Why was the early west considered a "crossroads of culture"? -

a mexico originally owned the land, so the cultures of americans, mexicans, and native americans were all present in the west.

b the california gold rush brought in people from all over the world, which resulted in cultural diffusion among the settlers there.

c california was known to accept many forms of religion and ethnicities, so people from different cultures migrated there to start new lives.

d those settlers who brought slaves with them to the west created cultural interactions between native americans, african americans, and themselves.

I'm on this lesson too i'm pretty sure its B The California Gold Rush brought in people from all over the world, which resulted in cultural diffusion among the settlers there.

1- in bradbury's  fahrenheit 451, all books are banned and burned upon discovery. in the nazi germany, books considered to be subversive to the regime would be burned to keep the population from generating ideologies that could challenge nazism.

2- was bradbury correct in his literal interpretation of  “where they burn books, they will also ultimately burn people.”? in some way, yes. when knowledge is not only limited, but also controlled, the people tied to it are led to their demise. just like in the novel, people in nazi germany who owned  subversive books were punished not only by the burning of their property, but also by the discrimination that followed after such a public form of consequence. if a person was seen being confiscated  subversive  books, they may be considered as an ally to the jews, which meant pretty much the same as being the enemy back then. because of the extreme exclusion and suffering that followed this punishment, it's almost like dying a slow death.

in this way, the phrase  “where they burn books, they will also ultimately burn people.” is both literal and figurative.
