Answer:

One helpful statistic we can use is the amount of enslaved people per county, in the year 1860, just a year before the American Civil War.

Explanation:

This statistic can be used as a proxy to determine the counties were cotton had the highest production, because cotton was a cash crop grown in large plantations that were worked by enslaved African Americans.

Several counties had 80% or more slaves as percentage of the total population, meaning that they were overwhelmingly black. The majority of these counties were located in the Mississippi Delta, in the state of the same name, in the Black Belt of Alabama and Georgia, and in southern South Carolina.

What legal doctrine was established to control police misconduct?
Roman55 [17]
The correct answer is the exclusionary rule.

An exclusionary rule is a law that prohibits law officials from obtaining evidence from a suspect in an illegal manner. This type of law helps to curb the power of police and their conduct, as any evidence gained in an illegal manner cannot be used against the suspect in a court of law.

Why did stalin want the allies to open up another front in france? Why did the allies avoid doing this until 1944?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Explanation:

Stalin was interested in another front as a result of the Soviet Union being under a situation in which they were experiencing losses on the eastern front.

The Allies avoided doing this until 1944 because they wanted to mete out extreme damage on Germany as well as ruin the ability of Germans in making war.

Two opinion research organizations mentioned in the lesson are: Harris Census Pew Gallup
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Hard to say which research organizations were specifically mentioned in the unit you took with your teacher, so we'll trust the other respondent here that says it was Harris and Gallup.

Pew is a research organization also. The Census is not -- that's a US government function conducted every 10 years.

Let me give you some detail about each of the research organizations. I'll do so in alphabetical order.

Gallup, Inc. was founded by George Gallup in New Jersey in 1935, then called The American Institute of Public Opinion. Current headquarters of the Gallup organization are in Washington, DC, with over 30 offices located around the world. Gallup says that it "delivers analytics and advice to help leaders and organizations solve their most pressing problems," and claims that it "has more data and insights on the attitudes and behaviors of employees, customers, students and citizens than any other organization in the world."

Harris Insight & Analytics, headquartered in Rochester NY, conducts The Harris Poll, which was begun in 1963. The Harris Poll describes itself (on its website) as "one of the longest running surveys in the U.S. tracking public opinion, motivations and social sentiment." The stated mission of The Harris Poll is "to reveal the authentic values of modern society to inspire leaders to create a better tomorrow."

Pew Research Center, established in 2004, is headquartered in Washington DC. The Pew Research Center describes itself as "a nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes and trends shaping the world." Pew Research conducts "public opinion polling, demographic research, content analysis and other data-driven social science research."

"The legitimate object of government is to do for a community of people whatever they need to have done but cannot do at all, or
attashe74 [19]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I agree with Lincoln's view of the proper role of government in that the government should be of service to all the citizens. That is why in a modern democracy such as the one in the United States, it is the citizens the ones who have the right to vote and elect their President and their representatives. Then, these representatives have to create the laws and legislation that protects and benefits the citizens, never to benefit the particular agendas of powerful interest groups.

The citizens have to respect and obey laws and support the government's decisions if the government is doing a good job to promote the economy and the creation of jobs.
