The document summarizes tensions over slavery in the United States prior to the Civil War. It describes how Africans were captured and sold into the transatlantic slave trade, with millions dying during the journey or in captivity. The southern economy became dependent on slave labor to cultivate cash crops like cotton and tobacco. Slavery divided the nation along sectional lines, pitting the industrialized North against the agricultural South. Southern states defended the institution of slavery, leading to conflicts over states' rights and the expansion of slavery into new western territories. Enslaved people resisted through acts of sabotage, running away, and occasional rebellions, despite facing severe punishment if caught. The tensions over slavery and states' rights would
Slaves resisted their owners in various ways, both violently and non-violently. Non-violent resistance included working slowly, pretending to be ill, and escaping, sometimes with the help of the Underground Railroad network. Violent resistance involved damaging owner's property, hurting or killing farm animals, and in rare cases, attacking or killing owners. Famous slave rebellions, like Nat Turner's rebellion in 1831 and the 1861 Baptist War in Jamaica, showed that some slaves were willing to take up arms against their oppressors.

This document discusses the status of Aboriginal/Native Americans as nationals of the United States of North America rather than citizens of the United States. It argues that the US government is a colonial corporate entity that went bankrupt in 1933, while the USNA is the sovereign general government formed by the union of states. As nationals of USNA, Aboriginal Americans owe no allegiance to the US government and were not affected by its bankruptcy. The document distinguishes between the constitutional Congress of the USNA and the current non-constitutional US Congress comprised of civil service employees.
El documento resume el imperialismo europeo en los siglos XIX y XX, explicando sus causas económicas, políticas e ideológicas, así como sus consecuencias. Las potencias europeas expandieron su dominio sobre África, Asia y Oceanía entre 1875 y 1914, justificando su colonialismo por razones de superioridad racial y la necesidad de "civilizar" a otros pueblos.

The Industrial Revolution first occurred in England due to several key factors: the Agricultural Revolution created a surplus of food and disposable income; Britain had valuable raw materials like cotton and coal near the surface; its many navigable rivers provided efficient transportation; there were no internal tariffs hindering trade; and a stable government and banking system encouraged industrial development. A large, mobile workforce was also available to meet the labor demands of emerging factories.
The document discusses the rise of populism in the late 19th century United States. Farmers faced numerous economic hardships like fluctuating crop prices, high interest rates, and railroad monopolies. The Granger Movement and Farmers' Alliances organized farmers politically but had limited success. In the 1890s, the Populist Party united agrarian interests and called for silver coinage, income taxes, and other reforms. However, populism ultimately failed because southern farmers stayed loyal to the Democratic Party, which adopted the Populist issue of free silver coinage, and the movement was hampered by regional divisions and prejudices among some of its supporters.

