The correct option is "the national currency was too weak"
While the Southerners resigned their seats in the Senate and the House of Representatives, secession allowed the Republicans to approve proposals that had been blocked by the Southern senators before the war. Among these laws that were approved highlighted the Morrill Act, through which the important iron industry was protected; the Homestead Act, according to which all free citizens who applied for 160 acres of land not yet worked from the territories outside the Thirteen Colonies would be granted; the construction of a transcontinental railroad; the National Banking Act, with which the use of the national currency was developed and the Law of Legal Course of 1862, which authorized the use of bank notes. Fees on income to finance the war were also approved with the Tax Act.
Well... Think about it, you sent your son to die several thousand miles to die away from home. Who'd want to send your sons to go fight a war they never wanted to be a part of?
The right answer is C. W.E.B. Du Bois.
The Harlem Renaissance was an art movement in the 1920s that focused on African-American art. It was centered around the Harlem neighbourhood in NYC, hence the name.
Let's look at all the answers:
A. - F. Scott Fitzgerard was also active around that time, but he was part of another movement, the "Lost Generation" of people who came to age during World War I, and were traumatised by it.
B. H.L. Mencken was in fact a racist, so he could not form part of a movement centered around African-American art.
C. W.E.B. Du Bois was a civil rights activist, and in fact published and edited a lot of articles supporting and encouraring the Harlem Renaissance. This is the correct anwer.
D. Claude McKay creates a potential confusion here, as he also participated in the Harlem Renaissance, most notably with his book "Home to Harlem" in 1928. However, answer C is more fitting, as McKay mostly focused on literary work, and not an activist, as Du Bois was.
