Abraham Lincoln was president of the Union before and during the Civil War. His views in favor of abolishing slavery and his actions to raise troops for the Union caused Southern states to secede, starting the war. Harriet Beecher Stowe's anti-slavery novel Uncle Tom's Cabin increased sectional tensions between North and South. Henry Clay proposed the Compromise of 1850 in an attempt to calm tensions, but failing to address slavery led tensions to continue building until the outbreak of war. Harriet Tubman led scores of slaves to freedom along the Underground Railroad, deepening divisions between slave states and free states.

Committee Of Five
The Committee of Five, consisting of Roger Sherman, John Adams, Robert Livingston, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson, was chosen by the Second Continental Congress to draft a declaration explaining why the 13 colonies were declaring independence from Britain. The document they wrote included a preamble listing grievances against King George III and a formal declaration of American independence. Caesar Rodney, Delaware's third delegate who was dying of cancer, rode through the night to break a tie in Congress and vote in favor of independence. Copies of the declaration were then sent to all 13 colonies.
Gun control the second amendment ghost dance
This virtual book tour document provides a table of contents for 12 chapters that will discuss issues surrounding gun control, current events related to gun violence, debates over the right to bear arms as protected by the US Constitution, differences between defensive and offensive weapons, rising crime statistics, safety issues, and blame. The author aims to address concerns over mass shootings driving new gun regulations while acknowledging there are already over 20,000 gun laws, and that media coverage can distort events and sensationalize incidents involving guns. Later chapters will note that gun deaths in the US are largely from suicide and criminal-on-criminal violence, while accidents are a small fraction, and that gun crime is rare in other countries like Sweden with fewer firearms.

Many people were blacklisted or imprisoned due to being accused of communist sympathies, including the Hollywood 10, Alger Hiss who was convicted of perjury, and Julius and Ethel Rosenberg who were executed for spying.

Black history
The document discusses the history of slavery in America from its origins to the Civil Rights Movement. It began with the slave trade bringing Africans to America and Brazil for farm labor due to lack of manpower. Slavery was legal and slaves had to obey their owners. The Civil War was fought from 1861-1865 over slavery, with the North abolishing it and the South wanting to maintain it. Jim Crow laws after the war legally separated and discriminated against blacks. The Civil Rights Movement from the 1950s onward sought equal treatment and an end to discrimination through protests and legal changes. Harper Lee's novel To Kill a Mockingbird reflected these racial issues and Atticus Finch represented fighting for justice.

2) Research is needed on the health effects of small arms, contributing risk factors, and impacts of interventions. Surveillance systems and studies in various settings can help identify trends and priorities.

A Spy In The Enemy S Country Quot Black Like Me As Cold War Narrative
This document provides context about John Howard Griffin's 1961 book "Black Like Me" and analyzes it within the broader cultural and political landscape of the Cold War era. It argues that the book's depiction of Griffin passing as a black man in the Deep South aided the US government's goal of containing racial tensions and projecting an image of racial justice abroad. By exposing racism in the South, the book isolated that region as un-American and helped counter Soviet propaganda about American racism. The timing of the book's release in 1961 also aligned with broader cultural shifts around that time, such as the normalization of informing on others that stemmed from McCarthyism-era investigations and exposés.
