United States History Ch. 17 Section 4 Notes
Critics rejected the conformity of 1950s culture, expressed by writers like Kerouac and Ginsberg. Many Americans lived in poverty hidden from the suburbs, including in inner cities and rural areas. Minority groups faced discrimination in housing and jobs. Government programs aimed to address urban and rural poverty, but sometimes made the problems worse by displacing communities and concentrating poverty.
United States History Ch. 17 Section 3
During the 1950s, consumer spending increased as median family incomes rose and consumerism grew. Television ownership skyrocketed and families spent more on children and goods like appliances. However, social pressure largely pushed women to become full-time homemakers focused on child rearing and domestic duties. Mass culture also expanded with the rise of television and rock music, which helped spread national trends but alarmed some groups.
Ush ch. 24 section 3 notes
The document summarizes the United States' role in global politics and economics following the end of the Cold War under President Clinton. It discusses how the US supported free trade agreements like NAFTA and signed many trade deals through the WTO to promote globalization and economic growth. It also describes Clinton's foreign policy goals of intervening in conflicts in Somalia, Haiti, and the Balkans through NATO bombings. Additionally, it outlines increasing tensions in the Middle East between Israel and Palestine and the emergence of terrorist threats to the US from groups like al Qaeda.
US History Ch. 21 Section 3 Notes
The rights of diverse groups expanded in the 1960s and 1970s. Latinos and Native Americans organized for civil rights. Cesar Chavez formed the United Farm Workers union to advocate for migrant farmworkers who faced poor conditions. The Chicano movement promoted Latino culture and political representation. The American Indian Movement occupied Wounded Knee to protest treaty violations, gaining legal victories. Consumer advocates and laws improved workplace safety. People with disabilities gained equal access to education through new laws.
5.4 nationalism and sectionalism (1815-1824)
The document discusses several key topics around US economic and political development in the early 19th century:
1) It compares the economies of the North, South, and West during this time, noting differences and how economic policies led to political controversies.
2) It discusses how the Monroe Doctrine and concept of Manifest Destiny affected US relations with foreign powers and influenced westward expansion.
3) It provides context around James Monroe's presidency and the "Era of Good Feeling," as well as Henry Clay's American System economic plan and the political debates around nationalist policies.
United States History Ch. 18 Section 2 Notes
Student activists engaged in sit-ins and freedom rides to protest segregation, gaining the support of organizations like SNCC and attracting the opposition of segregationists. The violent protests in Birmingham and the March on Washington put pressure on Kennedy to propose civil rights legislation. The bill faced resistance through an 80-day filibuster, but passed after Johnson became president, and was signed in 1964 as the Civil Rights Act, banning segregation and discrimination.
Old South And Slavery
The document discusses the history of slavery and race relations in the United States from 1830 to the modern day. It covers the expansion of slavery and the slave trade, laws and court cases around slavery and segregation, the economic importance of cotton production to the South, and the emergence of Jim Crow laws and the civil rights movement towards desegregation.
Final review
The document appears to be a review guide for a US History class from 1965 to 2015. It contains multiple choice and short answer questions about various topics covered during that time period, including the Nixon and Reagan presidencies, the 1970s divorce rate, the Camp David Accords, the Mariel boatlift, the Taliban being removed from power in Afghanistan after the US invasion, and trends in modern immigration to the US. The review guide is intended to help students prepare for a final exam on US History from 1965 to 2015.

Civil rights activists achieved some legal successes in ending segregation through various strategies like legal challenges led by Thurgood Marshall and direct nonviolent protests led by Martin Luther King Jr. and others. However, white resistance slowed integration efforts. In response to the civil rights movement and social conditions, new movements emerged advocating for women's, Latino, Native American, Asian American, and LGBT rights. Liberalism influenced politics and expanded civil rights but came under attack from both the left and resurgent conservatism by the 1960s over its approach to various social and economic issues.

