Answer 2

Answer:

The person above me is correct...

Explanation:

.. but this is the sample response, again the other person's response will get counted as correct

Czech immigrants arrived in Texas as early as 1823. Rev. Josef Arnošt Bergmann is considered the father of Czech immigration to Texas. He began writing friends in Europe about the opportunities awaiting them in Texas. They mostly settled in central Texas. By 1910, more than 15,000 Texas residents had been born in Czechoslovakia. Inexpensive and fertile farmland was the biggest attraction for migration. Some were fleeing political and religious oppression and military conscription in the Austrian Empire. They established close-knit communities, embraced American democratic ideals, organized Czech language schools, established Czech language newspapers, and built Catholic churches. Today, Czech ethnic festivals and celebrations are extremely popular.The Texas Czech Heritage and Cultural Center opened in 2004 in La Grange. Kolaches are fruit-, cheese-, or meat-filled pastries commonly found in Texas bakeries.

What jobs did women perform in the steel industry?
READ THE PASSAGE TO ANSWER:



Women of Steel (Excerpt from a propaganda video)

Steel has been rightly called the sinews of peace and the backbone of war. Behind the guns, and tanks, and ships, and planes, are the blast furnaces and open hearths, the electric furnaces and blooming mills. Tending these giant furnaces have always stood a breed of men apart, giants in the land, those men of steel. But with our country in peril, the women of America rallied to the support of their men, and here in this, almost the last great industry we thought could be handled only by men, these mothers, wives, and sweethearts came to stand shoulder to shoulder with them in almost every capacity. These marvelous women of America. These women of steel. Of course, we had long since accepted their aptitude in fabrication, the swift, sure dexterity of their fingers, as in this stainless steel rib assembly. Their adaptability to small tools. Even the hand welding electrodes. But as the need grew for more and more production of the basic metal itself, more loyal women with a dash a true American pluck and venturesomeness, edged further and further into the real work of steel making. Some with a scientific bent, went into metallurgical control and research labs-- girls fresh from chemical engineering school, older women who had been technical librarians. Yes, women make good inspectors. Here's one applying the magnaflux test to steel for airplane motors. They make good drivers too.American girls raised to drive the family car find it no trick at all to handle trucks and tractors. Mrs. Warner at these crane controls must lift this huge bloom into the furnace to be heated red hot, then carried across the shop to the forging press. It takes good judgment and a steady hand to manipulate it under the drop hammer-- just the right amount and position each time. And Ms. Evans here is very adept at this. Here is the office of the supervisor of women employees. She can tell us more about it. If you will, Ms. Campbell. MS.


CAMPBELL: Women in steel are simply the result of realistic thinking.In time of war, you have to have steel. You also have to have people to make it. With the Army taking men by the thousands-- more than 16,000 from our plant so far-- we had to find people to replace them. A great untapped reserve was women.


NARRATOR: How many do you have?


MS. CAMPBELL: About half of the replacements are women, more than 8,000 of them. The rest are older men and young boys.


NARRATOR: And the women, are they doing all right?


MS. CAMPBELL: Beyond anything anyone ever dreamed of. They're doing something in almost every department in the plant. And I don't mean just clerks and checkers. We have women engineers and oilers in the boiler room. Women repair experts. Women work at the oil mines above ground. Along the unloading docks. And our private railroad tracks. Women carpenters. And women shipbuilders. And women load and unload our freight cars. We have girls in charge of our tool cribs, and that takes the knowing of a lot of tools to do that. These women are working around the clock around the calendar. They do a man's job, and they can draw a man's pay. And they're doing it safely. They're safer here than in their own homes.

i don't know what poem you're talking about but here's my interpretation of america (also in poem form)-

'hatred!' i said, 'thing of malice.'

i awoke and flung their bias and stereotypes.

'hatred!' i said, 'for my people no different from you and yours.'

as for we have brothers and sisters same as you.

and when i think of the hatred they have for my people; our people, my body aches with a pain i cannot shake.

for hatred is what our nation was built upon, hatred i tell you, hatred.

explanation:

america has "changed for the better" by becoming more "inclusive",  i say this with air quotes because yes, america is more "inclusive" so to speak but in the same breath it isn't because european-american (or whatever politically correct term you prefer to use) will forever be at the top of the 'food chain', which is in no way inclusive.
