In town, they would not sell to japs. why did mirikitani choose to use the word “japs” in the third line of this excerpt from “attack the water”? that is how she and her family referred to themselves. she needed fewer syllables to fit the rhythm of the poem. that was the derogatory term that others called her family. she wanted the poem to be an accurate portrayal of her family.

The right answer would be the third one: That was the derogatory term that others called her family.

The poem speaks about the reality of prisoners of war, and in this specific context, the japanese people in Vietnam, after the strategic destruction of dams around a local river.

The reason why they would not sell anything to them at the town, was because of the conflict that arose, which led them to be seen as enemies.  

sorry i really dont know

both are true, the congress does have the power to create banks, even if this power is not specifically described in the constitution, since there is nothing restricting it and there is power given to the congress to make "all laws which shall be necessary and proper". maryland was not allowed to tax a branch of the national bank operating there, and the supreme court decided that no state could. both of these topics were discussed in a decision of the mcculloch v. maryland case in 1819.
