Answer:
The power elite model.
Explanation:
Wright Mills, an American sociologist, developed the idea that would be opposed to pluralism (power dispersed in a society), and he called it the power elite theory. This relates to Marx's ideas of a society ruled by a small group of individuals who share a common set of political and economic interest given that, what Mills defines as power elite, is also a small group of individuals who hold the majority of power; who could be within the government, large corporations, military, etc. This elite might even compete among themselves to guide the direction of a society.
Answer:
This scenario is an example of a self-fulfilling prophecy
Explanation:
A Self-Fulfilling Prophecy is simply having an idea,notion, expectation or a view about an individual or anything and most times these individuals or entities ends up behaving in the way we thought about them because we believe they will( result in the other person or entity acting in ways that confirm the views or expectations). it is a sociopsychological phenomenon.
Self fulfilling proheccy can also be describe as prediction or fortune telling. it is our beliefs and expectations been affected or influenced by our behavior at the subconscious level. AN example of this prophecy is when John thinks his son will kill him in future and ends up leaving his son in the forest for wild animals to devour. the child ends up been rescued by a passerby and raise up by the rescuer. in future time, the child ends up accidentally killing his own father without knowing who he really was.
One reason that some african americans were patriots was because a few of the high people during that time were racist. (This does not just go to african americans. White people were also patriots)
One reason that some african americans were loyalists was because some of the people that were in high power were actually african americans. These high powered african americans were not interfered with, due to there were many other people that bad guys wanted to turn into patriots. (DURING THIS TIME, very few african americans were in high power)
I hope that this helped! Please! Please! Please do not feel offended! I was only answering your question! And I caps locked "during this time" because this racist situation was only a big problem during the american revolution.
