1. How did labor unions and African Americans intersect during the era? What role did black people play in strikes? Points to co

nsider:Although the Knights of Labor allowed black membership, by the 1890s the organization had lost influence to the American Federation of Labor. Founded in 1886, the AFL was ostensibly open to all skilled workers, but most of its local craft unions barred women and black tradesmen. In contrast, the United Mine Workers (UMW), formed in 1890, encouraged black coal miners to join the union rather than serve as strikebreakers. By 1900 approximately 20,000 of the 91,000 members of the UMW were black men. The Industrial Workers of the World, a revolutionary labor organization founded in 1905, brought black laborers and white laborers together. In 1869 a Baltimore ship caulker, Isaac Myers, organized the National Colored Labor Union, which lasted for seven years. Black stevedores periodically went on strike in Charleston, Savannah, and New Orleans. The Longshoremen’s Protective Union in Charleston won several strikes in the 1870s. In Nashville in 1871 black dockyard workers went on strike, demanding 20 cents an hour.
2. What was the educational debate between Booker T. Washington and W. E. B. Du Bois? Points to consider:Booker T. Washington encouraged black people to work within the system and learn a trade to join the working class; Du Bois believed education should advance black people intellectually.

Which languages do many East Africans speak in addition to their many native languages?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

It depends on the history of colonialism in the area, but a safe bet is Swahili / French and English.

Explanation:

Near the Cote d'Ivoire and Senegal regions the <u>French</u> had influence for many years, so naturally many Africans there speak French.

<u>English</u> is the current language of business and higher education --everyone wants to know English because it's helpful in trade and commerce.

<u>Swahili</u> is a "lingua franca" in East Africa, which means that it's often used as an intermediate for two people who have their own native tongue (say, Yoruba and Igbo).

All the colonies that were settled by england were succesful true or false
Usimov [2.4K]

The British colonization of the Americas (including colonization by both the English and the Scots) began in 1607 in Jamestown, Virginia, and reached its peak when colonies had been established throughout the Americas. The English, and later the British, were among the most important colonizers of the Americas, and their American empire came to rival the Spanish American colonies in military and economic might.


Three types of colonies were established in the English overseas possessions in America of the 17th century and continued into the British Empire at the height of its power in the 17th century. These were charter colonies, proprietary colonies, and royal colonies. A group of 13 British American colonies collectively broke from the British Empire in the 1770s through a successful revolution, establishing the modern United States. After the end of the Napoleonic Wars (1803–15), the remaining British territories in North America were slowly granted more responsible government. In 1838 the Durham Report recommended full responsible government for Canada, but this was not fully implemented for another decade. Eventually, with the Confederation of Canada, the Canadian colonies were granted significant autonomy and became a self-governing Dominion in 1867. Other colonies in the Americas followed at a much slower pace. In this way, two countries in North America, ten in the Caribbean, and one in South America have received their independence from Great Britain or the later United Kingdom. All of these, except the United States, are members of the Commonwealth of Nations and nine are Commonwealth realms. The eight current British overseas territories in the Americas have varying degrees of self-government.

Mark receives a summons for jury duty. He serves on a jury for two weeks listening to testimony about a robbery that took place
Likurg_2 [28]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

There is no question here. It is just a statement.

However, doing some research we can say that the proper question for this statement is the following: <em>"Is Mark's service in a jury a responsibility or an obligation?"</em>

If that is the case, then the correct answer is "an obligation."

According to the laws of the state, an individual who is summoned by the state to be part of a jury has the obligation to attend. If he or she does not attend, he should be fined according to the law. If the individual cannot attend, it has to be for a very important situation that has to be explained. Otherwise, the state will consider his +/her negativity to attend as a contempt of court.
