Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Enlightenment changed people's ideas about government.  People questioned: Are people born with special rights that must be respected?

Should citizens have more say in what their govt. does?

Does the people have the right to overthrow an unjust govt?

Explanation:

The Glorious Revolution ended the Dominion of New England in 1689

Aneli [31]

Answer and Explanation:

1. You did not inform the document to which the question refers, but in view of the other questions we can infer that the documentary announces the life of Carmen Miranda.

2. Carmen Miranda was born in Portugual, but was raised in Brazil, a place she considered her true homeland.

3. During the 20th century, Brazil received immigrants from all over the world, but mainly from Europe, the Middle East and Japan.

4. Carmem Miranda grew up listening to popular Brazilian music like samba and bossa nova.

5. Carmen Miranda had the ability to incorporate all popular Brazilian rhythms and maintain the characteristics of Brazil in a commercial and completely international music. She was able to convey the joy, rhythm and animation of the Brazilian people in a very genuine, correct and respectable way.

6. She wore a flowing dress and a fruit-hat turban. This can be considered cultural appropriation because it is a traditional clothing worn by black women in Bahia, a Brazilian state. Carmen Miranda was neither Bahian nor black, but she was using something completely intrinsic to that culture.

7. She went to New York, where she performed on Broadway.

8. She said that she knew very little of the English language and that she could speak some 20 words, among them: money and hot-dog.

9. She stated that she was not "Americanized" and that she was still as Brazilian as anyone who was born in the country. She said that, because Brazilian criticism used to call her that, something she didn't like.

10. Carmen Miranda used to play roles of colorful, loud and loud Latin women that attracted a lot of attention. This can be problematic in two ways. Firstly, this reinforced stereotypes of Latin women, especially Brazilian women. Secondly, it limited her as an actress and hindered her from expanding the talent she possessed.
