Answer/Explanation:

“Gaining traction”, as used in the quoted statement of William A. Darity Jr., means <em>becoming more popular as well as being supported widely.</em>  

In his statement regarding the arguments that support the restitution of ill treatment and injustice towards black Americans, most especially during the slave trade era, in an attempt to promote equity, he remarked that <em>this argument is beginning to “gain grounds” simply as a result of technology today</em>. Technology has helped in the push for reparation as information is very fast to disseminate today, people can easily check up histories and facts regarding slave trade, and thereby making more people far and wide to lend their support and voices.

THIRTY POINTS HELP Which best explains the outcome of the 1828 presidential election?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: John Quincy Adams was such a popular president that Andrew Jackson lost despite running a strong campaign.

Explanation: The 1828 United States presidential election was the 11th quadrennial presidential election. It was held from Friday, October 31 to Tuesday, December 2, 1828. It featured a re-match of the 1824 election, as President John Quincy Adams of the National Republican Party faced Andrew Jackson of the Democratic Party. Both parties were new organizations, and this was the first presidential election their nominees contested. Jackson's victory over Adams marked the start of Democratic dominance in federal politics. With the collapse of the Federalist Party, four members of the Democratic-Republican Party, including Jackson and Adams, had sought the presidency in the 1824 election. Jackson had won a plurality (but not majority) of both the electoral vote and popular vote in the 1824 election