Apush review-key-concept-5.2-revised-most-up-to-date-version-
This document provides an overview of Key Concept 5.2 from the AP US History curriculum, which discusses the intensification of debates over slavery and other issues that led to the Civil War. It outlines the ideological, economic, and political differences between the North and South on the issue of slavery. Several attempts were made in the 1850s to resolve the slavery issue territorially, including the Compromise of 1850 and Kansas-Nebraska Act, but tensions continued rising. The election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 on a platform opposing the expansion of slavery led to Southern secession, starting with South Carolina, and marked the onset of the Civil War.

The document discusses the period after the War of 1812, labeled the "Era of Good Feelings," examining the rise of nationalism and sectionalism. While there was a spirit of nationalism under President Monroe, sectional divisions emerged over the expansion of slavery and internal improvements, bringing the era to an end with the controversial election of 1824. Economic issues like the Panic of 1819 and the Missouri Compromise of 1820 further highlighted regional differences between the North, South, and West.

9a issues divided the nation
The document summarizes some of the key issues that divided the North and South in the lead up to the Civil War. There were cultural, economic, and constitutional differences between the primarily urban industrial North and the agricultural plantation South. Slavery was one of the main issues and was opposed in the North but integral to the Southern economy. The North and South also disagreed over tariffs, states' rights, and the power of the federal government versus state governments.
USH 7.3 notes
1. Farmers in the late 19th century faced many hardships like low crop prices, high costs, and drought. They organized groups like the Grange to address these issues.
2. The Grange, formed by Oliver Kelley in 1867, advocated for farmers' rights and had over 1 million members. When it declined, the Farmers' Alliances continued its goals.
3. In response to economic troubles, the Populist Party was formed in 1892 with a platform including silver coinage and regulating railroads. It gained some political successes but ultimately did not last as a major party.

What Political, Economic And Social Changes Occurred
During Jackson's presidency in the 1830s, several significant political, economic, and social changes occurred:
- The Democratic Party emerged and focused on issues of economic policy.
- The Trail of Tears forced the removal of Native Americans from their eastern homelands to lands west of the Mississippi, resulting in many deaths along the way.
- The Indian Removal Act, which Jackson supported, aimed to acquire Native American lands in the South to open them up for white settlers and the expansion of cotton agriculture.
- Regional tensions increased over economic issues like the "tariff of abominations" which angered the South while benefiting Northern industries.
US History Ch. 18 Section 3 Notes
Freedom Summer in 1964 saw over 1,000 volunteers help register African American voters in Mississippi, though 3 volunteers were murdered. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was passed, banning literacy tests and allowing federal oversight of elections. However, discrimination and poverty still plagued urban areas, leading to riots in cities like Watts, Newark, and Detroit in 1967. Meanwhile, leaders like Malcolm X and the Black Panthers advocated for more militant approaches than King's nonviolence.
Reconstruction and the black experience
During Reconstruction, newly freed African Americans sought to reunite families separated by slavery and build new lives through education, employment, and participation in politics. Freedmen's schools educated over 150,000 students by 1869, though many southern whites opposed these schools. While some hoped the government would provide land, most freed people had to work through sharecropping systems or labor contracts that often led to debt. African Americans were actively involved in politics through the Republican party, holding hundreds of offices, though they faced growing violence from groups like the Ku Klux Klan seeking to suppress black rights and voting.
Lecture 2.3+
America's first two political parties were the Federalists, who favored a strong central government, and the Democratic-Republicans, who supported states' rights. The Whiskey Rebellion during Washington's presidency demonstrated the Federalist belief in a powerful federal authority. Subsequent presidents expanded U.S. territory through the Louisiana Purchase and victories in the War of 1812. Andrew Jackson's election in 1828 heralded the rise of democracy and populism as the nation expanded westward, though the issue of slavery divided North and South and led to the Civil War in 1861. The war resolved the questions of secession and abolished slavery, but Reconstruction efforts were opposed and racial segregation persisted afterward.
US History Chapter 12
1) Between 1790-1825, manufacturing grew in economic importance in the US and Americans began moving west across the Appalachians after Louisiana territory was explored, believing westward expansion was their "manifest destiny."
2) In the 1820s, President Monroe established the Monroe Doctrine, declaring US dominance in the Americas, as Americans pushed for more land and asserted nationalism.
3) In the 1840s, Britain and the US disputed ownership of the Oregon Territory until agreeing in 1846 on the 49th parallel border, while Americans also pushed Mexico out of Texas and the southwest through war and annexation of new lands.
US History Ch. 6 Section 2 Notes
Westward expansion had severe impacts on Native Americans. Increased conflicts with settlers led to violence as Native Americans and settlers viewed the land differently. The government forced Native Americans onto reservations to clear land for settlers, but disease, loss of buffalo herds, and broken treaties further undermined Native American cultures and ways of life. Attempts at resistance, like the Battle of Little Bighorn and Wounded Knee massacre, were ultimately crushed. Facing loss of their lands and traditions, the government aimed to assimilate Native Americans through the Dawes Act allotting private land and encouraging adoption of American customs.
US History Ch. 3 Section 4 Notes
The document outlines key events and terms around the Reconstruction era after the American Civil War. It discusses: (1) how Congress and President Andrew Johnson clashed over Reconstruction plans, with Radical Republicans favoring harsh punishment and reorganization of the South; (2) the impact of the Freedmen's Bureau and three Constitutional amendments that redefined citizenship and voting rights; and (3) how Reconstruction gradually ended in 1877 as the South retook political power and implemented segregationist policies.

