Read the excerpt from "Raymond's Run."
“I always win cause I’m the best," I say straight at Gretchen who is, as far as I’m concerned, the only one talking in this ventriloquist-dummy routine. Gretchen smiles, but it’s not a smile, and I’m thinking that girls never really smile at each other because they don’t know how and don’t want to know how and there’s probably no one to teach us how, cause grown-up girls don’t know either.
How does the author develop Squeaky's viewpoint in this excerpt?
by showing that Squeaky thinks girls are raised to dislike each other
by illustrating that Squeaky dislikes people who brag about their accomplishments
by revealing that Squeaky thinks Gretchen is the least intelligent of the group of girls.
by explaining Squeaky's eagerness to befriend Gretchen
Answer:
by showing that Squeaky thinks girls are raised to dislike each other

The Civil War was a monumental event in American history. The legacy of the war is still present today. One of the most significant symbols of the war is the Confederate battle flag. Today, this flag can be seen on bumper stickers, on T-shirts, and outside individual houses, especially in some southern states.
Read the article below about the Civil War legacy. Focus on the legacy of the Confederate flag and the controversy that it raises.
Required Reading:
Understanding Civil War Legacy
The Civil War Legacy
After reading the article, you will participate in a group discussion on the following topic:
What does the Confederate flag symbolize today to different people, and how might Americans confront the controversy it raises in the future?
Summarize the main points in the article “Understanding Civil War Legacy.” Your response should include information about the political, economic and technological, and social and cultural changes that occurred after the war.
Answer:
The stories we tell about the past can have a profound effect on the present. Our choices about how to remember the past and how we use historical symbols can divide communities and also draw them together. In this way, our relationship to the past has the power to transform our present and our future.
In 2015, the decades-long debate over a symbol from the American past intensified. On June 17, 2015, a 21-year-old white man shot and killed nine African American worshippers in the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina. The gunman said that he hoped the shooting would ignite a race war in the United States. Investigators later found that the shooter had detailed his racist beliefs on the Internet and posted photos of himself with the Confederate flag.
These photos ignited debate across the United States about the meaning and power of historical symbols. In the United States, the Confederate battle flag from the Civil War has long been a divisive symbol of the country’s history. Most historians maintain that the central issue of the Civil War, which was fought in the 1860s, was slavery; the Confederate states separated from the rest of the country because their leaders believed that the federal government would soon abolish slavery throughout the nation. Yet many Americans today continue to feel an affinity for the battle flag of the Confederate army, the forces that fought to defend the practice of slavery.
Explanation:
Answer:
Americans have honored the contributions Black Americans in many ways. They would honor the Black Americans through, landmarks, art, national holidays, museums, money, etc.

1. How and why did Reconstruction end?
Answer:
With the compromise, the Republicans had quietly given up their fight for racial equality and blacks' rights in the south. In 1877, Hayes withdrew the last federal troops from the south, and the bayonet-backed Republican governments collapsed, thereby ending Reconstruction
Answer:
Compromise of 1877: The End of Reconstruction
The Compromise of 1876 effectively ended the Reconstruction era. Southern Democrats' promises to protect civil and political rights of blacks were not kept, and the end of federal interference in southern affairs led to widespread disenfranchisement of blacks voters.

What are your feelings on the issue of being black in America and the existence of white privilege?
(need ideas/topics for essay)
for starters this is coming from a white person’s pov :))
i feel that black lives are in danger and the way they are treated by law enforcement is disgusting. i also think that white privilege DOES exist and it shows. when the capitol was stormed, white people were LET IN by police and they even took selfies with police. but when blm protests took place, people were severely injured and killed by police. our country has literally been built on racism & slavery and it has gone on for too long. it's been about 150 years since slavery ended and we're STILL battling racism to this day. i can’t imagine what black people go through everyday and i sincerely hope once trump is out of office, we will all be able to fight against the existence of white supremacy and the oppression against black lives.

Read the following excerpt from Federalist #44 by James Madison.
Had every State a right to regulate the value of its coin, there might be as many different currencies as States, and thus the [trade] among them would be impeded; [unexpected changes] in its value might be made, and thus the citizens of other States be injured, and animosities be kindled among the States themselves. The subjects of foreign powers might suffer from the same cause, and hence the Union be discredited and embroiled by the indiscretion of a single member.
James Madison would most likely agree with the idea that
state governments should be stronger than a national government.
foreign governments should have influence on state economies.
each state should regulate its own trade with other countries.
a national government should be supreme over state governments.
Answer:
The fourth option: A national government should be supreme over state governments.
Explanation:
In this excerpt, James Madison is arguing against state-specific currencies and explains the problems that are included with it. It can therefore be inferred that Madison is pushing for the inverse of that: a Federal level of currency and the maintenance thereof be kept by the Federal government. This leads to the answer "A national government should be supreme over state governments." Hope this helps.
