Frederick Douglass valued his education when he was growing up.
LenKa [72]

Answer:

C. After his master said that “learning would spoil” him, Douglass continued his education on his own.

Explanation:

This seems like the correct answer because the answer choice says Douglass continued to learn on his own. Answer Choice D just says that he got interested in the American Revolution, not that he began to grow an interest in education. Answer Choice A has nothing to do with learning, only recording information. And Answer Choice B just says that Douglass's mistress read to him for a little bit until her husband told her to stop, which has nothing to do about education.

Explain how the red scare the sacco and vanzetti case and the rise of the kkk
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

On August 23, 1927, two Italian anarchists, Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, were executed in Boston, Massachusetts, in the electric chair. The charge was that they had committed 7 years earlier an armed robbery with fatalities in a shoe factory in South Braintree and another in South Brigdwater.

Shortly after the events, Sacco and Vanzetti are arrested. At the time of their arrest they were carrying a gun they had never used.

The U.S. authorities, in the midst of hysteria against the Russian Revolution and carrying out mass deportations of foreign immigrants accused of being "Reds," begin a persecution against workers' organizations. Sacco and Vanzetti become perfect scapegoats to "teach a lesson" to the "Reds" in the USA.

The robbery was committed by a mafia gang of Italian nationality headed by some Mike Boda, Mancini and Morelli.

Despite the fact that the authorities knew about the existence of the mafia gang and that they knew perfectly well that they had committed the robbery and the crime, they continued with the process to Sacco and Vanzetti. The court was composed of Judge Webster Thayer and Prosecutor Kartzmann. Both were known racists and did not hesitate to show their most anti-immigration and anti-anarchist faces. Among the jury were notorious members of the Ku Klux Klan. In addition, dozens of witnesses were paid to say that Sacco and Vanzetti had been recognized in the assault on the shoe factory. The defense's chances were nil. The sentence was final: death penalty for the two Italian anarchists.

But the trial was successfully reopened. And a lot of evidence came to light that gave the innocence to Sacco and Vanzetti. Among them, the following:

The real killers' own confession. Among them Celestino Madeiros, who was also executed on the same day as Sacco and Vanzetti.

The confession of many witnesses who had been bought to accuse Sacco and Vanzetti.

To this was added the fact that on the day of the events Sacco and Vanzetti were at their places of work, with a number of witnesses.

But nothing was possible. Sacco and Vanzetti's fate was sealed. On 23 August 1927 they were taken to the electric chair and executed.

This was the culmination of a history of crimes by the American State against anarchism. Let us not forget that in 1886, on May 1st, it ended with the arrests of numerous anarchists and the execution of five of them for an attack they had not committed. That after the murder of William McKinley by the alleged anarchist Leon Czolgozs in 1901, led to the decree of Anti-Anarchist Laws in the U.S. that provoked the persecution of libertarian organizations. And that after the triumph of the Russian Revolution the persecution against the American left was intense, culminating in the assassination of Sacco and Vanzetti, and the dismantling of the American revolutionary workers movement which had been very powerful up to that point.

In 1977 the governor of Massachusetts, Michael Dukakis, declared the innocence of Sacco and Vanzetti.

The growth of the kkk was an opportunistic consequence of the growth of social anti-immigrant sentiment, xenophobia and racism that had subsequent consequences with the persecution of "communists".

How did the act of supremacy of 1534 changed the religious patterns in england?
Anestetic [448]

Answer: The Act of Supremacy is the name of two different acts passed by the English Parliament, both of which establish the English monarch as the head of the Church of England.

Explanation: The original act passed in 1534 at the request of Henry VIII, while the second act passed during the reign of Elizabeth I. The second act was necessary to reestablish the English monarch as head of the church, as Parliament had nullified the original one when she assumed the throne upon the death of Edward VI.

The original act essentially created the Church of England and severed church ties with Rome. With the passing of the Act of Supremacy, the Pope was no longer considered the leader of Christians in England. This act, however, was more of a political move than a religious one, even though it established Henry as “the only supreme head on earth of the Church of England.”

What was at stake was the succession of the monarchy. Although many of the common people and members of the English aristocracy were interested in the teachings of Martin Luther, Henry strongly opposed Luther’s “Ninety-five Theses” and wrote a book in 1521 denouncing Luther’s views that prompted Pope Clement VII to name Henry “The Defender of the Faith.”

Despite his lustful reputation, Henry VIII was a deeply religious man and believed that the wrath of God had descended upon him because of his inability to produce a living male heir with his wife, Catherine of Aragon. Catherine had been betrothed to Henry’s elder brother, Arthur, who died before the two lived together as husband and wife. Henry pointed to Old Testament passage (Leviticus 20:21) that prohibited men from marrying their brother’s widow, indicating God was punishing him for an illegal marriage.

Henry went through the religious procedures of his time by seeking an annulment from Pope Clement VII. The Pope kept stalling the proceedings, partially because Catherine, who was already in her early forties, was the aunt of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, whom the Pope did not want to offend. He had also fallen in love with Anne Boleyn, who was young enough to bear children.

In 1527, Henry asked for annulment for the first time and with each refusal, increased pressure on Rome. By 1529, he was thoroughly frustrated and cited the Bible verse from Leviticus and other Old Testament sources to support his cause. He also cited historical sources, including Anglo-Saxon documents that gave spiritual supremacy to the English monarch over the church.

The English church first recognized Henry as its head in 1531, but the king continued to try to reach a compromise with the Pope, all to no avail. In 1532, the English church agreed to surrender its independence as well as authority regarding canon law to the monarch.

This paved the way for the Statute in Restraint of Appeals in early 1533, which removed the ability of the English to appeal to Rome on matters of matrimony, tithes and oblations. By this time, Anne Boleyn was already pregnant with Henry’s child, so Thomas Cranmer, the newly appointed Archbishop of Canterbury, declared the marriage to Catherine invalid, allowing Henry to marry Anne.
