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.

Which of the following describes the experience of World War I veterans during the Depression?
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

a.They protested Congress's refusal for early payment of war bonuses.

Explanation:

The Bonus Army March was a demonstration of the hunger march of World War I veterans who met in the summer of 1932 during the Great Depression in Washington, DC, with the demand to pay their contractual military certificates ahead of schedule. The law of 1924 gave them the right to receive veteran pension payments (bonuses) for certificates issued to them when they reached old age (they could not receive payments until 1945). Each certificate issued to a qualified veteran soldier had a face value equal to 1 percent  of the promised soldier reward, per day. The main requirement of the Bonus Army was the immediate payment of cash certificates.