Upper Canada
This document discusses power structures in 19th century Upper Canada and examines whether power has shifted over time in Canadian society. It outlines how the Family Compact oligarchy controlled the government and economy in Upper Canada, monopolizing good farmland and political positions. While settlers faced difficulties accessing land and representation, reforms were blocked by entrenched elites. The document prompts analyzing whether modern Canadian society still has a concentrated group like the Family Compact wielding power today.

Geography and economics
In a command economy, the government determines what goods to produce through central planning rather than individual decisions or market forces. One way for a country to transition from a command to a market economy is for industries previously owned by the government to become privately owned. As a result of the Great Depression, the US federal government expanded its role in regulating the economy and promoting growth. Lowering personal income tax rates would be expected to stimulate the US economy by giving consumers more money to spend, boosting demand. Supporters of Basque independence argue that political boundaries should reflect cultural characteristics like the predominant language. African Americans moved from the rural South to urban North in the late 19th/early 20th century primarily due to greater employment opportunities in northern

Dictators threaten world peace!
The document discusses the rise of dictators in the 1930s and their threat to world peace. It describes the totalitarian regimes established by Stalin in the USSR, Mussolini in Italy, and Hitler in Germany and their aggressive actions, including Germany and Italy supporting Franco in the Spanish Civil War, Japan invading Manchuria, and Hitler establishing the Third Reich. It also discusses international responses like the Kellogg-Briand Pact renouncing war and US Neutrality Acts, but suggests dictators still posed a threat to peace.

Impact of the new deal.pptb
The New Deal programs implemented in the 1930s helped lift the United States out of the Great Depression. By 1937, most Americans felt the Depression was ending due to the effects of the New Deal. However, some conservatives felt the New Deal made the government too large and powerful. Liberals also criticized the New Deal for not doing enough to reduce social and economic inequalities.

Women in public life 2
The document discusses women's roles and status in American society before the 19th century. Before the Civil War, most women were expected to marry and take care of families, as few had opportunities for jobs or education. By the late 19th century, options began expanding as college became a possibility in addition to marriage. The majority of working women in the 1870s held jobs as servants or farm laborers. Key events like the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire drew attention to the need for workplace and voting rights reforms.
Co-Creation with Customers-By Aviroop Banik,Rizvi Institute of Management Stu...
Co-creation with customers will likely survive as a marketing tool. As competition increases and profit margins shrink, companies must actively engage customers to co-create value. Customers are no longer passive receivers of products but are instead active, connected, and informed co-creators. Companies must focus on co-creating experiences with customers through dialogue, access, risk assessment, and transparency. Co-creation exposes disconnects between what companies think customers want and actual customer thinking.
Black death
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
The home front
The document discusses aspects of life on the American home front during World War 2. It provides multiple choice questions and answers about key topics like: the country that emerged as the dominant global power after the war (USA); America's low unemployment rate of 1.2% in 1944; a 25% increase in food production during the war; over 6 million women entering the workforce; more than a million newcomers pouring into California between 1941-1944; and the GI Bill of Rights being passed to help veterans transition to civilian life. It also addresses racial tensions in Detroit that led to 34 deaths in 1943 and Japanese Americans being interned due to war hysteria.

