During World War 2, Mexican Americans and Mexicans working in the US faced discrimination, even when serving in the armed forces. To address labor shortages, the US established the Bracero Program to bring Mexican farm workers, known as Braceros, to work on US farms. Over 200,000 Braceros worked in US agriculture and industry during this time. Additionally, young Mexican Americans in Los Angeles faced harassment and attacks from white sailors for their fashion of wearing zoot suits, which led to tensions and violence between the groups.
Starting the 1890s, the US began to conquer Pacific Island nations for colonial reasons. The Hawaiian Kingdom was seized illegally. Guam was conquered in the Spanish-American War. Samoa was seized when the US stepped into the Samoan Civil War. Micronesia became a US territory and Pacific Islanders were exposed to atomic bomb testing. Three of these island nations remain US colonies today, two of them with limited rights to vote.
This presentation is of the sectional crises over states' rights and slavery's westward expansion that gave way to American Civil War. It is the fourth in a series of textbook/lecture substitutes designed for students in a college seminar on the Civil War and Reconstruction.

Chapter 5: A KIND OF REVOLUTION
The American victory over the British army was made possible by the existence of an already- armed
people. Just about every white male had a gun, and could shoot. The Revolutionary leadership distrusted
the mobs of poor. But they knew the Revolution had no appeal to slaves and Indians. They would have to
woo the armed white population.
This was not easy. Yes, mechanics and sailors, some others, were incensed against the British. But
general enthusiasm for the war was not strong. While much of the white male population went into military
service at one time or another during the war, only a small fraction stayed. John Shy, in his study of the
Revolutionary army (A People Numerous and Armed), says they "grew weary of being bullied by local
committees of safety, by corrupt deputy assistant commissaries of supply, and by bands of ragged
strangers with guns in their hands calling themselves soldiers of the Revolution." Shy estimates that
perhaps a fifth of the population was actively treasonous. John Adams had estimated a third opposed, a
third in support, a third neutral.
Alexander Hamilton, an aide of George Washington and an up-and-coming member of the new elite,
wrote from his headquarters: ". . . our countrymen have all the folly of the ass and all the passiveness of
the sheep... . They are determined not to be free.. . . If we are saved, France and Spain must save us."
Slavery got in the way in the South. South Carolina, insecure since the slave uprising in Stono in 1739,
could hardly fight against the British; her militia had to be used to keep slaves under control.
The men who first joined the colonial militia were generally "hallmarks of respectability or at least of full
citizenship" in their communities, Shy says. Excluded from the militia were friendly Indians, free Negroes,
white servants, and free white men who had no stable home. But desperation led to the recruiting of the
less respectable whites. Massachusetts and Virginia provided for drafting "strollers" (vagrants) into the
militia. In fact, the military became a place of promise for the poor, who might rise in rank, acquire some
money, change their social status.
Here was the traditional device by which those in charge of any social order mobilize and discipline a
recalcitrant population-offering the adventure and rewards of military service to get poor people to fight
for a cause they may not see clearly as their own. A wounded American lieutenant at Bunker Hill,
interviewed by Peter Oliver, a Tory (who admittedly might have been looking for such a response), told
how he had joined the rebel forces:
I was a Shoemaker, & got my living by my Labor. When this Rebellion came on, I
saw some of my Neighbors got into Commission, who were no b.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Mexican Americans Just like the African Americans, both Mexican Americans and Mexicans working in the united states faced discrimination during the war, even when they joined the armed forces. By 1944, about 17,000 Mexican American citizens and Mexicans working in the United States held jobs in ship yards, air craft factories and some other production centers in New York, Detroit, Chicago, and Kansas city.
