Answer:
Answers may vary, but your response should include the following points: In To the Oracle at Delphi, Ferlinghetti points to ancient Greece as the beginning of civilization on which America as a country and a society was built. In the Oracle, he turns to a figure thought to provide wise counsel, which he thinks America needs. He speaks to the Oracle as a witness to what has happened to the true America or the one that sprang from Europe (Europa). It is the America of the underprivileged, whose voices often go unheard. It is a "vaster" or bigger society, but it is not greater or better. We have technology and money, but we have no art, which is meant to encourage us to feel, particularly for one another. He seeks guidance on how we can eliminate inequality and maintain our democracy instead of moving steadily toward plutocracy, which means that the wealthy will rule over everyone else. With "new dreams to dream" and "new myths to live by," American society can be restored or saved.

Why did Churchill oppose the appeasement of Hitler in 1938 (pp. 390-392)? How did this influence his proposed foreign policy with regard to the Soviet Union after the war in "The Iron Curtain" (pp. 452-453)?
In regards to the first part of the question...
Winston Churchill was against appeasement as he didn't believe the policy would be successful. When Hitler took over the rest of Czechoslovakia in 1939, it proved the policy of appeasement had failed.
In regards to the second part of the question...
There were parallels between the actions of Germany and the Soviet Union, although at different time periods. Churchill made the link, proclaiming that we could not "appease" the Soviet Union, when it came to their actions in Berlin. {Study the Berlin Airlift if you want a more detailed explanation.}

Answer:
bring Christianity to the East and the newly found lands.
Explanation:
The Age of Discovery also known as the Age of Exploration spanned between the 15th to 17th centuries. This period was marked by the distant travels of the Europeans to the East, Africa, and the New World. Europe was just recovering from the Black Deaths which marked the 1340's. The Christian church was not severely affected by the Black Deaths. When Constatinople was defeated by the Ottoman empire in 1453, the Europeans embarked on a journey to find new trade routes to expand the sales of their spices, because the Ottoman empire made trading difficult.
The new routes extended to Africa and Asia. As they made these explorations they carried along with them the Christian religion. It was on one of these explorations by Christopher Columbus to the West that led to the discovery of the America's.

In Okin’s view, the needs and interests of children must, unfortunately, be set aside in order to eradicate the gendered division of labor and ensure women’s equality with men.
This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.
In Okin’s view, the needs and interests of children must, unfortunately, be set aside in order to eradicate the gendered division of labor and ensure women’s equality with men.
True or False?
Answer: False
Explanation:
The most well-known conservative objection to sex equality is the idea that it would damage the family, as it requires women voluntarily subordinating themselves to men and children.
Okin calls for a reform of the traditional family structure because it´s unfair. However, children are not set aside in her theory. Actually, she demands childcare leave and on-site daycare at work, as well as sex and gender education for children, among many other plans destined to help build women’s equality.

What is NOT one of the assumptions that may lead someone to avoid thinking critically about moral issues? Group of answer choices That because there are multiple opinions, each one must be equally valid That if we cannot be certain about a moral position, we cannot judge it better or worse than others. That moral reasoning is unrelated to the kind of practical reasoning we use in everyday life. That critical thinking and taking a stand on a moral issue is compatible with open-mindedness and intellectual humility.
Answer:
That moral reasoning is unrelated to the kind of practical reasoning we use in everyday life.
Explanation:
In simple words, critically thinking is a very difficult psychological process for an individuals and doing it for a topic like moral issues, which is subjective in its own manner, makes it way more difficult.
However, saying that moral reasoning is difficult due to its differences with practical world application is completely wrong as morals are clearly defined by social norms on a basic level and one can conduct and implement them easily on a certain level.

What is the meaning of Elements?A chemical element is indeed a species of atoms, including the pure substance made entirely of that species, that have a specific number of protons within their nuclei. Chemical elements, in contrast to chemical compounds, cannot be reduced by any chemical process into simpler molecules.
A fundamental object that is difficult to divide into smaller bits is known as an element. An element is a substance that cannot be broken down through non-nuclear reactions in chemistry and physics. A discrete component of a larger system or collection is referred to as an element in computers and mathematics.
A pure element is a substance that is made up of atoms of the same kind. Since sodium exclusively contains sodium atoms, it is a pure element. While various atom types make up cement and glass, respectively.

which behavior is encouraged by a high rate of inflation ?
banks provide lower interest rates
governments establish a welfare system
people spend money instead of saving it
businesses choose to decrease production
Answer:
people spend money instead of saving it
Explanation:
Inflation decreases the purchasing power of a given currency. When inflation looms, people tend to buy and stock up those necessary things that their value is perceived to remain relatively the same. Some of these things can range from food and groceries, to fuel for cars and power. Some other commodities like gold and equities can be invested in, to maintain the value of the money spent on them over time. People will rather spend their money than save when inflation strikes because the value of the money saved now will decrease in the future due to inflation, so inflation creates a spending frenzy, and people will rather spend their money than save it.

