Answer:

1) The September 11 attacks were a series of airline hijackings attacks committed in 2001 by 19 terrorists associated with the Islamic extremist group al-Qaeda. It was the deadliest terrorist attack on U.S. soil; nearly 3,000 people were killed.

2) Brian Clark was one of only 18 people in the South Tower to escape from a floor where the plane struck

3) Three buildings in the World Trade Center collapsed due to fire-induced structural failure. The South Tower collapsed at 9:59 a.m. having burned for 56 minutes in a fire caused by the impact of United Airlines Flight 175 and the explosion of its fuel. The North Tower collapsed at 10:28 after burning for 102 minutes.

4) The 9/11 terrorist attacks on America caused significant economic damage in the immediate aftermath, rippling through global financial markets. Airlines and insurance companies took the hardest immediate hit, and U.S. stock markets initially fell more than 10% in the days after.

What was the attitude of Americans towards African Americans at the time of the Spanish American War? How had the treatment of A
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

In the last decade of the 19th century, African Americans suffered segregation, exclusion, discrimination and racism. The Civil War assured the freedom of around 4 million black people. Despite the adoption of the 14th amendment and being given legal rights to elect and be elected, black people faced huge social and political inequality.

In the South, state legislatures had passed a series of laws that impeded African Americans from participating in elections. Poll taxes and literacy tests were put in place and turned into formidable barriers for the black southern populations given their poverty and lack of education. Those were the Jim Crow laws.

In 1896, a landmark US Supreme Court decision upheld segregated but equal faciliities for different racial groups as constitutional, validating the Jim Crow laws. That was the situation of African Americans by the late 19th century.

Will mark brainliest!
mezya [45]

Answer: I think the answer you have is right.

Explanation: The trenches were uncomfortable, muddy, and cold ditches dug into the ground where soldiers lived and shot from, they helped to protect the soldiers from getting shot and killed, but didn't keep them entirely safe, so there were still death in the trenches.

Why endure all that if they didn't believe in what they were fighting for, like the answer you have.

I hope this helps!

If it did, would you mind marking brainliest :)
