History

Luden [163]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Except for the second statement, all others are correct descriptions of the Jim Crow laws.

Explanation:

Jim Crow laws started after the Reconstruction period (1863-1877) and served to keep now former slaves, the African-Americans, from having equal rights as the white people had.

Based on the truthless argument of "separate but equal" these laws created spaces that black people did not have access to, leaving the best positions in many places for the whites. The separation was the way white supremacists chose back then to enforce their violence upon black people.

The "equal" in the aforementioned phrase was empty as violence against African-Americans was explicit; lynchings of black men, for example, were common. Black American citizens didn't have their civil rights respected, not in practice (the right to vote was constantly disrespected) nor in theory (Jim Crow laws violated many civil rights)

PLEASE ANSWER THESE THREE QUESTIONS THERE 62 POINTS!!!
enot [183]

Answer:

Well it has to do with the Amendments, the first Amendment which talks about due process and rights would be the 5th Amendment which guarantees your Miranda Rights (Miranda vs. Arizona) This is the first step. The Miranda Rights is what you see in those cop movies where the police say “You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can be used in court. You have the right to an attorney. If you can’t get one we will provide you one....” or something close to those lines.

The other Amendment which talks about due process and protection is 14th Amendment which states: “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” Section. 2.

There is also something about a speedy and fair trial.

So yes the answer to your question is that guarantees your constitutional rights because we have Amendments for these. All Americans have the right to a fair, speedy trial. And no one is guilty with a claim against them—-this is why it’s known as Innocent UNTIL PROVEN guilty.

The 5th Amendment is quoted like this: “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”

PS. The reason why the 5th Amendment is known as Miranda rights is Because Mr. Miranda was in trouble because a sex crime but he found that the cops didn’t read him his rights when they arrested him

What does Odysseus say when Arete questions him sharply and asks him to reveal his identity?
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

He related his story from Calypso's island until Nausicaa's help earlier that day, but failed to mention his name or the name of his kingdom.

Explanation:

"Alone with Alcinous and Odysseus, Arete recognizes Odysseus' clothing as her own creation and asks him who he is and who gave him his clothing. He relates his story from Calypso's island until Nausicaa's help earlier that day. Alcinous says Nausicaa should have taken him home with her directly, but Odysseus says it was his idea to follow her separately. Taken with Odysseus, Alcinous vows to help him get home".