All of the following are positive effects of interest groups EXCEPT:
A. hyperpluralism
B. bringing awareness to issues of public importance
C. protecting democratic freedoms
D. promoting causes important to the well-being of American citizens
[ please and thank you :)) ]
The correct answer is A. Hyperpluralism
Explanation:
Interest groups are associations that defend and make visible a specific cause or interest, which helps society to be aware of certain issues and promotes positive changes. For example, interest groups in pro of environmental protection can influence governments to create laws to protect the environment. Also, these groups promote the democratic participation as citizens influence the government.
Despite these positive effects, interest groups can lead to negative effects, one of these is hyperpluralism that occurs when there are too many ideologies, causes, and interest groups, which causes a clash of interest. At the same time, hyperpluralism influences negatively the government because due to the diversity of interests the government might favor only certain interests which causes imbalance and limits democracy.

Assess the requirements established by black codes in the South. In addition, speculate about their connection to what would later become the Jim Crow South.
Answer:
The Black Codes and Jim Crow Laws
After the United States Civil War, state governments that had been part of the Confederacy tried to limit the voting rights of black citizens and prevent contact between black and white citizens in public places.
Colored Water Fountain
The effort to protect the rights of blacks under Reconstruction was largely crushed by a series of oppressive laws and tactics called Jim Crow and the black codes. Here, an African-American man drinks from a water fountain marked "colored" at a streetcar terminal in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in 1939.
Black codes and Jim Crow laws were laws passed at different periods in the southern United States to enforce racial segregation and curtail the power of black voters.
After the Civil War ended in 1865, some states passed black codes that severely limited the rights of black people, many of whom had been enslaved. These codes limited what jobs African Americans could hold, and their ability to leave a job once hired. Some states also restricted the kind of property black people could own. The Reconstruction Act of 1867 weakened the effect of the black codes by requiring all states to uphold equal protection under the 14th Amendment, particularly by enabling black men to vote. (U.S. law prevented women of any race from voting in federal elections until 1920.)
During Reconstruction, many black men participated in politics by voting and by holding office. Reconstruction officially ended in 1877, and southern states then enacted more discriminatory laws. Efforts to enforce white supremacy by legislation increased, and African Americans tried to assert their rights through legal challenges. However, this effort led to a disappointing result in 1896, when the Supreme Court ruled, in Plessy v. Ferguson, that so-called “separate but equal” facilities—including public transport and schools—were constitutional. From this time until the Civil Rights Act of 1964, discrimination and segregation were legal and enforceable.
One of the first reactions against Reconstruction was to deprive African-American men of their voting rights. While the 14th and 15th Amendments prevented state legislatures from directly making it illegal to vote, they devised a number of indirect measures to disenfranchise black men. The grandfather clause said that a man could only vote if his ancestor had been a voter before 1867—but the ancestors of most African-Americans citizens had been enslaved and constitutionally ineligible to vote. Another discriminatory tactic was the literacy test, applied by a white county clerk. These clerks gave black voters extremely difficult legal documents to read as a test, while white men received an easy text. Finally, in many places, white local government officials simply prevented potential voters from registering. By 1940, the percentage of eligible African-American voters registered in the South was only three percent. As evidence of the decline, during Reconstruction, the percentage of African-American voting-age men registered to vote was more than 90 percent.

How did westward expansion divide Democrats and Whigs? A) Democrats favored expansion in order to make an alliance with Mexico; Whigs opposed expansion and a Mexican alliance because they believed they were too different culturally. B) Whigs favored expansion in order to reach California and trade in the Pacific; Democrats opposed expansion because they only wanted to sell cotton on the Atlantic. C) Democrats favored expansion in order to increase their power in Congress and expand slavery; Whigs opposed expansion because they feared losing power in Congress. D) Whigs favored expansion because they wanted to build a railroad from the East to the West; Democrats opposed expansion because they believed sea trade was most beneficial.
Answer:
The correct answer is C. Democrats favored expansion in order to increase their power in Congress and expand slavery; Whigs opposed expansion because they feared losing power in Congress.
Explanation:
The expansionist process that began in the United States from the 1800s, with the Louisiana Purchase and the acquisition of Florida, acquired political connotation from the 1830s with the independence of Texas from Mexico.
Texas, from 1820, began to be populated by Anglo-American colonists, with Stephen Austin at the helm. In 1836 and after a series of political conflicts and a war of independence, Texas finally freed itself from Mexico until it joined the United States in 1845, initiating the Mexican American War.
In this regard, there was a great divergence in American politics on the subject. Thus, the Whigs, of liberal thought and located in the north of the country, believed that this conflict with Mexico was not necessary, and that its occurrence would only serve to annex territories to the nation, which could enter the union as slave states. Instead, the Democrats supported this expansion, in order to expand their controlled territories in the south of the country, with the consequent over-representation in Congress and the expansion of slavery.
