This question is about Reparations for slavery in the United States
Answer:
B.Victims who received reparations in the past suffered the injustices firsthand; the descendants of enslaved people did not.
Explanation:
Slavery reparation is an established practice in the USA that sought to secure compensation for freed slaves and who are still seeking to extend this compensation to their descendants. Although the first indemnities were given in the form of a pension, nowadays this indemnity is proposed in different ways and may be a sum of money, scholarships, agreements, tax exemptions, among others.
This practice is very controversial today, because many claim that the victims of slavery deserved reparation because they suffered injustices directly, first hand; however, their descendants do not.
What is the theme?
I was climbing up a mountain-path
With many things to do,
Important business of my own,
And other people's too,
[5]
When I ran against a Prejudice
That quite cut off the view.
My work was such as could not wait,
My path quite clearly showed,
My strength and time were limited,
[10]
I carried quite a load;
And there that hulking Prejudice
Sat all across the road.
So I spoke to him politely,
For he was huge and high,
[15]
And begged that he would move a bit
And let me travel by.
He smiled, but as for moving! —
He didn't even try.
And then I reasoned quietly
[20]
With that colossal mule:
My time was short — no other path —
The mountain winds were cool.
I argued like a Solomon;
He sat there like a fool.
[25]
Then I flew into a passion,
and I danced and howled and swore.
I pelted and belabored him
Till I was stiff and sore;
He got as mad as I did —
[30]
But he sat there as before.
And then I begged him on my knees;
I might be kneeling still
If so I hoped to move that mass
Of obdurate ill-will —
[35]
As well invite the monument
To vacate Bunker Hill!
So I sat before him helpless,
In an ecstasy of woe —
The mountain mists were rising fast,
[40]
The sun was sinking slow —
When a sudden inspiration came,
As sudden winds do blow.
I took my hat, I took my stick,
My load I settled fair,
[45]
I approached that awful incubus
With an absent-minded air —
And I walked directly through him,
As if he wasn't there!

Why do you think Roald Dahl included the battle of Athens in his autobiography??
I will give brainleist and 15 points....
Answer with Explanation:
Roald Dahl included the Battle of Athens in his autobiography because he experienced the battle as a fighter pilot and autobiographies are suppose to include chronological events about a person's own account of his life. The "Battle of Athens" was a very long aerial fight within close range and surviving it was a miracle for him; thus, you can imagine how detailed he talked about it in his writings. That experience also played a huge role in his writing career.

What enrages Grendel when he first arrives at "the grounds of Hrothgar's dwelling" on the night of his battle with Beowulf?
Answer:
The happiness, the joyful atmosphere of which he was not a part of, enrages Grendel.
Explanation:
The epic poem "Beowulf" tells the heroic story of Beowulf and his fights against the monster Grendel, his mother, and later on a dragon. The bravery and courage that Beowulf exhibits in his fights show the greatness of the person.
Grendel had always tormented, ravished, and ate the men he managed to kill every time he went to the Geats' hall. He knows they will be assembled inside the hall, drinking and enjoying which presents a good chance for him to attack and torture them. On the night of his battle with Beowulf, Grendel was extra angry because he was "Spurned and joyless". He hates the men enjoying while he was left alone in the swamps.

Prepositional phrase in sentence " I am happy to see you"
Answer:
to
Explanation:
Answer:
none in the sentence
I
happy
to
see
you
Explanation:
Although the word 'to' is a preposition, there is no prepositional phrase in the sentence, as it is not acting as such. Prepositional phrases do not have verbs, so in this case the phrase 'to see you' cannot be considered a prepositional phrase, as it is an infinitive clause of reason.

Explanation:

Answer:
I believe that the quote means that once a person steals something they have fun with it and try to challenge themselves by stealing bigger, more expensive things. I personally agree with this philosophy. People who steal things and are successful are generally not going to stop what they're doing because they rather not pay for merchandise. This quote reminded me of the Hunger Games in which a girl named Foxface stole small amounts of food from the other players. She got so confident in herself that she eventually started to steal huge amounts of food. However, she wasn't as cautious when she stole some berries and other food from Katniss and Peeta. The berries ended up being poisonous and she died. Stealing is wrong because it is dishonest and hurts the store and its employees.

Cosmetics Cosmetics have been used for thousands of years to improve the appearances of people and also to help them keep clean and healthy. We know that cosmetics were often used in ancient Egypt.
