Cross of gold speech by William Jennings Bryan questions

History
1 answer:
zzz [600]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

1. He was addressing the delegates to the 1896 Democratic convention.

2. The whole point of the speech was to glorify the common individual -- the type of man that Built the United States. That's why he refers to bi-metalism as the standard which should be put in place. Silver was not nearly as valuable as gold. The common people could buy and use silver coins, but gold was beyond them. That was the currency of the rich.

3. During the crucifixion of Christ, the Roman Officers mocked Jesus and mocked the idea that he was the King of the Jews.  They said he needed a crown, so they made one of the stems of rose bushes (or some plant that had thorns).

4. This line because it is so simple and powerful in itself. <em>You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns; you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold.</em>

<em />

5. I suppose the working man, the man who does the back breaking labor of industry might be interested in what Bryant has to say.

Which of the following directly contributed to soil erosion on the Great Plains in the 1930s?
vovikov84 [41]
<span>Drought caused by sparse rainfall, hot summers, and high winds predominantly led to the soil erosion in the Great Plains during the 1930's. Human factors such as over farming, and complete uprooting of plants left nothing to ground the sandy soil. This combined with the high winds caused large amounts of particulate to be picked up and blown away from the area leaving it barren.</span>

Which is the BEST description of Abraham Lincoln's stance regarding slavery during the Lincoln-Douglas debates of 1858?
Nonamiya [84]
The correct answer is A.

One of Lincoln's most famous quotes from these 7 debates includes the idea that "A house divided against itself cannot stand." This quote shows that if the US continues to allow for the expansion of slavery in some territories but the outlawing it in others, there will be significant issues. This quote is seen as a foreshadowing of the American Civil War, which starts roughly 3 years after these debates.
