Which statement about the Emancipation Proclamation is true?

History
1 answer:
77julia77 [94]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: It was an attempt to free only the slaves in the Confederacy, not the Border States or areas under Union control.

Explanation:

The Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 by President Lincoln freed the slaves in the Confederate states. This made the war about slavery and therefore ensured that European countries did not support the Confederacy and that the Union ranks increased as African Americans signed up for the war.

Sadly the proclamation did not free the enslaved people who were in the Border states or in areas under Union control because the President did not want these areas to join the Confederacy.

In a three- to five-paragraph essay, analyze whether U.S. foreign policy during the Cold War was motivated by a desire to promot
Nataly [62]

This question asks for an essay, which is a task that only you can complete. However, we can provide some information that can help you start your work.

The Cold War was a period in history in which the Soviet Union and the United States (along with their respective allies) engaged in an ideological and geopolitical struggle for global influence. While the United States argued that its main objective was to spread democracy all over the world, I believe that the politics of this time were mainly dominated by a desire to be the most influential country in the world.

This is supported by the fact that many of the decisions that the United States   made during this time period seem motivated more by a desire to compete with the Soviet Union than to benefit other countries. For example, the Space Race had no impact on democracy abroad. Nevertheless, it was an essential component of the Cold War and of gaining preeminence over the Soviet Union. Similarly, rivalry in sports and nuclear arsenal development are more closely related to a struggle for geopolitical influence than a desire to spread democracy.

In Katz v. United States, the Supreme Court ruled on whether police could tap a public phone without a warrant. Identify one way
vichka [17]

Answer:

In Katz v. USA (1967), the most important Fourth Amendment case, the defendant was sentenced by a federal court for illegal gambling. He organized them using a long-distance telephone, which was the crime against federal law. The judge admitted evidence to the trial in the form of telephone recordings of the accused received by the FBI agents. They installed eavesdropping equipment outside the telephone booth with which the accused called while committing a crime. The Supreme Court rejected the conviction.

Despite the fact that in the Katz case, the Court emphasized the protection of a person’s private life, rather than premises, it made one reservation: “The Fourth Amendment should not be construed as a basis for the adoption of a common “right to privacy.”

The decision in the Katz case is of great importance also for another reason. Judge Harlan, who joined the majority opinion, defined the criteria subsequently used by the courts to establish a violation or non-violation of the Fourth Amendment as a result of specific actions by the authorities. This criterion is called “reasonable expectation of privacy.” The criterion is based on two premises: first, a person must show a valid (subjective) expectation of respect for the right to privacy; secondly, this expectation must be of such a kind that society can recognize it as "reasonable."

Why has the meaning of the phrase “all men are created equal” changed over the years?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

the phrase began to change, like when the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendment became, that made a big change in the meaning of the phrase because now, slaves were free and had rights and were able to vote. Just like women had became able to when it use to be only the white men who were allowed to.
