Answer:

This decision illustrates that the court has the right to review any judicial decision.

Explanation:

One of the most well-known powers that is attributed to the Supreme Court is the ability to judicially review any act, considered unconstitutional, that is not written in the federal constitution. This power is being illustrated in the text above.

This is because the text shows how the supreme court, judicially revised the decision that the black population could receive ballots to cast votes for candidates for governor. The supreme court states that the inclusion of the black vote is not described in the constitution and for that reason, the black people 's voting permission may undergo judicial review.

Alona [7]

In the plantations, male and female slaves were both responsible for all the planting, harvesting and cleaning of the fields under extremely harsh and inhumane conditions. The harvesting was carried out by broad curved machetes and afterwards the ripe sugar canes were loaded into carts and taken to the sugar cane mills erected in the plantation estates to be processed into sugar and its derivatives.

In the sugar cane mills, during the harvesting periods  work was 24 hours none stop to meet up with supply deadlines as most of the machinery used were slow and inefficient.

In contrast to what happened in the plantation fields, the slave masters preferred female slaves working in the sugar cane mills. Theirs was a particularly hazardous and life-threatening responsibility as it involved pushing the sugar cane stalks into wooden and metal rollers to crush and extract the sugar cane juice and also operating the sugar cane broiler.

This preference was because:

  • For economic reasons, though the slaves were bought, the human value of the slaves was never considered. The value of the end product was highly priced. Human slave life was easily replaced by the masters.
  • And since working the sugar mills was a highly hazardous activity lives were frequently lost as the mill rollers were know to have crushed to death and maimed many slaves. In most parts of the world where African slaves were used, female slaves were sold at a cheaper value  than their male counterparts. Therefore it stands to reason that the slaves masters would prefer the female slaves  regarded as "cheaper replacements"
  • Since work in the mills had to work 24 hours none stop, the environment had to be washed, swept frequently and  kept clean to sustain a minimum level of cleaness and higiene. Female slaves were considered ideal for this as well.

Can someone give a few specifics about the technology traded from the new world to the old during the Colombian exchange?
andrezito [222]
As Europeans expanded their market reach into the colonial sphere, they devised a new economic policy to ensure the colonies’ profitability. The philosophy of mercantilism shaped European perceptions of wealth from the 1500s to the late 1700s. Mercantilism held that only a limited amount of wealth, as measured in gold and silver bullion, existed in the world. In order to gain power, nations had to amass wealth by mining these precious raw materials from their colonial possessions. Mercantilists did not believe in free trade, arguing instead that the nation should control trade to create wealth and to enhance state power. In this view, colonies existed to strengthen the colonizing nation.
Colonial mercantilism, a set of protectionist policies designed to benefit the colonizing nation, relied on several factors:
Colonies rich in raw materials
Cheap labor
Colonial loyalty to the home government
Control of the shipping trade
