In 1839, a group of Africans took control of a Spanish ship called La Amistad that was bound for a port in Cuba where the Africans were to be sold as slaves. After seizing the ship, the Africans demanded to be taken back to their homeland, but were tricked by the ship's navigator who set a course that took them along the coast of North America. La Amistad was eventually captured by the United States Navy, and the Africans were held as pirates. Though they were almost taken to be sold in a U.S. slave market, a court case arose regarding whether they could actually be considered slaves. Abolitionists came to the aid of the Africans, and the case eventually reached the Supreme Court in 1841.

Which of the following best explains the result of the case above?

A.The men were considered slaves because slavery was legal in the U.S. at that time.

B.The men were considered free since the Atlantic slave trade had been illegal since 1793.

C.The men were considered slaves since they were thought to be the property of Spain.

D.The men were considered free because U.S. did not have diplomatic relations with Cuba.

The Aztecs: Agriculture or Human Sacrifice
Historians should accentuate both agriculture and human sacrifice when offering explanation towards Aztec society. Both sacrifice and agriculture are distinct aspects that remain significant subject matters that need emphasis. The conceptual theories of these Aztec notions have created impacts on history and the success of Aztec civilization. There is dissension on whether historians should prioritize agriculture over human sacrifice when discussing Aztec society. However, I believe each element highly contributes to the innovative decision of the Aztecs, and both have great prominence in the development of their civilization.

Agricultural achievements have had a large influence on the prosperity of the Aztecs, and have greatly improved the lives of their people. During the pre-conquest, or the time period before the Spanish conquistadors arrived, the Aztecs created many advancements and found inventive ways to survive and build a successful empire. For example, in Document B, it explained, “…the Aztecs developed an ingenious system for irrigating agriculture called chinanpas (lofts used for farming). Another example is, “Approximately twenty thousand acres of chinanpas were constructed [around Tenochtitlan] and the yield was high: four corn crops per year were possible.” These excerpts from the document show the advancement and creativity the Aztecs used to develop farming techniques and structures with available materials. Food is a very vital and necessary resource in the expansion and improvement of a civilization, and the surplus they created was enough to support their large population effectively. Through these accurately engineered farming developments, the Aztecs have created a serious advancement that helped their empire’s prosperity and provided resources greatly needed by their society.

"We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented." - Elie Weisel

1. What does this quote means?
2. How can being silent hurt those facing oppressions?

Answers

Answer:

1. The quote emphasizes the importance of speaking out against unjust and cruel mistreatment.

2. Silence gives the oppressor little to no friction against their actions, encouraging them to continue. Fighting back and making the torment on innocent lives more difficult to achieve has a much higher chance of the attempt failing or eventually ending rather than simply allowing the oppression continue; where there is ease in the abuse of power, it's guaranteed to progress.

1. The quote means that when a country chooses neutrality they act as a bystander towards the matter. This weakens the victim and only encourages the oppressor to continue their injustices.
2. Being silent hurts those facing oppressions because it offers no help to them and no change towards their mistreatment. This kind of silence continues the oppression those face

Why do you think so many leaders opposed (were against) giving their people basic rights before the Enlightenment? 3-4 sentences

Answers

With people having no rights they had to do what he leaders asked. Due to this they had many people working for them with no pay. They gained money from the people working for them and didn’t have to pay them. If given rights they would have less control over them and most likely gaining less money.

they didn’t want to give people rights because then they would have some type of power and could over throw them

Explanation:

The U.S. government started the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in direct response to the Soviet Union's 1957 launch of Sputnik I. When Sputnik launched, it both embarrassed and instilled fear into the Americans that the Soviets had gotten to space first, and were *this* much closer to being able to launch nuclear missiles at the U.S.

They launched the first successful satellite into orbit on January 31st, 1958; Explorer I, and secured the support of Congress to officially establish NASA and beat the Soviet Union in the Space Race.

Eating junk food on a regular basis can lead to an increased risk of obesity and chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and some cancers.Fast food is addictive, and that's no accident. The trans fats in many fried foods can hinder your brain's ability to discern how much you've eaten and how hungry you are. So you buy—and eat—more. Fast food can even trigger the pleasure centers of the brain to release dopamine, the same chemical that fuels addictions. The answer to easing anxiety and depression could be as simple as changing your diet.
