Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago

Answer:

Just like slavery.

Explanation:

After slavery was ended by the civil war, the southern States still treated the African American people with hostility. The criminal system that they created targeted mostly the African American community, which make their prison is heavily populated by ex-slaves.

They created a system called convict labor.

In this system, the prison "Rent" their prisoners to private companies to work as their labor. In return, the companies will pay the prison with a sum amount of money that is lower compared to hiring workers with normal process. Since they're convicts, the prison  in southern states did not reward the prisoners in any way. So, it works like slavery.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

If you were at an interfaith meeting where one of the topics of discussion was how science and religion should relate in a changing world, what do you expect the religious representatives would bring up from their religions?

I would expect the religious representatives to bring up things from their religions from the perspective of having the answers to life's questions and why religion should not be interchanged with science.

<h3>What is a Religion?</h3>

This refers to the belief in the supernatural and the different sects that a person belongs to that share the same beliefs in the supernatural.

Hence, we can see that at an interfaith meeting where one of the topics of discussion was how science and religion should relate in a changing world, there would be contrasting views by each religious representative.

The three main religions are:

  • Islam
  • Christianity
  • Judaism
