what are laws the LGBTQ are losing?
Answer:
The struggle of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) people for equal rights has moved to center stage. LGBT people are battling for their civil rights in Congress, in courtrooms and in the streets. Well-known figures are discussing their sexual orientation in public. Gay and lesbian people are featured in movies and on television - not as novelty characters, but as full participants in society.Despite these advances into the American mainstream, however, LGBT people continue to face real discrimination in all areas of life. No federal law prevents a person from being fired or refused a job on the basis of sexual orientation. The nation's largest employer - the U.S. military - openly discriminates against gays and lesbians. Mothers and fathers lose child custody simply because they are gay or lesbian, and gay people are denied the right to marry. One state even tried to fence lesbians and gay men out of the process used to pass laws. In 1992 Colorado enacted Amendment 2, which repealed existing state laws and barred future laws protecting lesbians, gay men and bisexuals from discrimination. The U. S. Supreme Court struck it down in the landmark 1996 Romer v. Evans decision.We must conclude that Amendment 2 classifies homosexuals not to further a proper legislative end but to make them unequal to everyone else. This Colorado cannot do. A State cannot so deem a class of persons a stranger to its laws.-- Justice Anthony KennedyMajority Opinion in Romer v. Evans I The modern gay rights movement began dramatically in June 1969 in New York City's Greenwich Village. During a typical "raid," police tried to arrest people for their mere presence at a gay bar, but the patrons of the Stonewall Inn fought back - and the gay rights movement was launched. Using many of the grass-roots and litigation strategies employed by other 20th century activists, gay rights advocates have achieved significant progress:Ten states, the District of Columbia, many municipalities and hundreds of businesses and universities now ban employment discrimination."Domestic Partnership" programs exist in dozens of municipalities and hundreds of private institutions, including many of the country's largest corporations and universities.
Sodomy laws, typically used to justify discrimination against gay people, once existed nationwide; they are now on the books in only 18 states and Puerto Rico.
But the increased empowerment of LGBT people has brought about even more open and virulent anti-gay hostility:Although unrelated to an individual's ability, sexual orientation can still be the basis for employment decisions in both the public and private sectors in most states and municipalities.
Violent hate crimes, such as the 1998 murder of Wyoming student Matthew Shepherd, depict a grisly backlash against LGBTs or people perceived to be gay.
LGBT students and teachers face daily harassment and discrimination in the schools, and LGBT student groups in high schools and colleges still face roadblocks.

Which point of view does the narrator use in the passage? He laid down his fork. ... There was silence save for the tinkling of his brother's fork against a plate. He kept staring at his sister till her eyes fell. "I wish you'd let me eat," he said again. As he ate, he felt that they were thinking of the job he was to get that evening, and it made him angry; he felt that they had tricked him into a cheap surrender. From Richard Wright, Native Son. Copyright 1940 by Richard Wright first person second person third person limited third person omniscient
Answer:
Third person limited.
Explanation:
The narrative voice is the manner or source of narration that the speaker uses in a text. And through this voice, we can know what or how involved is the speaker/ narrator in the story.
In the novel "Native Son" by Richard Wright, the narrator is speaking in the third person limited point of view. This means that the narrator knows only the thoughts and feelings of one character and not of the others. This is evident in the given passage from the text when the narrator used the pronoun "he" for Bigger Thomas. Moreover, the statement "he felt that they were thinking of the job he was to get that evening, and it made him angry; he felt that they had tricked him into a cheap surrender" shows the narrator can only infer from the character of Bigger and not know the thoughts of the other characters in the scene.
Thus, the correct answer is third-person limited.
Answer: third person

Reply to this with commentary that connects the evidence to the claim:
Claim: Another function of education is to promote the welfare of all children in the US.
Evidence: For example, public schools are provided with federal money to give impoverished children free meals.
Commentary: (complete this sentence) By ensuring students are fed...
Answer:
Fill it out and turn it in: that’s the message thousands of school districts send parents each year when they offer applications for the federal government’s National School Lunch Program (NSLP). And each year, millions of parents comply. But new data suggest that the process for verifying eligibility for the program is fundamentally broken and that taxpayers may be picking up the tab for participation by ineligible families. The NSLP, which is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) at an annual cost of $8 billion, serves 31 million American children each day. The program’s goal is to help low-income students succeed in public and private school classrooms by ensuring they have adequate nutrition, a mission that is compromised if substantial funds are being spent on ineligible families or the program fails to reach the neediest students.

Answer:
I am also working on that but I hope this helps:
I ate part of my little store of food and lay down to sleep, but all through the night the serpents crawled to and fro, hissing horribly, so that I could scarcely close my eyes for terror. I was thankful when the morning light appeared, and when I judged by the silence that the serpents had retreated to their dens I came tremblingly out of my cave and wandered up and down the valley once more, kicking the diamonds contemptuously out of my path, for I felt that they were indeed vain things to a man in my situation. At last, overcome with weariness, I sat down upon a rock, but I had hardly closed my eyes when I was startled by something which fell to the ground with a thud close beside me.

Explanation:
Jack waited patiently for his turn at bat. What verb does the adverb modify?
Answer:
The verb waited is being modified by patiently.
Explanation:
Hi!
Alright so how I identify adverbs and verbs is by removing them to see if the sentence makes sense.
If you remove an adverb the sentence will still make sense.
If you remove just a verb then it will make no sense.
For example :
"I will eat later."
The adverb here is later.
And the verb is eat.
If you remove the adverb you get :
"I will eat" which is less descriptive but still makes sense.
If you remove the verb you get :
"I will later" which doesn't really mean anything. You don't know what is going on later and the statement on its own makes no sense.
Lets use this for your given sentence and remove some things to identify the adverb and verb.
Jack waited patiently for his turn at bat.
Removing waited :
Jack patiently for his turn at bat.
This makes no sense which means it is a verb.
Lets try removing bat :
Jack patiently waited for his turn at.
This makes no sense which means it is a verb.
If you're wondering about patiently lets try removing that.
Removing patiently :
Jack waited for his turn at bat.
This is the adverb cause this sentence still makes sense.
So pretty much here patiently is the adverb and this modifies the verb waited.
Since patiently is describing the verb waiting.
Waiting patiently.
The verb waited is being modified by patiently.
I hope this helps!
