Separation of church and state  and trial by jury of one's peers are some similarities between the Magna Carta and the US constitution.

Explanation:

Magna carta' Libertatum is commonly called the 'great charter'  is a charter of rights agreed by King John in 1215. It protected the freedom of the England' wealthy classes. It was against Absolutism and monarchy and gave rise to the common law. It was written in order to protect the rights of the people against the tyrannical king and it also revealed the grievances pertaining to the feudal system.

Similarly, Declaration of independence was written due to the tyranny and despotic attitude of the English crown against the colonists. People were burdened with heavy taxes and the annoyed colonists plunged into protests paving way for the secession from the homeland and independence. Both the documents gave importance to human rights.

What new opportunities did the 1920s do for women and African Americans? What new limitations did this era impose?
Gnesinka [82]

The 1920's resulted in a change in opportunities for women and African Americans. During the 1920's, African American men and women became known for their musical and artistics talents thanks to the Harlem Renaissance. This era was considered a revival of black culture and saw the development of talents like Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong. The popularity of jazz music allowed men like this to become famous on a national scale.

Along with this, women started to challenge traditional social norms. Instead of being seen strictly a housewife, women (especially flappers) were outgoing, went to speakeasies, and did things that were usually only done by men before this time.
