Answer:

All adult men who were members of the church were given the right to vote.

Explanation:

The Massachusetts Bay Colony was an English colony on the east coast of North America in the 17th century, on the site of today's Boston.

The first settlers arrived in 1629, after previous colonization efforts in Maine and North Carolina had failed due to food shortages. These colonists were mostly Puritan, and they had drawn up the Mayflower Charter on board the Mayflower, which would function as a constitution.  

Within the community, it was ordained that the Massachusetts colony was founded with the help of God, making church attendance and punishment of sinners an important part of public life.

This condition of confessional state, added to the absolute lack of prestige and honorability that not belonging to the Puritan community meant in the colony, meant that for the purposes of exercising political rights, colonists were required to belong to the Puritan church and their constant participation in it.

What events or historical forces contributed to the Boston busing crisis of the mid-1970s? Name at least three, and briefly expl
MrRa [10]

Answer:

1. the struggle for voting rights

2. de facto school segregation

3. quality of public schools in black neighborhood

Explanation:

1. the struggle for voting right: this was a struggle between de jure segregation that existed in just one part of the country (the states of the old south). but the problem of de facto segregation was one that existed throughout the country, and its effects perhaps seen most clearly in nation's public schools

2. de facto school segregation: several supreme court cases in the early 1960s made it clear that de facto school segregation was unlawful and that segregated schools would be integrated by court order if necessary. in early 1970s, court began requiring school plans, which would send African-American students to largely white schools and send withe students to largely African-American schools, as a means of achieving greater racial balance

3. quality of public schools in black neighborhood: in Boston, African-American community began protesting the quality of public schools in largely black neighborhoods in the early 1960s. in 1965, in response to federal investigation of possible segregation in the Boston public schools, the Massachusetts legislature passed a Racial imbalance act. the new law outlawed segregation in Massachusetts schools and threatened to cut off state funding for any school district that did not comply.