Design & Politix Do Not Mix
This document discusses the relationship between design and politics. It argues that design can both support existing political structures by making them more accessible, as well as challenge prevailing conditions by opening space for contestation and new practices. When design is applied in a partitioned, instrumental way to local policies, it can potentially lead to risks like gentrification. However, design may also refresh local politics when used to prototype new policies. The document presents examples of design initiatives that politicize public space and suggest alternatives to market-driven societies.
Corporate lessons
The document provides three corporate lessons through short stories with morals. The lessons are: 1) One must be in a high position to be idle; 2) While bullshit can get you to the top, it won't keep you there; 3) Not all who help you are friends, and in trouble keep silent. The stories use animals like crows, turkeys and birds to represent corporate lessons about change, ambition and dealing with challenges.
The decline of the roman empire
The document discusses various multiple choice questions related to the decline of the Roman Empire:
1. The last of the "Five Good Emperors" was Marcus Aurelius.
2. The group that did NOT disrupt trade in the Roman Empire was the Roman Senate.
3. The drastic drop in the value of money is called inflation.
4. Poor Roman farmers abandoned their lands due to poor weather and increased use of large estates called latifundia.
5. The Romans increasingly used mercenaries to fight in the Roman army.
6. The thing Diocletian did NOT do was draft prisoners of war.
Modularization, testing and technical debt (in a large agile project)
This document discusses lessons learned from a large agile project at Computas for a customer consolidating multiple government agencies. It covers challenges with coupling and modularization, the need for robust testing environments with service level agreements, and managing technical debt in an agile process. Prioritizing technical debt remediation work is important to avoid issues with estimates, duplicate code, bugs and developer morale over time. Transparency into technical debt is key along with shared responsibility for remediation.

In 1977, advocates for people with disabilities staged protests across the US urging enforcement of anti-discrimination legislation, continuing the pattern of civil rights protests from the 1950s and 1960s. The US civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s directly led to the end of legal segregation in public places. In the late 1800s, discrimination against women existed despite women gaining citizenship, leading to the growth of the women's suffrage movement.

American-SpanishWAR
The document summarizes the key reasons why the United States abandoned its policy of isolationism after the Spanish-American War and took on a more active international role. The main reasons included pressure from influential citizens and Congress to help Cuban independence, economic interests in expanding trade and markets abroad, and the influence of social Darwinism promoting imperialism. As a result of its increased global involvement, the US emerged as a world power with overseas territories and influence, but also faced criticism from opponents of imperialism.

Introduction
The United States is a country that has come a long way to current America we see today. It has gone through civil wars, social rearrangements, and economic turbulence that saw the reconstruction of the country into a union. This involves contingency legislation that saw the integration of the African Americans, revolutionizing of the manufacturing, transport and communication sectors improving the status of the united states and the gaining of interest and influence to and beyond North America over the nineteenth century (Coston, 2018). Through the success and attaining of economic and political stability, the US begun to focus on conquering external emperors while fighting with the European powers over territorial influence and colonial possession become evident. This article outlines the legal and social reconstruction that took place in the US, how industrialization and imperialism made the US become an international power and gain influence in the late nineteenth century.
Social and legal reforms for revolution
Reconstruction of the USA occurred majorly after the end of the civil war in many parts of the country. Many of the reforms that were instituted, especially by Congress, were aimed at addressing the factors that led to the emergence of the civil war in America. The most important reforms that were instituted during this period, especially in the southern economy was the issue of turning it from being slavery dependent economy to a state where slaves would be free and have rights (Du Bois 2017). These changes gained a major boosted through amendments to the constitution to recognize and strengthen these rights. The civil war dealt a major blow to the agricultural sector, in which plantations were damaged, and the sharecropping of the landowners and slaves leading to impoverization of the slaves and reduced output of the slave masters. The reforms sought to integrate the people of South America with those of the north in order to protect the status of the freedmen and make them be recognized by their masters. However, the southerners saw the northerners as taking advantage of the situation and ended up cutting the ties that had been established by Black Codes and reverted to use of slaves for labor (Dunleavy, 2014).
The second phase of the legal reform happened when radical Republicans pushed for the punishment of the south, although politicians such as Abraham Lincoln suggested leniency in dealing with them, they pushed for 14th antislavery amendments which saw the Republican take control over Congress with this tension coming to an end when the Congress regained prominence as a result of the infighting among Republicans in 1874, which signaled the end of reconstruction where the slaves rights were penned down in w.

