The correct answer to this open question is the following.
What is the purpose of government according to US president Thomas Jefferson, is "to protect the natural rights of the American people and secure life, property, and the pursuit of happiness."
I completely agree with the concept of government stated by Antifederalist US President Thomas Jefferson.
Indeed, when he drafted the Declaration of Independence with the help of other four prominent Americans(Roger Sherman, Benjamin Franklin, Robert Livingston, and John Adams), Jefferson clearly established the foundation of the ideals that would appear in the Preamble of the United States Constitution.
After so much debate and discussion on the part of the delegates who participated in the Constitutional Convention of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, they agreed on including a Bill of Rights that is the first ten amendments to the US Constitution. Drafted by James Madison, these amendments include the ideas expressed by Thomas Jefferson of liberty and natural rights.
My own views on the purpose of government based on the statement of Thomas Jefferson is that those rights are the reason for our existence as a nation. The federal government and the other forms of government (state and local) have the responsibility -granted by the American citizens- of protecting those rights and liberties, creating peace and economic conditions for every American to thrive.

Explanation:
While population pyramids display the current population makeup, the same data can be used to predict population trends of the future. Using the population pyramids for Japan and Kenya, describe what trends in population are occurring. If these trends continue, what will the population pyramid for each country look like in 2050?
Answer:
The population pyramid in Japan shows that there are more elderly than young people and that this difference will tend to be even greater in 2050. Kenya's population pyramid, on the other hand, shows that the number of young people is much greater than that of the elderly and that this difference will also be bigger in 2050.
Explanation:
The population pyramid is a type of diagram used to show the classification of cities and countries in relation to the age of their residents.
If we look at this type of diagram related to Japan, we will have an inverted pyramid, with the base being the smallest part and the top being much larger. This means that the number of young people is less than the number of elderly people in the country. This can indicate social and economic problems, which tend to increase as the young population is scarce.
Kenya, however, shows a pyramid with a base larger than the top, which indicates that the number of young people is greater than that of the elderly. This can be explained by the low life expectancy in Kenya and the problems with condom distribution. This can also create problems for Kenya.

Why did the stempact congress meet in 1765 to form a newgovernment for the colonies to approve the taxes imposed by parliamen to dictuss how respnd to the new taxes the agree not to import british goods
Answer:
Discuss how respnd to the new taxes
Explanation:
The colonial representatives met shortly after the British Crown had imposed many new taxes on the American Colonies, including the stamp tax. The Crown had also limited the degree of autonomy that the Colonies enjoyed, something that enraged the colonists, because they were used to a form of government that was almost fully independent of the government of Britain.
These meetings (called continental congress) would finally result in the Declaration of Independence and the start of the American Revolutionary War.

W.E.B Du Bois and Booker T. Washington similarities and differences
Two great leaders of the black community in the late 19th and 20th century were W.E.B. Du Bois and Booker T. Washington. However, they sharply disagreed on strategies for black social and economic progress. Their opposing philosophies can be found in much of today’s discussions over how to end class and racial injustice, what is the role of black leadership, and what do the ‘haves’ owe the ‘have-nots’ in the black community.
Booker T. Washington, educator, reformer and the most influentional black leader of his time (1856-1915) preached a philosophy of self-help, racial solidarity and accomodation. He urged blacks to accept discrimination for the time being and concentrate on elevating themselves through hard work and material prosperity. He believed in education in the crafts, industrial and farming skills and the cultivation of the virtues of patience, enterprise and thrift. This, he said, would win the respect of whites and lead to African Americans being fully accepted as citizens and integrated into all strata of society.
W.E.B. Du Bois, a towering black intellectual, scholar and political thinker (1868-1963) said no–Washington’s strategy would serve only to perpetuate white oppression. Du Bois advocated political action and a civil rights agenda (he helped found the NAACP). In addition, he argued that social change could be accomplished by developing the small group of college-educated blacks he called “the Talented Tenth:”
“The Negro Race, like all races, is going to be saved by its exceptional men. The problem of education then, among Negroes, must first of all deal with the “Talented Tenth.” It is the problem of developing the best of this race that they may guide the Mass away from the contamination and death of the worst.”
At the time, the Washington/Du Bois dispute polarized African American leaders into two wings–the ‘conservative’ supporters of Washington and his ‘radical’ critics. The Du Bois philosophy of agitation and protest for civil rights flowed directly into the Civil Rights movement which began to develop in the 1950’s and exploded in the 1960’s. Booker T. today is associated, perhaps unfairly, with the self-help/colorblind/Republican/Clarence Thomas/Thomas Sowell wing of the black community and its leaders. The Nation of Islam and Maulana Karenga’s Afrocentrism derive too from this strand out of Booker T.’s philosophy. However, the latter advocated withdrawal from the mainstream in the name of economic advancement.

The Souls of Black Folk by W.E. B. Du Bois
Here is the full text of this classic in the literature of civil rights. It is a prophetic work anticipating and inspiring much of the black consciousness and activism of the 1960s. In it Du Bois describes the magnitude of American racism and demands that it end. He draws on his own life for illustration- from his early experrience teaching in the hills of Tennessee to the death of his infant son and his historic break with the ‘accomodationist’ position of Booker T. Washington..

Explanation:
Was it hypocritical that the 1955 Montgomery city code allowed “Negro nurses” to sit in the “white section” of the bus if they were attending white people who needed their care?
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
It is hypocritical because racism and segregation did not apply if a white person was being tended to by the nurses. This means that while they are not equal or important when it comes to the law they are equal and important if they happen to have a white patient who needs them. And they can't be both at the same time.

Which piece of evidence supports that British merchants lost money because the Sons and Daughters of Liberty boycotted British goods? ("Sons and Daughters of Liberty") Group of answer choices "In 1765, citizens from nine colonies met at the Stamp Act Congress." "They formed a group called the Sons of Liberty." "The colonists were making their own goods instead of buying from the British." "Other colonists were not satisfied with writing documents."
Answer:
"The colonists were making their own goods instead of buying from the British."
Explanation:
The piece of evidence that supports that British merchants lost money because the Sons and Daughters of Liberty boycotted British goods is that "The colonists were making their goods instead of buying from the British."
This was evident in the fact that the Daughters of the Liberty went against the Stamp Act by refusing to take British goods such as British Tea and clothing materials.
Instead, they made their teas through local herbs and berries, while they also made homespun cloth instead of buying from British merchants.
Choose two landmark Supreme Court decisions and write a paragraph about each.

Answer:
Birth control and abortion Roe v. Wade it does reflect the spirit of the constitution. It reflects because it protects a pregnant woman's liberty to choose to have an abortion without excessive government restriction. And this shows how individual rights come into play when talking about landmark decisions. The second is discrimination against race. Race is one of the biggest things in today's society and when talking about this topic its a hard decision. First it goes together with the constitution for many reasons individual rights. And during this meeting of Dred Scott v. Sanford they discussed Black African Americans rights to become a citizen which means the rights of the Constitution were not even considered.