Undocumented youth in America face many challenges. As of 2012, there were 1.1 million undocumented immigrant minors in the US. Many were brought to America by their parents without realizing their illegal status. Social workers can help these youth by educating them about options to gain legal status like the DREAM Act or student visas. They also accompany minors to legal proceedings since the government does not provide lawyers. Social workers aim to find pathways to citizenship for youth who know America as their home.
The American Civil War was fought between 1861-1865 between the Union (North) states led by Abraham Lincoln and the Confederate (South) states led by Jefferson Davis. The war began after Southern states seceded from the Union after Lincoln's election on the issue of slavery. Key battles included Gettysburg in 1863 and the Union capture of Richmond in 1865, which led to the South's surrender. The war resulted in the Union's victory and the abolition of slavery in the United States.
Ethnic groups are defined by shared language and culture, often including shared values and religion. Religious groups are defined by a common belief system. Literacy rates and poverty rates are closely linked - countries with higher literacy rates tend to have lower poverty rates and better standards of living. Literacy rates also affect economic development, with illiteracy limiting job opportunities and higher literacy allowing for more skilled jobs.
The document provides a timeline and overview of the history of slavery in America from 1619 through the end of the Civil War in 1865. It discusses how slavery began as a way to address the labor needs of the colonies, and how the slave trade expanded greatly. The Atlantic slave trade resulted in millions of Africans being forcibly transported to America, where they were treated as property and faced cruel conditions. Resistance to slavery grew over time through escapes on the Underground Railroad and abolitionist literature. After the Civil War, African Americans continued facing exclusion through policies like Plessy v Ferguson and racism during the Great Migration and Harlem Renaissance period.
Slavery was a global system that connected five continents through the trade of African slaves to produce goods in the Americas. While many forms of servitude existed, the harshest was chattel slavery where slaves were the permanent, hereditary property of their owners. Slavery began in ancient societies but was largely replaced by serfdom in Europe by the 5th century AD. However, European powers later revived the slave trade, transporting over 10 million Africans to the Americas between the 15th-19th centuries, with around 430,000 going to what would become the US. Tensions over the expansion of slavery contributed to the American Civil War, which ultimately led to emancipation.
The document describes the Washington Monument in Washington D.C. It provides details about its design, location, construction timeline, and purpose of honoring George Washington. It also shares perspectives from a survey where most saw the monument as representing American strength, greatness, and freedom, though one saw it as a waste of taxpayer money. The document concludes by arguing the monument should be featured on a new $250 bill due to its importance as a symbol of America's beginning.
George Washington was born in 1732 in Virginia. He served as the first President of the United States from 1789 to 1797. Washington led the Continental Army to victory in the American Revolutionary War and presided over the writing of the United States Constitution.

Virtually all of Africa was colonized by European countries after World War 2, and African countries started
The document summarizes key changes that occurred in American cities between 1875 and 1925, including rapid urbanization and population growth driven by immigration and internal migration. Millions of immigrants, especially from southern and eastern Europe, settled in urban ethnic enclaves, increasing cultural diversity. At the same time, many African Americans moved north as part of the Great Migration. Cities struggled with overcrowded housing, unsanitary conditions, crime, and lack of infrastructure. Reforms attempted to impose order through city planning movements and social welfare programs. Leisure and consumption also grew as urban residents gained more free time.

PRIDE is commemorated every June to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in New York City, when patrons and supporters of the Stonewall Inn staged an uprising to resist the police harassment and persecution to which LGBTQ+ Americans were commonly subjected. This uprising marked the beginning of a movement to outlaw discriminatory laws and practices against LGBTQ+ Americans.
This year, I am celebrating PRIDE by sharing bits of our rich history. Every day this month, I will post a series of profiles highlighting LGBTQ+ icons who have made significant contributions to society. Take a moment to learn about these scientists, artists, athletes, activists, business and political leaders whose stories inspire me to live authentically and to continue the fight for equity and justice, every day.
Happy PRIDE 2020!

The Roaring 20's 5P Project: Grace BerkelGraceBerkel1
The Roaring Twenties was a decade of social and cultural change in the United States. New freedoms for women and the emergence of new music and dances like jazz contributed to cultural rebellion against traditional values. However, the implementation of Prohibition had unintended consequences, as it led to a boom in organized crime due to bootlegging and speakeasies. By the end of the 1920s, Prohibition was widely seen as a failure and was later repealed.
Jim Crow laws legally enforced racial segregation in the United States from the 1880s to the 1960s, primarily but not exclusively in Southern states. These laws mandated the separation of public places and facilities for blacks and whites, including schools, hospitals, restaurants, public transportation, and other public accommodations. The laws targeted African Americans and prohibited interracial marriage. While some states repealed certain Jim Crow laws in the early 20th century, segregation remained widespread and legal until the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s challenged discrimination and racial segregation, culminating in the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

