In a paragraph of seven to ten sentences, answer the following questions in relation to this passage from John F. Kennedy's 1963

Civil Rights Address: What idea must be changed, according to Kennedy, in this passage? Why is it necessary for this change to occur? What long-term impact does Kennedy expect to make by changing this idea? "One hundred years of delay have passed since President Lincoln freed the slaves, yet their heirs, their grandsons, are not fully free. They are not yet freed from the bonds of injustice. They are not yet freed from social and economic oppression. And this Nation, for all its hopes and all its boasts, will not be fully free until all its citizens are free. We preach freedom around the world, and we mean it, and we cherish our freedom here at home, but are we to say to the world, and much more importantly, to each other that this is the land of the free except for the Negroes; that we have no second-class citizens except Negroes; that we have no class or caste system, no ghettoes, no master race except with respect to Negroes?"

According to Kennedy's address, the idea that must be changed is that black people are less worthy than white. Basically, it's an idea that freedom has limits. If freedom exists in the United States, it must exist and be applicable to everyone, including the African American citizens. If it excludes anyone, based on any feature, it is not freedom at all. Freedom is the basis of American Constitution. It is one of the pillars of American national identity. So, it must be available and guaranteed for everyone. The change is necessary because it is time to start employing this idea that had been abstract for an entire century. By changing this idea, the American society would become a society of equals, with each and every citizen's fundamental human rights being protected and guaranteed.

What are the 6 partial causes of WWII
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The Treaty of Versailles ended World War I between Germany and the Allied Powers. Because Germany had lost the war, the treaty was very harsh against Germany. Germany was forced to "accept the responsibility" of the war damages suffered by the Allies. The treaty required that Germany pay a huge sum of money called reparations.

Japanese Expansion

In the period before World War II, Japan was growing rapidly. However, as an island nation they did not have the land or the natural resources to sustain their growth. Japan began to look to grow their empire in order to gain new resources. They invaded Manchuria in 1931 and China in 1937.

Fascism

With the economic turmoil left behind by World War 1, some countries were taken over by dictators who formed powerful fascist governments. These dictators wanted to expand their empires and were looking for new lands to conquer. The first fascist government was Italy which was ruled by the dictator Mussolini. Italy invaded and took over Ethiopia in 1935. Adolf Hitler would later emulate Mussolini in his takeover of Germany. Another Fascist government was Spain ruled by the dictator Franco.

These are the only reasons I know. Hope this helps! Stay safe!

nadezda [96]

Answer:

I need more information to even know where to get started with this. What kind of art? Painting? Sculpture? Writing? Spoken word poetry? This is a very broad "thesis", and unfortunately I'm pretty sure it doesn't qualify as a thesis at all.
