1 answer:

5 0

It would degrade the role of wife and mother--The Equal Rights Amendment would secure women's place in the economy and therefore out of the home.

Phyllis Schlafly believed the ERA would encourage women to enter the workforce instead of take care of their home and children. That role was the most important for women and they had the natural ability to do that job. The ERA would tear apart families and encourage immoral behavior among women. It would also force women to sign up for the draft which Schlafly and many women believed was an improper place for women.

After World War II, Georgia grew thanks to developments in which two industries?

Vesnalui [34]

Answer: By war's end, it was the world's largest railroad system. Other Northern industries--weapons manufacturing, leather goods, iron production, textiles--grew and improved as the war progressed.From 1945 to 1970, several factors influenced Georgia's growth. The shift from rural agrarianism to factory jobs after World War II resulted in larger urban populations. Atlanta developed into a recognizable metropolis due to the roles of two influential mayors – William B. Hartsfield and Ivan Allen Jr. Once viewed primarily as a cotton state, Georgia now consistently ranks first in the nation's production of poultry and eggs and is also a top producer of peanuts, pecans, tobacco, blueberries, and peaches. Overall, the state accounts for 2 percent of total U.S. agricultural sales.

How has African Americans impact us today

IrinaVladis [17]

Explanation:

Abstract

Africans have, since the early settlement of America, influenced the nation's language, manners, religion, literature, music, art, and dance. One of our most crucial urban problems, the Negro low-status family, may have African origins. In the realm of politics, the civil rights fight in America from its origin has been linked to the struggle for African freedom, and American Negro intellectuals have identified with African culture from the beginning of the century, an identification accelerated since 1956 with the formation of the International Society of African Culture and the American Society of African Culture. American Negro leadership has collectively thrown its considerable political weight on the side of African freedom, and black nationalist organizations have kept up a noisy gadfly agitation. In the midst of this, America must deal with a considerable African presence in the United Nations.
