Summarize this up into one sentence.


There's been a great debate among amongst historians for a very long time about the relative status of black men and women and poor white men and women in the period before 1660 in Virginia. It was once assumed that blacks were slaves for life, and whites were servants for 3, 4, 5, 7 years, depending on the contract. That was that. But the more people delved into the records, they found that, in fact, these statuses were not at all clear. Some blacks were slaves for life. Some seem to have been servants. Some seem to have achieved a freedom of some sort, of very various degrees of dependency on former masters and patrons and whatnot. Servants were in these contracts. They seem to have been treated dreadfully, and in some ways maybe even worse than some of the blacks, because as their contracts ran out, [they were] almost -- I don't want to be vulgar -- but treated like cars that you might rent, and you know that you you're going to run out on the contract. In any case, the experience of these whites was terrible.


My point is that in the early years of Virginia, these kinds of statuses were unclear, even to the people that were alive then. There was a range of possibilities. And you would certainly not assume that just simply because a man or woman was an African American, that he or she was a slave.


Now, if we turned forward a century into the 18th century you find a hardening of these kinds of categories. The racial assumptions are there. A man's skin determines his status. But that was not true in the early years.

What made it so hard for Hinduism to spread?

Answers

There is no place for a convert in Hindu society, which is made up of castes, each of which is a closed corporation. As a result, the caste system has hindered Hindus from growing and absorbing other religious groups. Evangelism was not a priority for Hinduism and Judaism in the past. Both of these religions are more culturally and ethnically based. The missionary enthusiasm was missing, just as it was in Europe's pagan faiths and China's religions. Nothing in the holy writings makes it the followers' responsibility to disseminate the faith.

Describe the design of the three types of settlements that existed in the Indus civilization.

Answers

Answer:

Large cities, small towns, and farming villages were the three types of settlements. Archaeologists discovered three sizable cities of comparable size. They are not exactly alike, but they share many of the same traits. Each city was surrounded by massive brick walls, while smaller walls encased individual houses. The cities were laid out in a grid with wide enough streets for carts. Additionally, they housed water and sewage systems, which included reservoirs for water storage, toilets connected to brick-lined sewers, and public baths. Indus' civilization placed a high value on sanitation, as evidenced by this. Smaller towns modeled after the larger cities have also been discovered by archaeologists. These towns share numerous characteristics with cities, but on a much smaller scale. There were farming villages between the big cities. These villages may have supplied food to areas with a larger population. They look like small towns, but they were built in a very different way from the bigger cities and towns.

How did George Washington define the executive branch for future president

Answers

Washington had nothing to gain from the American Revolution, at least in a material sense. He had achieved both wealth and fame as a British subject in colonial Virginia. Yet he was among the first to raise the possibility of armed resistance and accepted command of the Continental Army. He served for the eight and a half years of the Revolution without pay. Though his army was inexperienced, often outnumbered, and poorly supplied, Washington was able to avoid defeat, wear down the British forces, and eventually achieve victory. With independence secured in 1783 by a peace treaty with Britain, Washington appeared before Congress and publicly resigned his military position, returning to Mount Vernon a private citizen of the new nation. His plantation had suffered greatly during his absence and the war.

Answer:

    The executive branch is apart of the three primary parts of the U.S government (in addition to the judiciary and legislative branch). The executive branch executes and performs the nation's laws. The chief of the executive branch is the president of the United States. Other members include the entire cabinet and the vice president. The vice president acts as support for the president, giving him advice too, and prepares to take on the roles of the president if the president must stop serving.

(here is the prompt)
Were the Founding Fathers justified in rebelling against the British government and declaring independence?
In a well-developed essay that includes an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion, explain whether or not the Founding Fathers were justified in declaring independence. Be sure to address counterclaims in your essay and include reasons and evidence to support your argument.

(here is the essay)
Imagine you are part of the colonies in 1765 and the Stamp Act was just enacted. You're enraged so you go along with the constant chant of "Taxation without representation is tyranny". Soon, chants for representation turn to chants of complete separation! These chants lead to mass anarchy with people declaring their right to be free from Britain.

Declaring independence was justified especially after the Intolerable Acts. The British passed several laws such as the Boston Port Act, Massachusetts Government Act, Administration of Justice Act, and the Quebec Act just to name a few .These atrocious laws required the colonies to do things such as closing the port of Boston, having its royally-appointed governor have wide-ranging powers,and granted emancipation for the Catholic, French-speaking settlers of the province.While some may say that the war was justified in declaring independence was not. The British were the first ones to fire, sparking the war therefore making it justified. maybe considered Declaring independence was not justified given they could have stayed and then everything would have stayed the same.

However looking at the details you can see that declaring independence was very much justified particularly because they wanted to get away from the Intolerable Acts and the Boston Massacre and they had every right to.

In conclusion the Founding Fathers were very much justified in rebelling against the British as well as declaring Independence. ideaz

Why do you think education reform stopped when the civil war began?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Think  about the nature of war.

All the young people are syphoned off to go fight the war.Some are killed but many are injured. Do you think they are thinking very much about education, when their reality is so much deeper than what the books used in education are.People in the regions where a war is fought lack stability that education requires. Once the Jews were in ghettos, one of their first priorities was to set up an education system. They need stability before that could happen. The environment was terrible, but at least they were in one place. Armies don't have that stability very often and again they had much deeper things to consider.

How did Southern landowners view African Americans in the South during Reconstruction?

Answers

Answer:

During the Reconstruction period of 1865–1877, federal law provided civil rights protection in the U.S. South for freedmen, the African Americans who had formerly been slaves. In the 1870s, Democrats gradually returned to power in the Southern states, sometimes as a result of elections in which paramilitary groups intimidated opponents, attacking blacks or preventing them from voting. Gubernatorial elections were close and disputed in Louisiana for years, with extreme violence being unleashed during the campaigns. In 1877, a national compromise to gain Southern support in the presidential election resulted in the last of the federal troops being withdrawn from the South. White Democrats had regained political power in every Southern state. These conservative, white, Democratic Redeemer governments legislated Jim Crow laws, which segregated black people from the white population, and upheld them constitutionally as “separate but equal” rights.

How a Bill Becomes a Law Creating laws is the U.S. House of Representatives’ most important job. All laws in the United States begin as bills. Before a bill can become a law, it must be approved by the U.S. House of Representatives, the U.S. Senate, and the President. Let’s follow a bill’s journey to become law. The Bill Begins Laws begin as ideas. These ideas may come from a Representative—or from a citizen like you. Citizens who have ideas for laws can contact their Representatives to discuss their ideas. If the Representatives agree, they research the ideas and write them into bills. The Bill Is Proposed When a Representative has written a bill, the bill needs a sponsor. The Representative talks with other Representatives about the bill in hopes of getting their support for it. Once a bill has a sponsor and the support of some of the Representatives, it is ready to be introduced. The Bill Is Introduced In the U.S. House of Representatives, a bill is introduced when it is placed in the hopper—a special box on the side of the clerk’s desk. Only Representatives can introduce bills in the U.S. House of Representatives. When a bill is introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, a bill clerk assigns it a number that begins with H.R. A reading clerk then reads the bill to all the Representatives, and the Speaker of the House sends the bill to one of the House standing committees. –"How Laws Are Made,” Office of the Clerk Read the passage.
