Explain how World War II changed opportunities for African Americans

History
1 answer:
Luba_88 [7]3 years ago
4 0

The World War II involvement of the United States meant that lot of men had to go to war. This left a very big gap in the labor force market. Because of the lack of labor force, the people that were not sent to fight, including lot of African Americans, found themselves in a nice position when it came to job opportunities. The empty spaces in the labor market had to be filled in order for the economy to run, so pretty much everyone managed to get a job with ease. This opened a lot of doors for the African Americans against which there was lot of discrimination until then, so they used the opportunity, managed to get nicer jobs and to prosper in life because of it.

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Egyptians believed that the immortal spirit of the deceased remained linked to and dependent on its earthly body. Egyptians tombs were full of items designed to help and guarantee the soul's rebirth and its successful passage into the afterlife. Almost everything included with the burial symbolized rebirth and renewal.

To the ancient Egyptians, the judgment of the dead was the process that allowed the Egyptian gods to judge the worthiness of the souls of the deceased. Deeply rooted in the Egyptian belief of immortality, judgment was one of the most important parts of the journey through the afterlife.

Neporo4naja [7]

The correct answer is D, domestication of animals. All other alternatives refer to events that only happened later.

In order to affirm an Agricultural Revolution ocurred, historians have to choose the most important changes and events that determine that from that moment onwards life was different.

The most important thing that supports the idea of an Agricultural Revolution is that humans started to domesticate plants and animals, which made possible for them to settle and stop being nomads.

This lead to the birth of cities and to radically change how those people lived.
