Answer:

James Henry Hammond was a senator and wealthy plantation owner from South Carolina. This excerpt is from a speech he made to the Senate on March 4, 1858, in which he lays out his famous "mudsill theory" and states, "In all societies that must be a class to do the menial duties, to perform the drudgery of life." This class, says Hammond, makes it possible for the higher class to move civilization forward.

In the antebellum period, pro-slavery forces moved from defending slavery as a necessary evil to expounding it as a positive good. Some insisted that African Americans were child-like people in need of protection, and that slavery provided a civilizing influence. Others argued that black people were biologically inferior to white people and were incapable of assimilating in free society. Still others claimed that slaves were necessary to maintain the progress of white society.

The ______ Club in New York was one of the most famous jazz clubs.
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The <u><em>Cotton </em></u>Club

Explanation:

The Cotton Club was a nightclub in New York (United States) that remained open during Prohibition in the 1920s.

It was founded in 1920 in Harlem, in the black neighborhood of Manhattan, although they generally denied admission to African-American consumers. The club was opened by heavyweight champion Jack Johnson, and smuggler and gangster Owney Madden acquired the club in 1923 while incarcerated at Sing Sing and changed the name of the club to Cotton Club.

It was a mythical club at the time since it was the showcase of the main musical novelties, such as Fletcher Henderson, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Bessie Smith, Cab Calloway, The Nicholas Brothers, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Nat King Cole, Billie Holiday or Ethel Waters. On Sundays were frequent "Celebrities Nights", attended by prominent people from politics and culture, such as Jimmy Durante, George Gershwin, Al Jolson, Mae West, Irving Berlin, Eddie Cantor, the mayor of New York Jimmy Walker or other celebrities.

Take up the White Man's burden-
Maslowich

D. Your new-caught, sullen peoples, / Half-devil and half-child.

Explanation:

  • Poem was written in 1899, at a time when Philippines  were fighting for independence from the United States of America.
  • Kipling clearly liked the idea of enslaving the people of one Asian country on the other side of the world. The White Man's Burden was written with the sole intention of persuading Americans not to give freedom to the Philippines.
  • Poem is, by modern standards, extremely offensive. The author calls the population of another race your new-caught, sullen peoples / Half-devil and half-child.
  • He criticizes them for not accepting white people as better than themselves and those who brought them to the light of day by colonization.
