The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The Bill of Rights is the first 10 Amendments to the United States Constitution. It was created after the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in  Philadelphia, Pennsylvania when the states had to evaluate the new Constitution in order to ratify it.

The Bill of Rights was drafted by Federalists James Madison as a way to convince Antifederalists to approve the new Constitution.

Federalists such as Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and Jhon Jay supported the idea of having a strong central government for the United States. On the other hand, Antifederalists like Thomas Jefferson opposed that view. They believed in a simpler form of government in which citizens could have rights and liberties.

That is when Madison came up with the idea of drafting the Bill of Rights.

8. What was Henry Johnson's life like when he returned after the war?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

William Henry Johnson (circa July 15, 1892 – July 1, 1929), commonly known as Henry Johnson, was a United States Army soldier who performed heroically in the first African American unit of the United States Army to engage in combat in World War I. On watch in the Argonne Forest on May 14, 1918, he fought off a German raid in hand-to-hand combat, killing multiple German soldiers and rescuing a fellow soldier while experiencing 21 wounds, in an action that was brought to the nation's attention by coverage in the New York World and The Saturday Evening Post later that year. On June 2, 2015 he was awarded the Medal of Honor by President Barack Obama in a posthumous ceremony at the White House.

In 1918, racism against African Americans was common among white U.S. soldiers in the U.S. military, but French attitudes differed. Johnson was recognized by the French with a Croix de guerre with star and bronze palm, and was the first U.S. soldier in World War I to receive that honor.

Johnson died, poor and in obscurity, in 1929. From 1919 on, Henry Johnson's story has been part of wider consideration of treatment of African Americans in the Great War. There was a long struggle to achieve awards for him from the U.S. military. He was finally awarded the Purple Heart in 1996. In 2002, the U.S. military awarded him the Distinguished Service Cross. Previous efforts to secure the Medal of Honor failed, but in 2015 he was posthumously honored with the award.
