrimination in the United States permeates all aspects of life and extends to all communities of color." While the nature of the views held by average Americans has changed significantly over the past several decades, surveys by organizations such as ABC News have found that even in modern America, large sections of Americans admit to holding discriminatory viewpoints. For example, a 2007 article by ABC stated that about one in ten admitted to holding prejudices against Hispanic and Latino Americans and about one in four did so regarding Arab-Americans. A 2018 YouGov/Economist poll found that 17% of Americans oppose interracial marriage, with 19% of members of "other" ethnic groups, 18% of blacks, 17% of whites, and 15% of Hispanics opposing it.

Why has the meaning of the phrase “all men are created equal” changed over the years?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

the phrase began to change, like when the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendment became, that made a big change in the meaning of the phrase because now, slaves were free and had rights and were able to vote. Just like women had became able to when it use to be only the white men who were allowed to.

Tensions leading up to world war ii can lead to which of the following?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer regarding a cause of tension leading into World War II:

C. Japan began establishing an empire by attacking and conquering its neighbors.

Context/detail:

The conflicts that became part of World War II actually began earlier than the 1939 start of the war in Europe.  In Asia, Japan was beginning its imperial conquests before Hitler and Germany began expanding into Czechoslovakia and invading Poland.   Japan invaded the Chinese territory of Manchuria in 1931.  

The League of Nations condemned Japan in 1933 for the events in Manchuria, but that did little to stop Japan.  Japan withdrew from the League of Nations at that time, and by 1937 began further invasions into Chinese territory.  Japan's imperial ambitions even reached the point of genocidal acts such as the massacre at Nanking in 1937-1938.  

When Japan moved into French Indochina in 1941, the USA froze all Japanese financial assets in the USA and placed an embargo on all oil and gasoline shipments to Japan.  The Japanese viewed the embargo as an act of war, and their attack against the US at Pearl Harbor was (from their viewpoint) a response to US trade sanctions against them.
