African slaves often used Christian hymns to communicate.  The slaves used these hymns in order to communicate coded messages to each other about their conditions, and possible avenues for escape.  The slaves' overseers thought that the slaves were simply singing religious songs and were not able to recognize the messages hidden within these songs.  These hymns had an influence on the later musical style of the African American spiritual.

This was done to share hardships and various Christian principles. Most slaves could not read or write so they relied on an oral tradition to pass down stories, religious beliefs, and any other important information. This led to the creation of the musical style that we refer to today as spirituals.

What was one effect of the stalemate in the Korean War within the United States?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Dwight D. Eisenhower won the presidential election.

Explanation:

When he became the U.S. President, Dwight D. Eisenhower went to Korea in order to find a solution to end the Korean War. We could even say that thanks to the Korean War, Eisenhower was elected the new U.S. president.  

During his presidential campaign, President Truman, challenged Eisenhower to find an adequate solution for the Korean War. Eisenhower said that if he were the president, he would personally go to Korea to terminate the war. This statement raised his popularity and helped him to become the U.S. president.

Shortly after the elections, Eisenhower fulfilled his promise and went to Korea. When he returned to the U.S. he adopted a tough policy toward communism in Korea and threatened to Chinese communists that he would use even a nuclear weapon if the peace negotiation began to move forward. After that, the Chinese agreed to the U.S. terms in 1953.

What is woman’s suffrage? Why were some states hesitant to pass woman’s suffrage laws?
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Woman suffrage is the right for women to vote in democratic elections.

Explanation:

It was a global movement. In the USA the 19th amendment allowed women to vote in 1920. There were many reasons why there was some hesitation or outright opposition. Many disapproved at the methods that woman fought for suffrage. Many believed it was in line with the Bolshevik movement and socialism and was a threat to national security. In other areas, it was the social norms being challenged. Women’s domain was seen as the home. Men traditionally went to school for more years, were involved in science, business and fought in wars. Hence why they believed the domain of men was in politics and economics.

What is the goverment doing to protect the species that are going instinct
NARA [144]

Answer:

The government is doing their best to protect endangered species and one example of them is the Endangered Species Act. The Endangered Species Act (ESA) was enacted by Congress in 1973. Under the ESA, the federal government has the responsibility to protect endangered species (species that are likely to become extinct throughout all or a large portion of their range), threatened species (species that are likely to become endangered in the near future), and critical habitat (areas vital to the survival of endangered or threatened species).  Once a species becomes listed in ESA's database as "threatened" or "endangered," it receives special protections by the federal government. Animals are protected from “take” and being traded or sold.

Explanation:

The primary goal of the Endangered Species Act is to make species' populations healthy and vital, so they can be delisted from the Endangered Species Act. Under the Endangered Species Act, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service oversees the listing and protection of all terrestrial animals and plants as well as freshwater fish. NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service oversees marine fish and wildlife. The two organizations actively invest time and resources to help bring endangered or threatened species back from the brink of extinction.
