How can the war on drugs directly impact someone’s ability to go to college?
Answer:
Imagine for a second that you're a Freshman in highschool. You decide to smoke weed to help with anxiety and general unhappiness. You forget you have some on you when an SRO searches you. Maybe you're white and are more likely to get off with a warning. Maybe you're black and end up facing criminal charges. Students who face criminal charges have an increase in their likelihood of dropping out. Of all of the men in federal and state prisons, 80% do not have a high school diploma. There is a direct correlation and causation with a lack of high school education and incarceration. According to The Hamilton Project, there is roughly a 70% chance that an African-American man without his high school diploma will be imprisoned by his mid-thirties. You cannot attend college if you're in prison. But maybe you don't face criminal charges. That time. You can still have a record, and that will directly impact how SROs treat you and whether or not a college admissions officer thinks you have "good character".

Answer:
Belgium AND United States of America
Explanation:
Belgium controlled two colonies during its history, the Belgian Congo (modern DRC) from 1908 to 1960, and Ruanda-Urundi (Rwanda and Burundi) from 1922 to 1962. It also had a small concession in China, and was a co-administrator of the Tangier International Zone in Morocco.
Roughly 98% of Belgium's overseas territory was just one colony (about 76 times larger than Belgium itself) — known as the Belgian Congo. This had originated as the personal property of the country's king, Leopold II, rather than being gained through the political or military action of the Belgian state. Sovereignty was transferred to Belgium in 1908.
The USA
"The main period of decolonisation in Africa began after World War II. Growing independence movements, indigenous political parties and trade unions coupled with pressure from within the imperialist powers and from the United States and the Soviet Union ensured the decolonisation of the majority of the continent by 1980. While some areas, in particular, South Africa, & Namibia retain a large population of European descent, only the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla and the islands of Réunion and Mayotte, the Canary Islands, and Madeira remain under European control, the latter two of which were never part of any African polity and have an overwhelmingly European population."
Only mentioned once on the Wikipedia page for African colonization, therefore, we can deduce that they also did not colonize African.

WE CAN DEVELOP A MARKET ECONOMY UNDER
SOCIALISM
Modernization does represent a great new revolution.
The aim of our revolution is to liberate and expand the
productive forces. Without expanding the productive
forces, making our country prosperous and powerful, and
improving the living standards of the people, our
revolution is just empty talk. We oppose the old society
and the old system because they oppressed the people
and fettered the productive forces. We are clear about
this problem now. The Gang of Four [leaders of the
Cultural Revolution) said it was better to be poor under
socialism than to be rich under capitalism. This is absurd.

Why was Anne Hutchinson and antinomianism important?
Answer:
In 1638 Anne Hutchinson was kicked out of Boston for “antinomianism.”
So Anne Hutchinson’s view says good character is not necessary for salvation. This is to be “anti-nonmain” — “against law.” The opposite is to make law central — “legalism.” Legalism goes the opposite way and says good character is what is necessary for salvation. But then how good do you have to be? Is anyone really good enough? Can anyone conform to law enough? Perhaps not. No one is perfect. People have weaknesses, secret needs and habits. So we may need some “antinomianism.” If you aren’t good enough but get the benefit anyway, that’s called forgiveness. It seems like forgiveness must be required to go to heaven. Forgiveness negates the necessity of the law. It says you didn’t follow the law properly but it’s okay. If in reality we’re all a bunch of greedy , then we might need a bit of antinomianism to go to heaven. This fundamental problem of Christian religion goes all the way back to the founding and continues today. It’s an inherent logical problem of Christian faith.

The lesson states that it is often said that the Emancipation Proclamation freed no slaves. Despite this the Emancipation
Proclamation is one of the seminal documents in United States history. Do you think that the Emancipation Proclamation
accomplished Lincoln's goals? Why or why not?
Answer:
No
Explanation:
The Emancipation Proclamation was supported by President Lincoln as a revolutionary measure meant to cripple Confederacy. While cautious to uphold the boundaries of his power, Lincoln extended the Proclamation of Emancipation only to the defiant Southern states. As in the summer of 1862 President Lincoln first presented the Proclamation of Emancipation to his cabinet, several of the cabinet members were apathetic, or worse, concerned that the Proclamation was too extreme. It was only Lincoln 's strong devotion to the Proclamation's need and right, together with the win at Antietam, that eventually convinced his cabinet members to join him.
