History

-John Wycliffe directly challenged the Church and clergy, calling out the luxury and privilege they indulged in and categorizing them as sinners. According to him, it only made sense that <u>the entire clergy should give up all their property and live in poverty to right their wrongs</u>. The Council of Constance made a declaration on May 4th of 1415 that marked Wycliffe as a heretic and banned his writings.

-Jan Hus also attacked religious institutions for their moral failings. His efforts were centered around denouncing the Church's ethical abuse, and he set the seeds for the Reformation movement to come. After his condemnation and death, his following had become so large that most of the Czech population of the Kingdom of Bohemia represented <u>a powerful military force, battling and winning several crusades and revolts</u>.

-Joan of Arc went from a French peasant to leading armies in some of the biggest battles against England in the Hundred Years War. From an early age, she claimed to have visions of angels and saints who guided her, supporting her beliefs against torture that any exceptional person no matter what level of society they come from, can receive a divine calling. She shared the same fate as the previous 2 figures, as she was also tried for heresy and ended up being burnt at the stake.

could American Indians have done better in the face of European encroachment? If so, How could they have done better for themsel
Margarita [4]

American Indians had their own culture and philosophy. This understanding of the world as widely misunderstood by European settlers, who always saw Native Americans as an obstacle, or even menace to their expansionary interests.

Indians quickly understood the European settlers interests and in many cases adopted a stiff opposition and conflictive attitude towards them. This would eventually lead to memorable incidents, such as the Wounded Knee Massacre, where the US army killed numerous Indians due to a misunderstanding that escalated into a fight.

There was a clear lack of understanding between both parts and both of them have a degree of responsibility for it.

Which propaganda technique is being used when a political candidate says he stands for "peace, prosperity, and progress"?
REY [17]

Correct answer: GLITTERING GENERALITIES

Explanation:

As defined by Richard Nordquist, writing for ThoughtCo, "A glittering generality is a vague word or phrase used to evoke positive feelings rather than to convey information."

In the political candidate's promise, "peace, prosperity, and progress" are all vague terms, without specifying how exactly the candidate will work to achieve those goals.   Offering glittering generalities is not wrong, but if there are no concrete action plans or details provided, then the phrases are only propaganda.

As to the other items listed, here are quick definitions of how those forms of propaganda work:

  • Bandwagon = giving the impression that everyone else is jumping on board with this program or movement, so you don't want to miss out.
  • Card stacking = when a political candidate rehearses all his accomplishments but leaves out any items that would show his weaknesses or failures.
  • Plain folks = presenting oneself as a "regular guy" or gal, a person of the people, just like the average voter (even if that's not really true of the identify of the candidate)
