How did realtors in the 1920s contribute to racial segregation in housing?

History
1 answer:
asambeis [7]3 years ago
3 0

Racial segregation in neighborhoods and housing started to become a real problem during the 1920s and realtors contributed to that.

Some realtors during this time wanted to keep blacks and whites in separate neighborhoods, as some were racist and wanted to continue racial segregation. Some would create high prices so African Americans would not be able to afford homes or purposely sell homes to just white people.

Blockbusting is another way that realtors during the 1920s continued racial segregation in housing and neighborhoods. This was where they would tell white homeowners that minorities would be moving into the neighborhood. This would cause many white homeowners to panic and sell their homes at a low price.

PLEASE HELP!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!! According to the ___ (Second Amendment, Third Amendment, Fifth Amendment, Seventh Amendm
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

According to the Second Amendment, all US citzens were allowed to bear and keep arms.  It is not clear whether that provided the right to individual self-defense or to state militias.

Explanation:

The Second Amendment of the Constitution that was adopted in 1791 was meant to provide a check on congressional power and the federal government under Article I Section 8. This is the section of the Amendment that addresses the rights of the individual to organize, arm and discipline the federal militia. This amendment is controversial in modern society today because some people interpret it as the Constitutional defense for an individual to bear arms. It is an important part of the controversy over gun control in the United States.

There is some disagreement about the extent to which this right was applicable because the Second Amendment reads "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." There are therefore some who say that the right to bear arms is only in the context of militias needed to defend the rights of the state.

How many slaves were relocated to Liberia
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

American Colonization Society (ACS), originally known as the The Society for the Colonization of Free People of Color of America, was founded in 1816 by Robert Finley to encourage and support the migration of free African Americans to the continent of Africa. There were several factors that led to the establishment of the American Colonization Society. The number of free people of color grew steadily following the American Revolutionary War, from 60,000 in 1790 to 300,000 by 1830. Consequently, slaveowners grew increasingly concerned that free blacks might encourage or help their slaves to escape or rebel. In addition, most white Americans saw African Americans as "racially" inferior and felt that "amalgamation," or integration, of African Americans with white American culture was impossible and undesirable. This reinforced the notion that African Americans should be relocated to somewhere they could live free of prejudice, where they could be citizens. The African-American community and abolitionist movement overwhelmingly opposed the project. In most cases, African Americans' families had lived in the United States for generations, and their prevailing sentiment was that they were no more African than white Americans were European. Contrary to stated claims that emigration was voluntary, many African Americans, both free and enslaved, were pressured into emigrating. Indeed, enslavers sometimes manumitted their slaves on condition that the freedmen leave the country immediately. According to historian Marc Leepson, "Colonization proved to be a giant failure, doing nothing to stem the forces that brought the nation to Civil War." Between 1821 and 1847, only a few thousand African Americans, out of the then millions in the US, emigrated to what would become Liberia. Close to half of them died from tropical diseases. In addition, the transportation of the emigrants to the African continent, including the provisioning of requisite tools and supplies, proved very expensive.
