What role did Christianity play in Black communities during the colonial era to 1829?
Introduction Christianity played major roles in Black communities during the colonial era to1829. The black in the United States had been degraded into a miserable life of slavery. This degradation put them under very cruel conditions unlike their white counterparts. Thus, Christianity played a major role in the black communities at this time. Since most African slaves came from different regions in the continent, they lacked a common culture on which to coalesce. Their home religions and cultures had initially respected deities from where they came. Thus, Christianity acted as a representation of their ancient African traditions. The Africans ...

Binomial distribution
When do we use the binomial distribution? The binomial distribution is very useful when there are very many trials conducted in an experiment, say n, and we want to get the probability of finding success where each number of successes has a given probability of occurrence. The probability of success is denoted by p while that of failure is the complement, i.e. (1-p) (Collani & Dräger, 2011). The binomial distribution gives some of the probabilities that are associated with repeated Bernoulli independent trials.
Characteristics of binomial distribution

According to Davies, there are several health issues around the world that should get appropriate attention concerning the infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Therefore, the international relations (IR) should approach the health issues while considering the security of individuals (globalists) and the states (statist). Davies argues that the problem does not show too many differences of the above perspectives (globalist and statist). However, the international relations can only afford to contribute and practice health issues through security languages.