AHMIR’S POST:
African- Americans from the rural South did not migrate to the north voluntarily, but were pushed out of the south by certain factors. Also, choosing to move to the North was not a coincidence, but were pulled there by some factors as well.
The massive migration that occurred between 1916 to 1970 was primarily caused by the push factor such as convict leasing, segregation, disenfranchisement, and the widespread increase in racist ideologies that were making the lives of African- Americans unbearable. They were forced to move in large troops when Jim Crow introduced laws that kept the African Americans in an inferior position which denied them political rights even to air out their grievances. So they chose to move to the North, where racial segregation was not mandated even though racism was rampant.
Another factor that pushed the African-Americans out to the North was the lack of employment opportunities in the South. The poor economic conditions in the South made survival very difficult. The situation was made worse by the continuous failing of crops, limitation of sharing cropping on the farms, limited land for farming, and crop damage from the boll weevil. Also, the Jim Crow laws' social and racial oppression made possible meant that they could not even market their produce freely. The lynching of African Americans did also push them out in large numbers.
The main pull factor for the great migration of African Americans to the North was encouraging reports of reasonable wages and better living conditions in the North. These reports came from African soldiers who had returned from the war and were also reported in the African American newspapers. They were pulled by the economic opportunities found in the industrial cities, which mean ...
The 1920s was a decade of social and cultural change in the US. Tensions arose between traditional and modern values as the economy grew. Racism led to violence targeting African Americans. Immigrants also faced hostility and new quotas were imposed. Cultural innovations like jazz flourished while Prohibition had unintended consequences like increased crime. The Scopes Trial illustrated the ongoing conflict between science and religion.
The 1920s was a decade of social and cultural change in the United States. Tensions arose between traditional and modern values as the nation grappled with issues like immigration, prohibition, religious fundamentalism, and racial unrest. At the same time, the economy and popular culture thrived with new innovations in art, literature, music, technology, and entertainment. The decade saw both conflict and prosperity as American society shifted in new directions.

It begins with early demonstrations in the 1950s-60s called Annual Reminders organized by groups like the Daughters of Bilitis and the Mattachine Society. The 1969 Stonewall riots in New York City marked a watershed moment that led to the first Pride march commemorating the uprising in 1970 called Christopher Street Liberation Day. Pride events then spread to other cities in the 1970s and the month of June was designated Pride Month in honor of the Stonewall anniversary. The document traces the evolution and commercialization of Pride parades through the 1980s-90s with more mainstream organizations taking over organization.

Effective Strategies for Online Course Discussion BoardsRob Darrow
This document discusses the use of online discussion boards in education from K-12 to college levels. It provides examples of effective discussion board questions and structures for facilitating online discussions. The benefits of discussion boards include increased interaction between students and teachers as well as reflection.

Rob Darrow believes that blended learning, which combines both online and in-person instruction, will become the standard model in K-12 schools. This will allow schools to better personalize learning for each student and inform their future career and college choices. He envisions schools providing learning in various formats to meet student needs, including face-to-face, online, blended, and technology-enhanced. Formative and summative assessments are important both in-person and online using tools like discussions, blogs, presentations and self-assessments. Blended learning has the potential to transform education by personalizing learning for all students.

Prove it to Me Blues – Ma Rainey
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRyaUcVfhak
• Went out last night, had a great big fight
Everything seemed to go on wrong
I looked up, to my surprise; The gal I was with was gone
Where she went, I don't know. I mean to follow everywhere she goes;
Folks say I'm crooked. I didn't know where she took it
I want the whole world to know
They say I do it, ain't nobody caught me; Sure got to prove it on me;
Went out last night with a crowd of my friends
They must've been women, 'cause I don't like no men
It's true I wear a collar and a tie; Makes the wind blow all the while
Don't you say I do it, ain't nobody caught me
You sure got to prove it on me
Say I do it, ain't nobody caught me; Sure got to prove it on me
I went out last night with a crowd of my friends
It must've been women, 'cause I don't like no men
Wear my clothes just like a fan; Talk to the gals just like any old man

and dishonorable

code for homosexual, which would effectively disqualify
the veteran from receiving any GI rights or benefits, and it
barred many discharged soldiers from getting civilian
jobs.

homosexuals
• Not an honorable discharge – no access to veteran
benefits or GI Bill after World War II.
