goblinko [34]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The state was an excellent choice for housing prisoners, as the climate was mild, there were few cities, and POWs could be kept busy working on farms and ranches. Oklahoma Ordnance Works, located between Chouteau and Pryor, was one of several plants that produced powders for explosives and bombs, such as TNT. 10,000 employees worked at the facility. The Tulsa Bomber Plant built several types of bombers, was run by the Douglas Aircraft Company, and employed 23,000 people during the war’s peak. The US Naval Ammunition Depot at McAlester opened in 1943. Citizens petitioned the government to build an ammunitions plant there, and the contracts were awarded because it was located inland and at intersections of highways and railroads. On April 8, 1941, Oklahoma City got a contract for a supply and maintenance depot and opened Tinker Field in 1942. It was the largest air material depot in world, and it specialized in repairing bombers. The base was named after Clarence L. Tinker, the first American Indian in US Army to reach the rank of major general. Thirty thousand people worked at Tinker, half of which were women.

Describe how Black Codes were used to restrict the rights of newly freed African Americans.
Keith_Richards [23]
Black codes were restrictive laws designed to limit the freedom of African Americans and ensure their availability as a cheap labor force after slavery was abolished during the Civil War. Under black codes, many states required Black people to sign yearly labor contracts; if they refused, they risked being arrested, fined and forced into unpaid labor.
Even as former enslaved people fought to assert their independence and gain economic autonomy during the earliest years of Reconstruction. While the codes granted certain freedoms to African Americans—including the right to buy and own property, marry, make contracts and testify in court (only in cases involving people of their own race)—their primary purpose was to restrict Black peoples’ labor and activity. Black people who broke labor contracts were subject to arrest, beating and forced labor, and apprenticeship laws forced many minors into unpaid labor for white planters.

1.samuelson and nordhaus say there is a possible connection between GDP and a recession. what is the connection?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

GDP declines, and unemployment rates rise because companies lay off workers to reduce costs. At the microeconomic level, firms experience declining margins during a recession. When revenue, whether from sales or investment, declines, firms look to cut their least-efficient activities.
