What was the major effect as a result of the Kansas-Nebraska Act?
Answer:

Hope it helped you.
Answer:
The Kansas–Nebraska Act of 1854 was a territorial organic act that created the territories of Kansas and Nebraska. It was drafted by Democratic Senator Stephen A. Douglas, passed by the 33rd United States Congress, and signed into law by President Franklin Pierce. Douglas introduced the bill with the goal of opening up new lands to development and facilitating construction of a transcontinental railroad, but the Kansas–Nebraska Act is most notable for effectively repealing the Missouri Compromise, stoking national tensions over slavery, and contributing to a series of armed conflicts known as "Bleeding Kansas".
Explanation:
However, one of the most significant and lasting effects the Kansas-Nebraska Act had on the American political system was the formation of the Republican Party. The Kansas-Nebraska Act directly led to the creation of the Republican Party.

Why did the Framers agree to add a bill of rights to the Constitution after it was ratified?
A. Federalists would not support the U.S. Constitution without the guarantee of a list of rights.
B. Federalists convinced the Anti-Federalists that it would be easier to ratify with a bill of rights.
C. Anti-Federalists convinced the Federalists that it would be harder to ratify with a bill of rights.
D. Anti-Federalists would not support the U.S. Constitution without the guarantee of a list of rights.
The Framers agree to add a bill of rights to the Constitution after it was ratified because the Anti-Federalists would not support the U.S. Constitution without the guarantee of a list of rights. Thus, the correct answer is D.
Who were Anti-Federalist?
A political movement in the late 18th century known as anti-federalism opposed the establishment of a more powerful federal government in the United States and later opposed the ratification of the 1787 Constitution. The Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union, the previous constitution, gave state governments additional power.
The Anti-Federalists agreed to ratify the Constitution in exchange for the addition of a list of rights that would allow citizens to limit the power of the government because they were concerned that the Constitution would give the government too much power.
The rights of Americans in regard to their government are spelled out in the Bill of Rights. Individual liberties and civil rights are guaranteed, including freedom of speech, of the press, and of religion.
Therefore, option D is correct.

Answer:
"I Have a Dream" was a speech by Martin Luther King on August 28, 1963, in which he demanded equality and an end to all racist discrimination in the United States. The speech, delivered from the steps in front of the Lincoln Memorial during the march on Washington, was a turning point for the American civil rights movement in the 1960s. The place where the speech took place was a symbol in itself, while Abraham Lincoln was the president who 100 years ago had abolished slavery in the nation.
In the speech, King emphasized his desire for a future where African Americans and white Americans could live together in peaceful coexistence as equals in the United States. He spoke of the suffering of the black population throughout history and pointed out that one hundred years after the abolition of slavery, blacks lived in poverty and inequality compared to whites.
The thoughts in the speech reflected King's social experiences of African-American marginalization. The speech drew parallels, which appealed to America's myths about itself as a nation based on freedom and justice for all people.

The interview includes Marshall's own struggle to get into law school which fueled his sense of injustice.
The interview provides a more detailed account of the Supreme Court's opinion on Brown v. Board of Education.
The interview mentioned more about the opposition Marshall faced in the African American community.
The interview gives more specific examples of how segregation in education is inherently unequal and unfair.
Which excerpt from the passage “Equal Justice Under Law: Thurgood Marshall” most effectively illustrates Marshall’s view that segregation was unconstitutional?
“…while Marshall earned high grades in college, the all-white law school of the University of Maryland refused to admit him. (Maryland had no law school for African Americans.)”
Marshall repeated the argument he had made in South Carolina. Segregation hurt black children. There was no reason for it, other than to keep one race up and the other down."
“In 1896, in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson, the Court had ruled that segregation was allowed under the Constitution: the facilities for black Americans, the Court said, simply had to be as good as those for whites—'separate but equal.’”
"He wanted to persuade the court that segregation was itself wrong, that the whole idea of “separate but equal” was fundamentally unjust."

What does this excerpt reveal about Mandela’s commitment to the anti-apartheid struggle?
This then is what the ANC is fighting. Their struggle is a truly national one. It is a struggle of the African people, inspired by their own suffering and their own experience. It is a struggle for the right to live. During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.” - Nelson Mandela, statement from the dock at the opening of the defense case in the Rivonia trial (excerpt), 1964
Answer:
Mandela's commitment to Apartheid was a priority in his life and he was completely committed to this cause.
Answer:
Mandela says that he is committed to fighting inequality in South Africa. He is also committed to supporting democracy for South Africa. In the final sentence of his speech, he says he is willing to give his life to the fight for equality. Mandela did fulfill his commitment. He went to jail for 27 years, but he never gave up his fight against apartheid. Without Mandela, apartheid in South Africa might have lasted even longer than it did.

What do you think about the different treatment of females in so many of these ancient civilizations, particularly ancient Greece and Rome? Do you think that women and girls are discriminated against in modern society today? Give specific examples to back up your argument.
Answer:
Women in the ancient Greek world had few rights in comparison to male citizens. Unable to vote, own land, or inherit, a woman's place was in the home and her purpose in life was the rearing of children. This, though, is a general description, and when considering the role of women in ancient Greece one should remember that information regarding specific city-states is often lacking, is almost always from male authors, and only in Athens can their status and role be described in any great detail. Neither are we sure of the practical and everyday application of the rules and laws that have survived from antiquity. We do know that Spartan women were treated somewhat differently than in other states. For example, they had to do physical training like men, were permitted to own land, and could drink wine.
Answer:
Women in the ancient greek world had very little rights to males. Unable to vote, own soil, or inherit, a female's position was in the house. And her purpose in life was the rearing and bearing of children. We do know that Spartan females were treated somewhat differently than in other states. For example, they had to do physical training like men, were allowed to own soil, and could drink wine.
Spartan women were famous in ancient Greece for having more freedom than women elsewhere in the Greek world. Female spartans often received a formal education, although divide from boys and not at boarding school. And we do recognize that Spartan women were known for their natural beauty and that they were prohibited from wearing any kind of makeup or enhancements. All though these rules made it seem that Spartan women were freer than your average Greek female, they were actually put into effect to ensure that Spartan society advance as disciplined, powerful, and threatening as possible.
Women in Ancient Greece were considered second class citizens to men. Before getting wedded, girls were subject to their dad and had to follow his orders. After getting wedded, wives were subject to their husbands. Women were looked down upon by men and were considered no smarter than kids.
"Why are you Spartan women the only ones who can rule men?"
"Because we are also the only ones who give birth to men."
