A “whistleblower” is someone who exposes ________ in his or her workplace. The term comes from English police officers who would blow their whistles when they saw a crime being committed. Whistleblowers today do not literally blow whistles, but they expose illegal activities in their workplace. Sometimes these illegal activities are committed by powerful executives. For this reason, it can be quite dangerous to be a whistleblower. One famous whistleblower, Karen Silkwood, died in a car accident shortly after she went public with problems at the nuclear power plant where she worked. Her relatives say she had documents in her car that proved that executives at the power plant were acting illegally. After the accident, the documents mysteriously disappeared. The police determined the accident to be a random tragedy, but some people think the power plant was responsible.

“No roads marked the way to the traveler in California then: but, guided by the sun and well-known mountain peaks, we proceeded on our journey. . . . Some forty or fifty men were at work with the cradle machines, and were averaging about eight ounces [of gold] per day to the man. But a few moments passed before I was knee deep in water, with my wash-basin full of dirt, plunging it about endeavoring to separate the dirt from the gold. After washing some fifty pans of dirt, I found I had realized about four bits’ worth of gold. Reader, do you know how [one] feels when the gold fever heat has suddenly fallen to about zero? I do. . . . The Indians who were working for Capts. Sutter and Weber gave them leading information so that they were enabled to know the direction in which discoveries were to be made. . . .

“The morals of the miners of ’48 should here be noticed. No person worked on Sunday at digging for gold. . . . We had ministers of the gospel amongst us, but they never preached. Religion had been forgotten, even by its ministers, and instead of their pointing out the narrow way which leads to eternal happiness . . . they might have been seen, with pick-axe and pan, traveling untrodden [untraveled] ways in search of . . . treasure . . . or drinking good health and prosperity with friends.”

James H. Carson, describing life in the early California gold fields, 1848

Answer:

B. The acquisition of significant territory following the Mexican-American War

Explanation:

Following the Mexican-American war, which lasted between 1846 to 1848, United America eventually got a sizeable Mexican territory covering present-day New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, California, Texas, and western Colorado. It was made under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.

Hence, what led to the activities described in the excerpt was during the early stage of exploration of new places in the west or the acquired territory in the west, after the Mexican-American war

Historians debating the causes of the American Civil War focus on why seven Southern states declared secession from the Combined States and united to establish the Confederate states.

Correct option is B.

The acquisition of significant territory following the Mexican-American War is most directly led to the activities described in the excerpt.

Mexican-American War, which lasted from 1846 to 1848, the U.S. gained a lager portion of Mexican territory, which included what is now New Mexico, Utah and western Colorado. The activities occurred during the early stages of exploring new regions in the west following the Mexican-American conflict.

The growth of overseas trade and new wealth from the colonies had a major economic
impact on Europe. These factors led to the introduction of new business and trade practices.
Identify and explain the different types of economic systems.

Answers

Answer:

At the time Europe was in the midst of three main economic systems:

Feudalism: this had been the main economic system in Europe for centuries. It is based on agricultural production, in which the land is owned by a few noble individuals, and is worked by peasants known as serfs who have to give part of the production to the feudal lord in exchange for being allowed to live there, and for security.

Mercantilism: this system is based around the nation-state. In it, the state tries to obtain colonies from which to extract resources in exchange for gold and silver. The main idea is to have a trade surplus represented by a relative abundance of these precious minerals that are then used to finance the government and the military.

Capitalism: this economic system was developing at the time (it began to develop in Italy in the late Middle Ages). It is based around private ownership of the means of production (businesses, machinery, and so on), and the reinvestment of profits and savings in order to accumulate more capital (hence the name). It would go on to become the dominant economic system in Europe in the nineteenth century.

In one paragraph, describe what your think is the single largest accomplishment of the Civil Rights Movement and one area in which the United States struggled with race issues during and beyond the 1960s.

Answers

What I believe is the largest accomplishment of the civil rights movement is the March on Washington. This was the largest protest in history to implement Voting Rights act of 1965 and the Civil rights act of 1964. The Voting rights act made racial, religious, gender and discrimination illegal in a workplace. This also follows behind the Civil Rights for African American to desegregate public transportation and schools. One area United States struggled with race issues was segregation of schools, in 1960 Ruby Bridges desegregated an all white elementary school in the South. She had a national guard walking with her because of the angry mob that was right outside of the school threatening her family , saying they wanted her dead all because the color of her skin. Which is why I think the Brown vs The Board of Education is a close second to be the biggest accomplishments in the United States because it allowed all races to attend to the same high school. I hope this helps :)

Do you agree that the Court made the right decision in the Gideon case, or would you have upheld the earlier Betts decision ? Explain .

Answers

Answer:

I agree.

Explanation:

Gideon was accused of stealing a pool room. He had no money to pay for a lawyer and asked the court to provide a lawyer for him. This was denied.

Gideon had to do his defense alone, but he had no legal knowledge, which prevented him from being able to defend himself, in addition to preventing him from having a fair trial. In that case, he filed a lawsuit to determine whether he could get a lawyer, so that he could be tried fairly as an American citizen.

The Court ruled that it was right for people accused of committing a crime, who did not have the financial resources to pay a lawyer, to receive a lawyer, paid by the state, so that they could receive a fair and correct trial.

This is a very important part of the American political structure because it ensures that, where the United States Constitution grants power to the national government, laws enacted by that national government outrank – or take precedence – over laws enacted by state governments.

The supremacy clause makes the Constitution and all laws on treaties approved by Congress in exercising its enumerated powers the supreme law of the land. It is important because it says that judges in state court must follow the Constitution or federal laws and treaties, if there is a conflict with state laws.