The harding presidency
The document provides a summary of key events and issues during the presidency of Warren G. Harding from 1921 to 1923. It covers topics like the aftermath of World War 1, including war debts owed by France and Britain to the US. It also discusses the Washington Naval Conference of 1921-1922, the Fordney-McCumber Tariff, and the Kellogg-Briand Pact of 1928 which renounced war. Domestic issues like inflation in Germany and corruption scandals during Harding's administration, including the Teapot Dome Scandal, are also summarized.
Acquiring new lands
The document summarizes the United States' acquisition of new territories and expansion of influence after the Spanish-American War. It discusses how Puerto Rico became a US territory through the Foraker Act. In Cuba, the US helped establish an independent government but maintained influence through the Platt Amendment. The Philippine-American War broke out as Filipinos sought independence, lasting 3 years. In China, Western powers divided economic spheres of influence but the US sought to maintain the Open Door policy of equal trade access.
Section 30 1 moving toward conflict
The document outlines the increasing US involvement in Vietnam from supporting France's colonial rule in the 1940s-50s to defending South Vietnam from communism in the 1960s. It describes how the US backed France's reoccupation of Vietnam after WWII. The Vietminh resisted and gained control of North Vietnam by 1954 while the US-supported South was established. Attempts to reunify the country through elections failed, fueling the Vietcong insurgency in the South. As the South's government weakened in the early 1960s, the US role expanded under presidents Kennedy and Johnson through bombing campaigns and greater military commitment.
The right stuff!
This document discusses different skills and subjects that are important for learning and success, including how to learn effectively, the value of liberal arts in making connections across disciplines, and how passion and curiosity are more important than raw intelligence alone. It also stresses the importance of right-brain creativity, being able to think outside the box, and having a flexible free market economy that allows for experimentation.
The atomic bomb ends the war
The document provides information about key events and decisions around the end of World War II, including the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the surrender of Japan, and postwar settlements. It asks multiple choice questions about these topics, such as why Truman decided to use atomic bombs against Japan, where the first bomb was detonated, how many people died as a result of both bombs, and where Japan surrendered.
World war 2
After invading Poland in 1939, Germany next invaded France. The Germans used a new rapid military tactic called "Blitzkrieg" or lightning war in Poland. The USSR and Germany signed a non-aggression pact agreeing not to attack each other. In 1940, over 400,000 British and French soldiers were evacuated from Dunkirk back to Britain. The Battle of Britain primarily involved aircraft. Besides Germany, the USSR also invaded Poland in 1939 according to the terms of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact signed by Germany and the USSR.
China
Mao Zedong led China from 1949 until his death in 1976 and instituted communist rule. During his rule, he started the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution to modernize China's economy and remove capitalist influences. However, a lack of modern technology hampered China's growth. In the 1970s, Deng Xiaoping implemented market-based reforms and the "Four Modernizations" of industry, agriculture, science and technology, and national defense to open China to foreign trade and investment. This led to rapid economic growth and rising living standards, though it also increased inequality. The Chinese government's violent crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square in 1989 drew international criticism. In 1997, Great
Collapse of the soviet union
The collapse of the Soviet Union began under Mikhail Gorbachev in the late 1980s with policies of glasnost (openness) and perestroika (restructuring). This led to unrest in Soviet republics and nationalist movements. Lithuania was the first republic to declare independence from the Soviet Union in 1990, which the Soviet Union attempted to suppress by attacking the Lithuanian capital. An attempted coup by communist hardliners against Gorbachev failed in 1991. This weakened the Soviet Union further and led to the independence of the remaining republics, effectively dissolving the Soviet Union.
End of the cold war
The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 marked the end of the Cold War and collapse of communist authoritarian rule in Eastern Europe. The dismantling of the Berlin Wall allowed pent up energies to be unleashed in former Soviet bloc countries as democratic governments and free market systems spread. This seismic event liberated the people who had been living under Soviet communist rule and domination.
America as a world power
America emerged as a world power in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It gained overseas territories and influence after defeating Spain in the Spanish-American War of 1898. The US also played a larger role in international affairs, such as negotiating the end of the Russo-Japanese War in 1905. This period saw the beginning of America's rise to become a global superpower in the 20th century.
Imperialism and america
Imperialism and America discusses reasons for US imperialism in the late 19th century. Key reasons included the thirst for new markets to address overproduction and the belief in social Darwinism that nations should compete in the global free market. The US competed for influence especially in Asia, notably China and Korea. One influential text was Alfred Thayer Mahan's book on sea power. The US purchased Alaska from Russia for $7.2 million and overthrew the Hawaiian government led by Sanford Dole to annex the islands, partly due to sugar plantation owners' desires.
Introduction to prog
The Progressive Movement aimed to address issues created by industrialization and urbanization in the late 19th century. Reformers sought to protect social welfare, create economic reform, and foster efficiency. The Social Gospel Movement attempted to help the poor through community centers and churches. Some Progressives embraced socialism to improve conditions for factory workers. Muckrakers like Robert La Follette wrote about corruption in politics and business. City bosses often rewarded political supporters with jobs and kickbacks. The Keating-Owen Act of 1916 prohibited child labor. Before the 17th Amendment, state legislatures chose US Senators.
Introduction to ancient rome
Rome and Carthage competed for influence in the Mediterranean, leading to three Punic Wars between the two powers. The First Punic War began as a local conflict in Sicily but resulted in Rome gaining control over Sicily and extracting money from Carthage. Hannibal later invaded Italy by crossing the Alps during the Second Punic War, defeating Roman armies at Cannae, but was unable to take Rome. Rome ultimately defeated Carthage at Zama. Nearly 50 years later, the Third Punic War ended with Rome destroying Carthage to eliminate it as a rival in the Mediterranean.

