What were the advantages and disadvantages of the legal strategy for civil rights activities in the 1950s and 1960s?
Fynjy0 [20]

During Reconstruction, black people became histortical leaders. They held public office and pursued equality and the right to vote through legislative modifications.

One advantage of this legal strategy was the passing of the 14th and 15th Amendments, which gave them equal protection under the law (14th Amendment) and the right to vote (15th Amendment). But, besides this, there still was a large amount of white people who disagreed with equality for their previous slaves.

One disadvantage was the opposers' strategy to destroy this progress, which was the setting of the "Jim Crow" laws in the late 19th century. Blacks were marginalized, they had to use the public services and facilities under different conditions, go to different schools and live in different towns. Marriage between white and black people was illegal and they could not vote due to their inability to pass literacy tests for voters.

Thanks to the previous hard work to end with inequality of President Franklin D. Roosevelt (gave blacks the possibility to get equal employments), Harry Truman (ended discrimination in the military), Rosa Park (protested against segregated seating), Martin Luther King Jr. (led the American Civil Rights Movement), and more people, The Fair Housing Act became law on April 11, 1968, and it prevented all kinds of discrimination.

Black people and activists eventually achieved their equality, but it took a lot of suffering and loss.

Social pros and cons of the transatlantic slave trade
Dmitry [639]

Some of the social pros and cons of the Transatlantic Slave trade include:

Social pros:

  • Intermingling of cultures.
  • Exposure of cultures to other cultures.

Social cons:

  • Unequal treatment of certain cultures.
  • Conflict

<h3>What were some social cons and pros of the slave trade?</h3>

The Transatlantic Slave trade led to Africans being able to interact with Europeans, Native Americans, and other African tribes they didn't know existed. This then led to an intermingling of cultures in what was one of the earliest forms of globalization.

The social cons outweighed the pros however as the intermingling led to the unequal treatment of cultures. For instance, Africans were looked down upon and their cultures were labeled as witchcraft. Conflict also arose between cultures due to the superiority complex.

How did muckrakers help initiate the Progressive Era?
Phantasy [73]

The Muckrakers were a group of journalists and writers that provided an important spark and ignited the Progressive movement. They were interested in exposing the problems in American society and urged the public to identify solutions.

They helped initiate the Progressive Era by analyzing if those bad conditions were linked to corrupt politics, poor working conditions in factories, bad living conditions of the working class and others.

They sparkled this analysis into people who read the newspapers and that wanted to change for their lives and because of that, an agenda was created.
