Ektara (Hindi: एकतारा, Bengali: একতারা, Nepali: एकतारे, Punjabi: ਇਕ ਤਾਰਾ, Tamil: எக்டரா; literally 'one-string', also called actara, iktar, ektar, yaktaro, gopichand, gopichant, golki Nepali: गोल्, gopijiantra, tun tuna) is a one-stringed musical instrument used in the traditional music of South Asia,[1] and used in modern-day music of Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan.[1] It originated in South Asia.[1]
In origin the ektara was a regular string instrument of wandering bards and minstrels from India and is plucked with one finger. The ektara is a drone lute consisting of a gourd resonator covered with skin, through which a bamboo neck is inserted. It is used in parts of India and Nepal today by Yogis and wandering holy men to accompany their singing and prayers. In Nepal, the instrument accompanies the singing of the Ramayana and Mahabharata.[2]
It has two forms. One form resembles a lute. To make that version, a bamboo stick (90cm long) is inserted through side of wooden bowl (called a "tumbo") and the top of the bowl is covered with deerskin. The instrument has a single string running from a peg at the top, down the length of the stick-neck, across a bridge on the deerhide soundboard, and is tied at the "spike" where the stick pokes through the bowl. The instrument's string is plucked with the musicians index fingernail.[3][2]
The other version uses a drum-like body, and a skin soundboard with a string attached (to bend the sound of the soundboard). Two bamboo lathes are attached to the side of the drumhead and the string goes from the soundboard to where the lathes meet. This version of the instrument may be played either by plucking the string or by tapping the drumhead. Squeezing and releasing the bamboo lathes puts pressure on the drumhead and bends the pitch up and down. This form is associated with the Bauls of West Bengal, as well as the Tharu people of Udayapur District, Nepal.

Select ALL the correct answers. In what three ways did discrimination against African Americans continue after the GI Bill of Ri
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Thanks to discrimination after the GI Bill of Rights was passed:

  • Many were denied loans to purchase a home from white loan officers.
  • Many were denied high-paying jobs due to lack of education.
  • Many were denied entry into colleges due to segregation laws.

The GI Bill of Rights was passed after the second World War in order to help veterans be integrated into society. It was to help them get houses through housing assistance and education through tuition assistance.

Because Black people were mostly denied entry into colleges due to segregation laws, they could not take advantage of the bill to get better education that would guarantee them better jobs.

They were also denied loan applications to get houses by white loan officers and so could not benefit from that as well.

In conclusion, the GI Bill of Rights did not benefit every veteran but only those with a certain skin tone.

Had to look for the missing details and here is my answer.
Based on the image attached, how the Reconstruction Amendments helped in explaining the status of men is that "the 14th Amendment granted the men citizenship, making it possible for them to run for office, while the 15th Amendment allowed African American men to vote for their representative." This answer is based on the actual options posted. Hope this helps.
