How might fighting discrimination in South Africa have influenced Gandhi when he returned to India?

History
1 answer:
blagie [28]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:Gandhi was born in the upper-middle class, which by all standards must have had some privileges even under the British domain. In South Africa he faced another reality, where Indians were treated as inferior as a collectivity regardless of their caste. It is perhaps faced with this discrimination that Gandhi developed his ideas on the treatment of the untouchable. The book doesn't mention, but in South Africa, Gandhi acted as a representative of Indian traders, who were Upper-Middle class and faced the attacks of South African whites precisely because of their wealth. South Africans were hostile with these wealthy immigrants. However, it was in South Africa that Gandhi tried his ideas of civil disobedience and nonviolence.

yawa3891 [41]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Evaluate the extent to which the progressive movement fostered political change in the united states from 1890 to 1920.

During a time of many changes in the conformation of the United States, the Progressive movement from 1890 to 1920 was a period where reformations accomplished many things that the American people needed. The most important: to modernize a federal government that needed a "shake and some cleaning," and reformations that improved education and promoted suffrage for women in America. Many journalists started to investigate corruption cases in the government and exposed them in their newspapers. The passage of the 18th Amendment to the United States Constitution was another important piece of legislation in the Progressive Era.

The League of Nations
Misha Larkins [42]

The League of Nations was an international organization established in 1920, aimed at providing collective security in the international community to maintain world peace.

Further details about the League of Nations:

The United States never joined the League of Nations, in spite of the fact that an organization such as the League of Nations was the signature idea of US President Woodrow Wilson.  He had laid out 14 Points for establishing and maintaining world peace following the Great War (World War I).  Point #14 was the establishment of an international peacekeeping association. The Treaty of Versailles adopted that idea, but back home in the United States, there was not support for involving America in any association that could diminish US sovereignty over its own affairs or involve the US again in wars beyond those pertinent to the United States' own national security.   The lack of involvement by the world's fastest-growing superpower, the United States, hampered its effectiveness.

The League of Nations had set out clear goals for what it intended to do. The main aims of the League were disarmament across nations, preventing war through collective security of the international community, settling disputes between countries through negotiation, and improving welfare of people around the globe.  But it proved unable to meet those goals.  The United Nations today has similar goals, and has been more effective in its efforts -- though there are still plenty of people who criticize the UN's effectiveness.

How did the Compromise of 1850 address the question of slavery in Washington, D.C.?
valkas [14]

Answer:

As a result of the Compromise of 1850, slavery continued in Washington DC, but slave trading was banned.

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1850 was a set of legislative initiatives carried out in the United States in 1850 to resolve a series of tensions arising with the colonization of California, driven by the so-called gold fever, and by annexation of territories after the US intervention in Mexico (1846-1848), which gave rise to territorial conflicts and the discussion about the legality of slavery in the new states.  

In addition to admitting California as a free state and Utah and New Mexico as slave states, the sale of slaves, though not slavery, was banned in Washington DC as part of the Compromise of 1850.
