High debts incurred by the Yamasee and Creek in trade with the English settlers

Explanation:

The conflict that occurred between the British Settlers of Carolina and confederation of Native American people ( Cherokee, Muskogee etc. ) is known as Yamasee War, it lasted from 1715 till 1717.

The war started when the Native confederation attacked the white settlements in South Carolina, later the tide turned against the Natives and they were defeated by the colonialists and they got the control over the coast of South Carolina, the natives were pushed onto the land of northern Florida.

The native Indians incurred debt because they the tribe had become dependent on the English firearms and other items and incurred a large debt because of it, the had to be paid in form of deerskins. the white fur traders enslaved a number of Yamasee children and women to cover their debt. The influx of white settlers also put pressure on the Indian hunting and agricultural lands.

1. List the names and accomplishments of two women's rights reformers from the 1800s (4 points)

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

1) Women’s rights movement, also called women’s liberation movement, diverse social movement, largely based in the United States, that in the 1960s and ’70s sought equal rights and opportunities and greater personal freedom for women. It coincided with and is recognized as part of the “second wave” of feminism. While the first-wave feminism of the 19th and early 20th centuries focused on women’s legal rights, especially the right to vote (see women’s suffrage), the second-wave feminism of the women’s rights movement touched on every area of women’s experience—including politics, work, the family, and sexuality. Organized activism by and on behalf of women continued through the third and fourth waves of feminism from the mid-1990s and the early 2010s, respectively. For more discussion of historical and contemporary feminists and the women’s movements they inspired, see feminism.

<h3 /><h2>2)Prologue To A Social Movement:-</h2>

In the aftermath of World War II, the lives of women in developed countries changed dramatically. Household technology eased the burdens of homemaking, life expectancies increased dramatically, and the growth of the service sector opened up thousands of jobs not dependent on physical strength. Despite these socioeconomic transformations, cultural attitudes (especially concerning women’s work) and legal precedents still reinforced sexual inequalities. An articulate account of the oppressive effects of prevailing notions of femininity appeared in Le Deuxième Sexe (1949; The Second Sex), by the French writer and philosopher Simone de Beauvoir. It became a worldwide best seller and raised feminist consciousness by stressing that liberation for women was liberation for men too.

<h2>3)Reformers And Revolutionaries :-</h2><h2 />

Initially, women energized by Friedan’s book joined with government leaders and union representatives who had been lobbying the federal government for equal pay and for protection against employment discrimination. By June 1966 they had concluded that polite requests were insufficient. They would need their own national pressure group—a women’s equivalent of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). With this, the National Organization for Women (NOW) was born.

<h2>4)Successes And Failures</h2>

With the eventual backing of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (1965), women gained access to jobs in every corner of the U.S. economy, and employers with long histories of discrimination were required to provide timetables for increasing the number of women in their workforces. Divorce laws were liberalized; employers were barred from firing pregnant women; and women’s studies programs were created in colleges and universities. Record numbers of women ran for—and started winning—political office. In 1972 Congress passed Title IX of the Higher Education Act, which prohibited discrimination on the basis of sex in any educational program receiving federal funds and thereby forced all-male schools to open their doors to women and athletic programs to sponsor and finance female sports teams. And in 1973, in its controversial ruling on Roe v. Wade, the United States Supreme Court legalized abortion.
