History
1 answer:
MrRa [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The quote means that the whites will never admit the issue of racism and discrimination that the blacks were treated with.

Explanation:

The given quote is spoken by Malcolm X, an African-American human rights activist, popular for his civil rights leadership. Amidst fighting for the rights and unity of the African-Americans, he was shot dead while giving a speech at the Audubon Ballroom in Washington Heights.

The given quote from the historical personality is a metaphorical expression of racism and the identity of Black nationalism. But at the same time, he propagated the idea of the blacks as being their own foe, and their need to be united if they were to achieve any civil rights for themselves. By suggesting that <em>"progress is healing the wound that the blow made"</em>, he is talking about the issue of racism that the whites had propagated, that the whites are superior to the blacks. His statement that<em> "they won't even admit the knife is there"</em> suggests that the whites won't admit racism is there, let alone accept the pain and discrimination they've been treated with. The knife here represents the racism, the prejudice against the blacks.

Answer:

The best answer would be B because everyone did school in some form.

Explanation:

New England Colonies, Public Schools: In the New England colonies, since most people lived in the towns, there were enough people to support a public school. Families helped to support the schools with firewood, money, food, produce, and fish. The children of families who could not afford to give firewood or something else to support the school and its teachers had to sit in the back of the room,as far away from heat as you could get. Kids were taught reading, writing, and arithmetic.  

The Middle Colonies, Church Schools: The Middle Colonies enjoyed religious tolerance. But, children went to church schools rather than public schools, so they were also taught religion based on the church school they attended. If you couldn't afford to pay for your child's education, then you couldn't. Children were not treated any differently whether their parents paid for their education or not. The Middle Colonies were known as the bread basket. They grew a great deal of wheat and corn. Kids were often needed to help with the crops. So school was out during planting and harvest cycles.  

In the Southern Colonies, Home Schooled: In the south, there were very few towns, so there were not many schools. Some kids were sent back to England to attend school. Some had private teachers hired by their family.  The big plantations had dancing masters and music teachers for the planters children. Most kids in the south were homeschooled.

What important natural resource in west Africa did the Songhai empire control?
yawa3891 [41]
The important natural resource in West Africa that the Songhai Empire controlled was salt.
This salt was predominantly found in the Sahara desert - there are still a lot of salt mines in this West African desert. The Songhai Empire heavily relied on salt trade, which brought most of its money into the empire - this is the reason why it was so powerful at the time - because of salt and gold.
