Reread paragraph 14 from Baker's speech. What can be inferred from this paragraph?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

“SPEECH AT THE MARCH ON WASHINGTON”

C. Baker believes speaking out against injustice is effective.

Explanation:

In her 1963 “SPEECH AT THE MARCH ON WASHINGTON,” Josephine Baker said "They were mad because I told the truth."  But, speaking out against injustice is effective.  It yields the desired outcome if not in one's lifetime, in the lifetime of one's children and grandchildren.  Injustice should never be stomached by any human being.  According to Baker, you do not need gun to fight injustice, use pen instead.

Josephine Baker was an American-born French entertainer, who fled the US amidst unmitigated racial discrimination and segregation.  She went to Paris, France where she became an instant success, gaining an opportunity that was denied her in her native country.

Activity 5: Why are toquilla straw hats called "Panama hats"? 1. Answer this question How much do you know about the Panama Hat?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer: 1. Panama Hats are straw hats made in that country. 2.There is no technology involved to produce Panama hats. 3. The history of Panama hats did not start in Panama and then produced in Ecuador, but vice-versa. 4. Yes, the production of Panama hats contributes to the growth of a community's economy because they're made by people who don't have a prosperous income.

Explanation: Panama hats are handmade; A weaver puts hours of work into every single hat, and they finish it in 7 or 8 months. They also have to brim them, fix imperfections, and decorate them. Therefore, they do not use any technology. The history of Panama hats started in Ecuador, where they were made of leaves from the Carludovica palmata plant, to later on become popular and extend to Panama. The production of these hats contributes to the community's economy since the people who make them are people who lack a regular salary and depend on sales to keep up.
