Answer:

Democracy.

Explanation:

In the period of Ancient Greece there were many city-states established, that had different forms of government. The most peculiar one was created in Athens, known to us as democracy. With many reforms introduced by Cleisthenes, Solon and others, Athenians created a system inside which the people had authority and possibility to govern themselves through certain institutions such as Ecclesia. Of course, Athenian democracy differed from modern democracy as a lot of people didn't had the right to participate in public life.

Shakespeare was born in London in 1564.<br> a. True<br> b. False
Ann [662]
The correct answer is : B: False. Shakespeare wasn't born in London - he was born in Stratford-upon-Avon and baptized there on 26 April 1564. His actual date of birth really remains unknown, but it is traditionally observed on 23 April, Saint Georges Day. This date, which can be traced back to an 18th-century scholar's mistake, has proved appealing to biographers, since Shakespeare died 23 April 1616. <span>He was the third child of eight and the eldest surviving son.</span>

The Civil Rights Movement made great strides toward equality, but our society still has a long way to go. How have we made progr
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Since the Civil Rights Movement, we have made strides to remove redlining, segregation laws, and other errors in diversity movements of the past. An example of a growth since the Civil Rights Movement would be the workplace discrimination act, stating that businesses may not turn down possible employees due to race, disability, age, gender, or ethnicity. However, in terms of race, we still have far to go. In criminal justice reform, in stereotyping, and in the display we have of diversity in media today are just a few places in which race reforms are needed. For example, there are very few kids shows which include a black character as the main character. This is harmful, as black children grow up seeing white people as the heroes and black people as the background characters, never the active participants in the protagonist  story line.  Education reforms in inner cities have been proven to greatly aid black success as lower income areas tend to attract teachers which are not as prepared as those in higher income, traditionally white neighborhoods thanks to the remnants of redlining in the Jim Crowe era. We have removed obvious race problems since the Civil Rights movement such as the poll tax, grandfather clause, and the literacy tests, but this is the tip of the iceberg in removing underlying systematic oppression which is not actively put in place today to harm those of non-Caucasian groups.  

Explanation:

This is a highly debated topic, and your teacher may be wanting your opinion which may or may not align with mine. I tried to provide as many examples on both sides as I could in a concise answer and I hope this helped!