The document provides multiple choice questions about ancient civilizations including the Minoans, Hittites, Phoenicians, Sumerians, and Babylonians. It asks which civilization worshipped bulls (Minoans), was located in modern-day Turkey (Hittites), was not located in Mesopotamia (Minoans), existed first (Sumerians), used early iron weapons (Hittites), was not a collection of city-states (Phoenicians), was known for seafaring (Phoenicians), was known for dye making (Phoenicians), and made a purple dye associated with royalty (Phoenicians).
Changing way of life
The document discusses the major social changes in the United States during the 1920s as the country transitioned from a rural to urban society. It describes how prohibition led to clashes between traditional rural values and new secular urban cultures. Prohibition failed to stop alcohol consumption and instead empowered organized crime which fought over control of the illegal alcohol trade. By the mid-1920s, prohibition had little support and was repealed in 1933 with the 21st amendment. The 1920s was also a period of conflict between science and religion exemplified by the Scopes Monkey Trial over the teaching of evolution in schools.
Change from republic to empire. clickerppt
The document appears to be a series of multiple choice questions about ancient Rome. It tests knowledge about Roman history from the transition from Republic to Empire, important figures like the Gracchus brothers and Julius Caesar, and the establishment of the Roman Empire under Augustus. The questions cover topics such as the killing of Caesar, the first triumvirate, and what Octavian named himself as Rome's first emperor. It also shows the scores of two competing teams and several participants.
