Many blacks moved from the South to Northern cities during World War II, looking for employment. After the war, a number of them

lost their jobs. Why did this happen? Factory owners did not want minorities working for them. Corporations would not hire blacks unless forced to do so. Companies scaled back production during the postwar years. Too many businesses went bankrupt following the war.

During times of war, some businesses may wither, others may flourish. The market for weapons, perhaps, would have a booming sales performance. This would attract people to come and work for them instead because they would need labor force. However, after the war has died down, people will stop buying these goods. It's time for them to rebuild their businesses. They would have to cut off expenditures to allocate for rebuilding. The easiest pool of expenditures for company owners are the wages. So, as a result, they would lay off workers. In the worst case scenario, businesses would have no way of paying the workers because they would go bankrupt.

Therefore, the answer is: <span>Too many businesses went bankrupt following the war..</span>

What is the proper order for how a bill passes through the house
Veronika [31]
Easy...

well first it is an idea...someone thinks of it up and decides they want to make a law...so a bill is thought up.

It's then proposed...a Representative talks to other Representatives to gather support for it.

Once it's proposed it's sent to a committee, to be reviewed, researched and revised...it's then sent to the House floor.

After that, the bill gets debated...and it gets voted on.

After that, if the bill passes the House of Representatives, it is then sent to the Senate. It's done with the House. <span />

why did the battle of lexington and concord take place? who was involved? what were the results? why was the battle important?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

In April 1775, the "shots heard around the world" were fired at Lexington and Concord. The shots were the result of colonial tension toward the acts passed by the British government. The colonial militia was victorious at Lexington and Concord. Delegates to the Second Continental Congress assembled in Philadelphia three weeks after the battles at Lexington and Concord. The Congress selected John Hancock as its president. Hancock was one of the richest colonists. He used his wealth to fund the Sons of Liberty in his home state of Massachusetts. The Congress also selected George Washington as the commander of the Continental Army. In an attempt to avoid a full-scale war, the Congress sent King George the Olive Branch Petition. In it, the colonists asked the King to protect their rights and told the King that they wanted peace. King George rejected their petition and began preparing for war.

Which statements are true of the Magna Carta? Choose all answers that are correct.
Nata [24]

Answer:

3. The Magna Carta guaranteed that the king could not impose new taxes without permission from a council.

1. English barons and church leaders wrote the Magna Carta because they could no longer tolerate King John's abuses of their traditional rights.

Another way to rephrase the first one is;

Among the many restrictions placed upon the King by the Nobles was the idea that the king could not impose taxes without the approval of the “common counsel” of the Kingdom:

Another way to rephrase the second one is;

The committee of Twenty Five were a group of barons in the forefront of the opposition to King John who were entrusted by the terms of clause 61 of Magna Carta to ensure the king’s compliance with its terms.

The church clergy that helped were Cathedral churches in Salisbury and Lincoln.

Explanation:

Justice

King John’s father, Henry II (r. 1154–89), introduced extensive judicial reforms, established the authority of the royal courts and laid firm foundations for the future system of justice in England. In contrast, John regularly abused the justice system to suppress his opponents and to extort revenue from the barons. The justice system and feudal law were two of the main themes addressed in Magna Carta, and the most famous clause dealt with justice:

No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful judgement of his equals or by the law of the land.

The barons ensured that numerous other clauses in Magna Carta defined in more detail how the justice system and its officials were to operate. These clauses sought to remedy specific abuses by the king and to make the system more consistent, accessible and fair.

Magna Carta and peace

Many of the clauses towards the end of Magna Carta were practical arrangements for making peace. Rather than looking forward to how the king was to behave in the future, these clauses sought to put right the wrongs done by King John.

The king was immediately to return all hostages, to remove all foreign knights and mercenaries from England, to remit all fines exacted unjustly, and to restore lands, castles and liberties to all who had been wrongfully deprived of them. These clauses were not statements of legal principle, but they were a part of the peace-making process.

All the others are not true as King John had no choice at all.

Perhaps the most radical clause in Magna Carta was the 61st, which set up an elected commission of 25 barons to monitor the king’s compliance with the settlement and to enforce its terms. The 25 barons had the power to seize the king’s property in order to seek redress if he failed to keep the terms imposed on him. This innovative clause demonstrated the power invested in Magna Carta to limit royal authority
