History

Answer:

C.An uneducated slave, played by a white man in a black face .

Explanation:

Throughout the 1830s and '40s, the white entertainer Thomas Dartmouth Rice (1808-1860) performed a popular song-and-dance act supposedly modeled after a slave. He named the character Jim Crow. Rice darkened his face, acted like a buffoon, and spoke with an exaggerated and distorted imitation of African American Vernacular English. In his Jim Crow persona, he also sang "Negro ditties" such as "Jump Jim Crow." Rice was not the first white comic to perform in blackface, but he was the most popular of his time, touring both the United States and England. As a result of Rice's success, "Jim Crow" became a common stage persona for white comedians' blackface portrayals of African Americans.

What part of the Fugitive Slave Act particularly angered Northerners? If they did not enforce the act, they were subject to jail
Ne4ueva [31]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The part that particularly angered Northerners was that if they did not enforce the act, they were subject to jail time or a fine. Even if Northerners opposed slavery, they could still be neutral in terms of what they do to help slaves or not. The Fugitive Slave Act forced them to go against their own beliefs with this potential jail time or fine, which really angered them.

Have a wonderful day! :D

The correct answer is D: States.

<em>*When referring to the geographic delimitation of North American's countries, the matter isn't uniform. Some specialists in the matter state that North America spans three countries: Canada, the United States and Mexico. Others also include Central American's countries in the delimitation. And, even others only consider the U.S. and Canada as part of North America. The following answer is based on the first delimitation given.*</em>

32 states in Mexico, 49 states in the United States (the U.S. has 50 states in total, however in North America are only 49 since Hawaii is geographically located in Oceania) and 10 provinces in Canada (Notice that Canada uses the term "Province" to describe its divisions).

9. What has been the greatest advantage of creating groups like the EEC, EU, and NAFTA?
mr_godi [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

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

What has been the greatest advantage of creating groups like the EEC, EU, and NAFTA?

The greatest advantage of creating groups like the EEC, EU, and NAFTA is that countries can form trade regions or trade "blocks" that benefit their economic interests. These trade agreements allow their members to freely trade with no or minimum tax barriers, benefiting their exportations and importations rate.

Let's put the example of NAFTA.

On December 17, 1992, Presidents of Mexico, the United States, and Canada signed NAFTA. They were Carlos Salinas, George H. W. Bush, and Brian Mulroney. This would be the largest free trade area in the world. The entering President, Bill Clinton, supported NAFTA principles but wanted the addition of some clauses on environment protection and better labor agreements. According to President Clinton, a result of the North America Free Agreement (NAFTA) would be increased jobs and lower prices.

NAFTA has been recently renegotiated by the three countries and the new agreement is called USMCA, United States, Mexico, and Canada Agreement.
