Racism is so embedded in our lives that even everyday expressions that might seem innocuous are in fact examples of the pervasiv

e power of language and the ways words and phrases associate blackness with negativity. Examples include words and phrases such as black sheep, blackballing, blackmail, blacklisting, black mark, and blackout. Other words and phrases include minority, ghetto, thug, and inner city. Discuss the ways Reynolds sheds light on how Black people have worked collectively to resist such negativity. To what extent do all citizens of a democratic society have a responsibility to disrupt the racism that is embedded in the English language?

How was the War Powers Resolution intended to limit presidential authority?
OverLord2011 [107]

Correct answer:

<h2>A. Congress needed to be notified of troop deployments.</h2>

Passed in 1973 over the veto of President Richard Nixon, the War Powers Resolution (its official name) blocks presidents from continuing the pursuance of a war without Congress's approval.  In practice, however, the War Powers Act has often been sidestepped by presidents.  The US Constitution leaves some tension in place between the legislative and executive branch when it comes to the country's involvement in war.  Article I of the Constitution gives Congress the power to declare war.  But Article II names the President the Commander-in-Chief, and presidents frequently have understood that role as containing the authority to deploy US forces without first getting congressional approval.  The War Powers Act has been an ongoing point of controversy as US forces have been sent into all sorts of conflict zones in the 21st century without formal declarations of war.  But the War Powers Act does require the President to notify Congress of troop deployments and limits the length of time troops can be deployed without Congressional approval.

In a two paragraph essay, you will identify and discuss the causes and resolutions to the great depression.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The Great Depression was caused by several different factors including buying on margin and the Stock Market Crash of 1929. These two events are tied together, as many American citizens bought stocks on margin. In this case, a person would pay 10% down on the price of a stock and then would borrow the other 90% from a bank. During the 1920's, this did not seem like a bad idea. This is due to the fact that stocks were quite consistently increasing in price. However, when the Stock Market Crash late in 1929, millions of Americans lost their life savings because they invested too much in stocks. Due to the stock market crash, banks were shut down, millions of citizens became homeless, and the unemployment rate reached nearly 20%.

Herbert Hoover's policies were considered quite ineffective, as he very rarely used the power of the federal government to interfer in the ecnomy. This is why the shanty towns developed during this time were called "Hoovervilles." Franklin D. Roosevelt's policies were more effective than Hoover's, as he implemented his New Deal policies. This resulted in the creation of federal agencies that helped to employ thousands of Americans as well as creating agencies that regulated the American economy to ensure that another economic collapse did not take place.
