History

trapecia [35]3 years ago

Answer:  The site of the first women's rights convention in history.

The national meeting in Seneca Falls, New York, in 1848, was the first women's rights convention to be held in the United States, and was organized by women.  Elizabeth Cady Stanton was one of the principal organizers of the gathering, and also was the lead author of an important document issued by what we now call the "Seneca Falls Convention."  The <em>Declaration of Sentiments</em> was signed by 68 women and 32 men who had been among the participants in the convention. The document was modeled after Thomas Jefferson's <em>Declaration of Independence.</em>  In the way that Jefferson had listed grievances against the British monarchy, the <em>Declaration of Sentiments</em> listed grievances against how man had oppressed woman in regard to civil rights.  Here's a small sample of some of the "sentiments" which were expressed:

<em>The history of mankind is a history of repeated injuries and usurpation on the part of man toward woman, having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world:</em>

  • <em>He has not ever permitted her to exercise her inalienable right to the elective franchise.</em>
  • <em>He has compelled her to submit to laws, in the formation of which she had no voice.</em>
  • <em>He has withheld her from rights which are given to the most ignorant and degraded men—both natives and foreigners.</em>
  • <em>Having deprived her of this first right as a citizen, the elective franchise, thereby leaving her without representation in the halls of legislation, he has oppressed her on all sides.</em>

Read this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence:
Tatiana [17]

Correct answer (as you noted): B. Citizens must be allowed to overthrow a government that does not protect rights.

Explanation/details:  

In writing the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson drew from the ideas of 17th century philosopher John Locke.  Locke favored the idea of a "social contract."  According to his view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed.  This was a change from the previous ideas of "divine right monarchy" -- that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler.  

Locke repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his<em> First Treatise on Civil Government</em>.   In his <em>Second Treatise on Civil Government</em>, Locke argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting their own life, liberty, and property.   Locke argued that the people always remain in charge, and asserted that the people have the power to change their government and remove government leaders if the government is not properly serving the needs and well-being of the people.  The Declaration of Independence applied these ideas specifically to the situation between the American colonists and government by Britain that was not properly serving their needs.

After the opening section of the Declaration of Independence (from which your question quoted), Jefferson went on to provide a list of "facts to be submitted to a candid world."  He listed grievances of the colonists which  demonstrated that the British king had been seeking to establish "an absolute Tyranny over these States" (the colonial states which were declaring their independence).  Because tyranny was standard operating procedure by the British monarchy, the colonists believed they were justified in establishing their independence from Britain.

In one paragraph, describe the evolution of The Hitler Youth in Germany. Explain how this started off as something fun and moved
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The Hitler Youth programs were put into place to demonstrate that Hitler cared about the well being of Germany and its people so it started as a way too attracted and entice the youth into joining. While Hitler gained more control, he started spreading more of his hateful ideas which was slowly integrated into the Hitler Youth Programs as a way to slowly brainwash the kids. With time the programs focused mainly on ingraining those hateful ideas into the next generation. The group of children would later become the next set of Nazi soldiers who would gladly fight for Hitler because they grew up learning to hate all in those Hitler Youth Programs.

(tco 1) despite a disputed 2000 presidential election, once president george w. bush took office, few people doubted his _____.
Anna [14]
Few people doubted his legitimacy. Legitimacy in this issue isn't characterized by the mainstream vote, vote tallies, our outrage or individuals quibbling about how the procedure turned out badly. It's characterized by a legitimate procedure that — regardless of the possibility that we contend about regardless of whether the Supreme Court settled on the morally remedy choice—was lawful and inside their domain. He promised of office, the Congress and Executive branch perceived that and hence he was the true blue POTUS. Suppositions on this issue are as unessential as sentiments on the presence of gravity.

Most archaeological digs are financed by _________?
olganol [36]

Answer:

Most archaeological digs are financed by B. organizations that support academic endeavors.

Explanation:

First of all, archeological digs are a source of disciplinary research. They take part in many other studies to prove theories experts formulate. And even though they are cheaper than biological or engineering studies they are less popular, supported and promoted.

It is not because they are not important, because they are. But because there are not the same amount of organizations that impulse them. In other words, they don't have as many benefactors as studies from different disciplines.

To finish, Archeological studies depend on many times in foundations, governments or cultural enrichment movements that look for their development and execution. Many times it involves museums, associations and celebrities, politicians or royalty.
