Question: History exam yesterday, are these right!? (topics are before WW2, suffrage and civil rights in America)!?
i had an 8 mark essay question which was:
Explain why Britain allowed Germany to ignore the Treaty of Versailles during the 1930's!. My answer was
- "Versailles Guilt"
- World War One Memories
- Public opinion was against acting on Germany
- Lack of money
- Lack of support- British empire wouldnt help, France was unstable, the USA was neutral
- They followed the policy of appeasement

And a 5 mark for the methods used by women to campaign for the vote 1900-1914:
petitions, setting fire to postboxes and buildings, heckling politicians, hunger strikes in prison, breaking windows and not paying taxes

The effects of Jim Crow laws on Black Americans-
poor housing, worst jobs, couldn't vote or had barriers to voting eg the literacy tests, segregation at lunch counters/restaurants, segregation on transport, seperate education for black and white children, all this was made legal by Supreme Court "seperate but equal" ruling

Are these right!? Would i get the full marks for them!?
Thanks xxxWww@QuestionHome@Com
