JAMESTOWN is justifiably called "the first permanent English settlement" in the New World—a hard-won designation. As historian Alan Taylor recounts, of the first 104 colonists who landed in April 1607, only thirty-eight survived the winter. Of the 10,000 who left England for Jamestown in its first fifteen years, only twenty percent were still alive, and still in Jamestown, in 1622. The first months of the colony were chronicled by John Smith, Edward Wingfield, and in this selection by George Percy, who twice served as the colony's governor. After writing several accounts to justify his actions as governor, Percy left Jamestown for good in 1612. (John Smith, who also felt compelled to defend his leadership, had left for good in 1609.)
JAMESTOWN, 1609-1610. Known as the "starving time," the winter of 1609-1610 brought such "a world of miseries" to the settlers that hunger became the force governing the colonists. They ate their horses, then rats, then shoe leather. Some were driven to murder and digging up corpses. Others stashed food as they planned a secret return to England. Food was begged from the Indians or, if not forthcoming, stolen. The resulting cycle of attacks and counterattacks brought more misery and death. Who was to blame? John Smith? As the colony's previous governor he had compelled the men to work and was soon deposed and sent back to England, later justifying his dictatorial policies in repetitive histories and accounts. Or George Percy? Governor of the colony during the "starving time," he wrote this "true relation" partly as his defense against accusations of failed leadership. That Jamestown wasn't abandoned for good in June 1610 is due to the chance meeting on the James River of the ship carrying the sixty surviving colonists back to England, and the ship bringing provisions and 300 new colonists from England. But it was still many years before Jamestown was anything but "a world of miseries."
JAMESTOWN. Hampered by small royal coffers and by war with Spain and Ireland, England did not pursue an Atlantic coast colony for two decades after the loss of the 1587 Roanoke colony. Then in 1607 a new group of investors (the Virginia Company of London) received a charter from the new king (James I) to make a new attempt at a Virginia colony (Jamestown). This time the venture succeeded, but only after years of financial and human loss. This undated set of instructions was written by a Company member, perhaps Richard Hakluyt (hak-loot), to direct the leaders in their initial arrival, placement, and building of the colony. It also provides strict guidelines for dealing with the Powhatan Indians, who had massacred the Spanish settlers in a nearby settlement, Ajacan, thirty-five years earlier.

Provide an example of systemic racism you've witnessed, participated in, or been
the victim of.
Answer:
Systematic racism refers to a government system/structure that create massive disadvantage for the people with a certain racial traits.
A strong Example of this would be United States during The Segregation period.
During that time, United States government created separate Public infrastructures (such as schools, bus, and hospitals) between white and black citizens. But, the quality of the infrastructures allocated for black citizens were typically lower in quality. This caused a lot of damage for the black communities in the long run. For example, lower quality schools will make the students became less prepared to compete in their career when they graduated.

A thematic map of the U S. Climate regions are labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F. A is the Rocky Mountain region. B is most of the Western U S. C is the Northern plains region and Northwest. D is in the South. E is along the border of Mexico and into Nevada. F is along the west coast. Which climate region is labeled with the letter A on the map above? A. humid subtropical B. Mediterranean C. semiarid D. highland
Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. I answered from a general geographic point of view.
Answer:
D. highland
Explanation:
Remember, we are told that on the thematic map, A is the Rocky Mountain region.
Since the term "mountain" is often synonymous with "highland," it is, therefore logical to conclude that the letter A would be referring to a highland climate region. In other words, it is referring to the climate of the Rocky Mountain (which can also be called a highland).

I got this writing assignment, but my brain is going completely blank. It’s supposed to be about an issue that is important to me, so I chose human rights, but I’m having trouble coming up with a way to include ideas. It’s supposed to be at least a paragraph.
I’d prefer someone not to write it for me but to give me some more stuff to implement or ways to implement things. I want the first sentence to be the topic sentence and the 2nd to be the closing sentence. I also want to include some stuff about women’s struggles, queer rights, and the struggles of other minorities.
If you guys can’t help me that’s fine, I just thought it was worth a try. :)
Answer:
Well, look at places such as I believe Russia, where LGBTQ+ rights are not quite as good as places such as Canada, look at the treatment of POC, things such as racism that came with the virus (such as people being afraid of Chinese people and thinking they all may have it or people calling it the china virus), issues with the BLM movement and why it is important, there are some good examples in Canada, such as Joyce Echaquan, which I would totally look into, as it was a very sad, racist thing that isn't talked about as much. Look at earlier things in history such as the suffragettes (women right in Britain) or things such as Nazi Germany. You can also include things such as abortions, and how making it illegal will lead to more women doing at home abortions, leading to their untimely death and how that can be seen as having more control over them.

Egyptian writing was written from left to right like the English language.
Answer:
well that will be true
Explanation:
Hieroglyphs are written in rows or columns and can be read from left to right or from right to left. You can distinguish the direction in which the text is to be read because the human or animal figures always face towards the beginning of the line. Also the upper symbols are read before the lower.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Egyptian writing was done from right to left, and sometimes up and down in columns. Sometimes it was even done from right to left, and then down a space to go back to the right, and so on, in a serpentine shape. But it was not written from left to right, like it is done in English.

Please select the best answer from the choices provided
Answer: Ideology is a system of beliefs or ideas that adjusts the social, religious, moral, political, or economic interests possess by a group or by society. Ideology is also called an agenda.
Explanation:
The works of Harold Walsby and George Walford are endeavors to explore the connection between social system and ideology. Charles Blattberg provides an account that differs from political ideologies from political philosophies. Meanwhile, David W. Minar explains six different ways where the word "ideology" has been employed:
· As the f internal logical structure that ideas have within a set
· As a collection of certain ideas with certain kinds of content, usually normative
· By the role ideas play in the structure of an organization
· By the role ideas play in human-social interaction
· As the locus of social interaction
· As a meaning, whose purpose is persuasion
Terry Eagleton summarizes some definitions of ideology:
· The process of production of meanings, signs, and values in social life
· A body of ideas characteristic of a particular social group or class
· Ideas that help legitimate a dominant political power
· False ideas that help legitimate a dominant political power
· Systematically distorted communication
· Ideas that offer a position for a subject
· Forms of thought motivated by social interests
· Identity thinking
· Socially necessary illusion
· The conjuncture of discourse and power
· The medium in which conscious social actors make sense of their world
· Action-oriented sets of beliefs
· Semiotic closure
· The indispensable medium in which individuals live out their relations to a social structure
· The process that converts social life to a natural reality
· The confusion of linguistic and phenomenal reality
Willard A. Mullins argued that ideology should be compared to the related (but distinct) issues of utopia and historical myth. An ideology is comprised of four basic characteristics:
· guide action
· be logically coherent
· have power over cognition
· be capable of guiding one's evaluations
