Explanation:

VOTING, SLAVERY,NON-RIGHTS AS IF BEING COLORED

Answer 2

Neither “women” nor “sex” are words that appear in the Constitution, revealing the limits of the Founding Fathers’ narrow understanding of women as equal citizens. The Constitution was written by and for white men with means, which reserved its principle of equal justice under law for the sole benefit of the authors and their privileged peers. This meant that women and people of color, among others, were openly regarded as less than full citizens and thus excluded from many legal protections because of their sex, race, and/or ethnicity.

Even without an explicit mention of sex in the Constitution, many of the legal protections that seek to promote women’s equality—and equality across the gender spectrum—are rooted in the Constitution’s equality principles and a modern understanding of equality that has surpassed outdated prejudices and stereotypes. Strong majorities of the U.S. Supreme Court over more than four decades have made clear that the 14th Amendment, which guarantees “equal protection of the laws,” encompasses protections against sex discrimination; this is evident first in the 1971 landmark ruling, Reed v. Reed, followed by other cases such as Frontiero v. Richardson, which was argued by now-Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.5 Despite this broad consensus, some conservative thinkers and theorists—such as Justice Antonin Scalia6—have rejected a reading of the 14th Amendment to include sex, arguing that such arguments are specious because they do not reflect the original intent of the nation’s founders. In the face of an increasingly conservative federal judiciary, arguments against sex discrimination rooted in the 14th Amendment are under threat, and existing protections are vulnerable to being rolled back.7

Which parts of these excepts show that slaves had no legal rights and were often betrayed by their masters? Select one in the first except and two in the second excerpt.

Answers

Answer:

The parts of the above excerpts which show that slaves had no legal rights and were often betrayed by their masters are:

The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave by Frederick Douglass (excerpt)  

"She had served my old master faithfully from youth to old age. She was nevertheless a slave—a slave for life—a slave in the hands of strangers; and in their hands, she saw her children, her grandchildren, and her great-grandchildren, divided like so many sheep, without being gratified with the small privilege of a single word as to their or her own destiny."

Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl by Harriet Ann Jacobs (excerpt)

"no promise or writing given to a slave is legally binding; for, according to Southern laws, a slave, being property, can hold no property."

"While my grandmother was thus helping to support me from her hard earnings, the three hundred dollars she had lent her mistress were never repaid."

Fredrick Douglass wrote his own account of life in which he mentioned about the ills of slavery and about the hardships which the slaves had to undergo. He had tried to expose the cruelty of slavery which doesn't spare anyone born in a black family. He points out the idea that a slave is a form of property owned by the master and he possesses full control over him.

Harriet Jacobs wrote in her book the struggles which a slave women undergo to attain freedom. She talks about the sexual harassment and abuse they endured during their lifetime.Explanation:

Answer:

1) She was nevertheless a slave—a slave for life—a slave in the hands of strangers; and in their hands she saw her children, her grandchildren, and her great-grandchildren, divided like so many sheep, without being gratified with the small privilege of a single word as to their or her own destiny.

Why is a different amount of energy required to melt different substances?

Answers

Answer:

Hello~

Llamalover here!

Foreign substances in a crystalline solid disrupt the repeating pattern of forces that hold the solid together. So a smaller amount of energy is required to melt the part of the solid surrounding the impurity. If less energy is required, then this explains the melting point depression (lowering) observed from impure solids.

In the sentence "The old man was awfully good at chess." Oxymoron  technique is used.

What do you mean by Technique?

A technique is a way of carrying out a task or carrying out an action. You might use your teeth to twist the top off of drinks to open them.

An oxymoron is a figure of speech that juxtaposes concepts having opposing meanings within a word or phrase to produce an apparent self-contradiction (usually plural; less frequently oxymora). An oxymoron can be employed as a rhetorical tool to highlight a point or highlight a paradox. The OED lists "contradiction in terminology" in 1902 with a more broad definition (not necessarily for rhetorical effect).

Therefore, Oxymoron technique is used in this sentence.
