What is the most important obstacle James Forten faceted

Social Studies
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

James Forten was a powerful African-American businessman and activist who used his influence to fight slavery in pre-civil war in Philadelphia.

He later became an apprentice to a sail marker and in 1798 gained ownership of the business.

Thus, his most important obstacle was petitioning the U.S. Congress to modify the 1793 Fugitive Slave Law, which stated a slave owner had the right to to cross state lines and take back a runaway slave.

He then published a pamphlet titled, "A Series of Letters by a Man of Colour" to oppose a Pennsylvania Senate Bill that would restrict African American emigration. He also generously funded fellow abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison's paper, "The Liberator", which publicly spoke against injustice and inhuman of slavery.

In conclusion, Forten ran a business without any slavery interaction, an extremely bold and progressive move. He refused to sell supplies to any ships that were involved or suspected to be involved with the slave trade. Forten proved that a business could still thrive without any involvement with slavery.

The psychodynamic theory of human motivation centers on
Effectus [21]

Psychodynamics, also known as psychodynamic psychology, in its broadest sense, is an approach to psychology that emphasizes systematic study of the psychological forces that underlie human behavior, feelings, and emotions and how they might relate to early experience. It is especially interested in the dynamic relations between conscious motivation and unconscious motivation.[1]

The term psychodynamics is also used by some to refer specifically to the psychoanalytical approach developed by Sigmund Freud (1856–1939) and his followers. Freud was inspired by the theory of thermodynamics and used the term psychodynamics to describe the processes of the mind as flows of psychological energy (libido) in an organically complex brain.[2]

There are 4 different schools of thought regarding psychological treatment: Psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, biological, and humanistic treatment. In the treatment of psychological distress, psychodynamic psychotherapy tends to be a less intensive, once- or twice-weekly modality than the classical Freudian psychoanalysis treatment of 3-5 sessions per week. Psychodynamic therapies depend upon a theory of inner conflict, wherein repressed behaviours and emotions surface into the patient’s consciousness; generally, one's conflict is subconscious.[3] Psychodynamic psychotherapies are considered outdated, compared to cognitive-behavioral and interpersonal therapies.
