Free_Kalibri [48]
The 13th Amendment was the amendment that abolished slavery in 1864.  The problem with these Georgia's Black Codes is that they were just another way of keeping the blacks in a cycle of slavery. Slavery was prohibited in all instances except as a punishment for crime. Most of the African-Americans after the war have been jobless and this law basically made it possible for them to be arrested for being jobless and put to slavery once again.

How did John F. Kennedy’s foreign policy agenda envision new initiatives aimed at countering communist influence in the world? H
Lyrx [107]

Explanation:

John F. Kennedy was president from 1961 to 1963. His foreign policy measures were conducted during cold war tensions. One of his important strategies was to reduce the possibility of war by miscalculation. He resolved the Cuban Crisis peacefully and also de-escalated Berlin tensions. Some of the wrong moves of his foreign policy were the invasion of pigs of bay and miscalculation of the situation of Vietnam,

While Eisenhower depended on retaliation in his foreign policy but he also lost Latin America, Africa, and Asia to communists. Th is was the failure of his foreign policy. Similarly, Kennedy gave nod to the invasion of Pigs of Bay which was a major military failure full of faulty intelligence. He also failed to draw a line against the communists in Laos which Eisenhower administration had urged. Eisenhower had made successful negotiations with the Soviet Union while the limited test ban treaty signed by John F. Kennedy only outlawed the atmospheric testing.

erastova [34]

Answer:

women who compete in and admire the Miss America pageants are expected to be independent-minded.

Explanation:

Here are the only requirements to enter Miss America:

- Be between the ages of 17 and 25  

- Must Be a legal citizen

- Meet legal requirement to compete a certain city or state

- Be in a good physical health

-  Have to fulfill the time commitment and job responsibilities determined by the competition.

-- Meet additional criteria set forth by the organization (pretty vague)

On top of them, all of the women were required to post a picture and pre-selected based on their body measurement. These requirements indicates that the physical traits are clearly the most determinant to win the pageant.

If the paegant wanted their candidates and viewers to be independent-minded, they will put other criterias to measure women's accomplishment in societies.

For example, they can include how much businesses that the candidate has built, what type of research that they published, the type of skills that they possess compared to experts in similar field, etc.
