On the topic of race, why doesn’t the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States uphold justice and equity for all groups of people?
Answer:
"Throughout history, most people have been treated unequally by their rulers. Unless one were born into a privileged family or tribe, there was little access to the precious resources that are taken for granted in a prosperous society—things like meat, well-defended shelter, and education. In many cases people might be enslaved, or something close to it. People were treated unequally, both so that the powerful could have more comfort, and because rulers believed most people couldn’t be trusted to make decisions about how society should operate. As we have seen, the Founders declared that no one has a right to rule others simply because of the family into which he’s born. Instead, they believed that everyone is born with certain rights and that the law should equally protect people’s freedoms and property."

Think about the relationship between the United States and China today. Do you think it is a positive or negative relationship? Can you think of something that would improve the relationship?
Answer:
It can depend on a multitude of factors such as if we refer to economic ties, then yes I think it is positive, as China provides the US with the labor for US companies to utilize to mass produce their products. By contrast, our geopolitical ties are negative as suggested by conflicting interests and human rights issues that the US calls China out on (such as in Xinjiang where the Chinese had shown to strip the Uyghurs of their freedoms and putting them into re-education camps). A way that we can improve this is by holding more bilateral talks and to discuss about the certain issues that both countries have and working together to foster better relations and build mutual understanding.

Using the map below, explain why the journey from Louisiana to Canada through Wisconsin would be especially difficult.
Write your response in two to three complete sentences.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The journey from Louisiana to Canada through Wisconsin would be especially difficult because it had to pass through many states that were "slavery states," and this maximized the risk to be caught.
And even more, reaching Wisconsin, slaves had to cross the Great Lakes, which represented a major risk. And during the winter, this was almost impossible.
We can say this was a dangerous route to get to Canada.
We have the case of Shadrach Minkins. He was sent to Canada on the Underground Railroad.
Shadrach Minkins lived as a slave in Virginia but one day he decided that he should be free and in 1850 escaped to Boston with the help of abolitionists of the North. These northerners that helped him, were part of the network called the Underground Railroad, which helped slaves to escape and introduced them into the northern territory.
