dmitriy555 [2]3 years ago
6 0

Sharecropping is a practice where a tenant gain the right to cultivate the land in return for a share of their crops produced on that portion of land. It is an unfair practice because frequent changes in crop prices, possibility of unfair weather or pests destroying the crop, and tendency of landowners to apply pressure on the sharecroppers by threatening not to renew the lease at the end of the growing season.  African Americans, freed but penniless, often found themselves finding work as sharecroppers and in competition with white sharecroppers as well, keeping them in a cycle of debt and poverty.

2. How did the Great Compromise reconcile the Virginia and New Jersey Plans for organizing the
german

Answer:

B. It established two houses: the House of Representatives where state size determined number of  representatives, and the Senate where each state would have only two senators no matter what its size

Explanation:

The problem which led to the formation of these houses was the contention between the small and large states. The large states wanted representation on the basis of numbers while the small states wanted representation equal representation to avoid domination by the larger states.

Roger Sherman and Oliver Ellsworth proposed this Great compromise that eventually resolved the problem between the opposing parties. The house of representatives allowed the representation of the states on the basis of numbers while the senate allowed each state no matter the population to only have two elected representatives.
