Answer:

Both the 1770 and 1850s depictions of the Boston Massacre and Crispus Attucks were used as propaganda to sway the public towards a particular conclusion, first towards the side of independence from Britain and then later towards abolishing slavery.

Paul Revere’s engraving of the Boston Massacre of 1770 deserves that honor. Historians still debate the murder charges against eight British soldiers accused of firing fatally into a crowd, despite John Adams’s celebrated defense of them. What is undisputed is that when Revere adapted a drawing by a fellow artist as an engraving of his own, he falsely represented the troops in formation and their commanding officer giving the order to fire. These crucial distortions turned an indictment of individuals into one of the British authorities and the crown, inspiring patriotic resistance in the years to come.

Misinformation is as American as apple pie.

Which of the following was an Islamic state or city in Africa between the 16th and 18th centuries? A. Iran B. Turkey C. Songhay
nignag [31]

The correct answer is - C. Songhai.

The Songhai Empire was one of the largest empires that the African continent witnessed on its soil. The empire stretched from the Atlantic coast, where Senegal and Gambia are now, occupying the northern portion of Western Africa, and large portion of the western Sahel, having the Niger River running in the middle of the empire.

The people living in this empire were Muslims, and they had accepted it before the empire was formed through earlier contacts with Muslims. As the empire grew stronger and larger, it incorporated lot of people that were not Muslims in it. The Songhai used their power and managed to convert most of the people on their territory to the Islam, thus spreading out the religion and strengthening it in the region.
