Fears of an imminent French invasion led the Adams administration to begin war preparations and pass a new land tax to pay for them. With fears of enemy spies infiltrating American society, the Federalist majority in Congress passed four new laws in June and July 1798, collectively known as the Alien and Sedition Acts.

The federalists believed that Democratic-Republican criticism of Federalist policies was disloyal and feared that aliens living in the United States would sympathize with the French during a war. As a result, a Federalist-controlled Congress passed four laws, known collectors as the Alien and Sedition Acts.

Marina86 [1]

"The purpose of <u>National Organization for Women</u> is to take action to bring women into full participation in the mainstream of American society now, exercising all privileges and responsibilities thereof in truly equal partnership with men."

NOW is dedicated to the proposition that women, first and foremost, are human beings, who, like all other people in society, must have the chance to develop their fullest human potential. This organization believed that women could achieve such equality only by accepting to the full the challenges and responsibilities they shared with all other people in society, as part of the decision-making mainstream of American political, economic and social life.

Discuss the controversies concerning the racial identity of ancient Egyptians. What is the significance of this controversy for
Ostrovityanka [42]
One of the main controversies concerning the race of Ancient Egyptians is determining whether or not to regard their history as "African History" since Egypt is located in what is now Africa. Most ancient historians do NOT discuss Egyptian history as African history, but rather as isolated or, in later periods, in tandem with Near Eastern and Mediterranean history. This is because Egypt was more or less cut off from sub-Saharan or Western Africa for most of its existence. Instead, Egyptians interacted most closely with Nubians and Near Eastern peoples.

This is controversial because Egypt was the birthplace of civilization. Many African-Americans find it Eurocentric that Egypt is lumped together with Western History. Instead, they would argue Egypt be discussed as uniquely African and civilization as an African, rather than a Western, invention. There is basis for this argument as well. Egyptians were most closely tied to Nubians (to their South) by means of trade and warfare. Additionally, while Egyptians had no categorical concept of race, they were most definitely not white and instead more closely resembled Africans of today.

In all, it is a difficult concept. On the one hand, anthropology and archaeology have historically been quite racist, European inventions and thus it should not be surprising how ancient historians regard Egypt today. But on the other hand, Egypt was very much connected to the Near East and, at that time, there was in fact no concept of "Africa" as a geographic space.
