The populist movement
The document summarizes the Populist Movement of the 1880s-1890s in the United States. Key aspects included angry farmers forming the Populist Party to protest economic problems affecting many groups. The 1890s experienced the worst economic depression at that time. The Populist Platform advocated for ideas like free silver and women's suffrage. William Jennings Bryan and Mary Elizabeth Lease were important Populist figures. The Wizard of Oz can be seen as a political allegory representing these tensions through its characters. The Panic of 1893 exacerbated the economic problems, but recovery began before Congress passed relief measures as demand increased in Europe.
Cuba & the U.S.A.
This document summarizes U.S.-Cuba relations from 1996-2002. It discusses the historical context of the 1960 U.S. embargo on Cuba and the 1996 Libertad Act. It also examines the theoretical basis for diplomatic isolation during the Cold War. During the Clinton administration, some restrictions were loosened to allow direct flights and increase money sent to family. The Bush administration then increased penalties and reduced family remittances. The document also reviews the impacts on tourism, exports, and public opinion in both countries. It concludes with lessons on Fidel Castro, Obama, and potential for future cooperation.
Chapter 23 AP The Gilded Age
This document provides an overview of the political paralysis that characterized the Gilded Age in the United States. It describes the many political scandals and periods of economic turmoil during this time, including the Credit Mobilier scandal, Whiskey Ring, Panic of 1873, and debates around monetary policy like the Crime of 1873. It also discusses the rise of third parties like the Greenback Labor Party and Populists, as well as the growth of Jim Crow laws in the South during the post-Reconstruction era.
The Hoover Era
The Great Depression had devastating impacts across the United States in the early 1930s. Unemployment reached as high as 80% in some industrial cities. A drought hit the Plains in 1930, killing many farmers and livestock and forcing over 2.5 million people to relocate west. Herbert Hoover's policies as president failed to adequately address the crisis - his emphasis on voluntary cooperation proved insufficient, and his rejection of direct relief exacerbated widespread homelessness, hunger, and suffering. By 1932, Hoover's popularity had plummeted and he lost re-election in a landslide.
Causes of the Depression
The Great Depression was caused by an unequal distribution of wealth and corporate power in the United States. Only 2% of people owned 60% of wealth, while 50% lived below the poverty level. Unemployment rose from 9% to 25% as thousands of businesses and banks failed. The stock market crash of 1929 further exacerbated economic woes, as people sold off stocks bought on credit in a panic. Together, these factors plunged the US economy into the longest and deepest recession in modern history.
Chapter 5 Section 3
The document summarizes the Populist movement in the late 19th century. Farmers faced difficulties paying loans due to high prices and shipping costs imposed by railroads. They organized groups like the Grange to unite and advocate for their interests. This led to the formation of the Populist Party to help farmers and laborers. The party platform called for measures like increasing the money supply and a graduated income tax. They supported bimetallism over the strict gold standard, as represented by William Jennings Bryan's "Cross of Gold" speech accepting the Democratic nomination in 1896.
The Hoover Years
The document summarizes the economic conditions of the Great Depression in the United States during the presidency of Herbert Hoover from 1929 to 1932. It describes high unemployment rates, declining farm incomes, drought, homelessness, hunger, and the formation of shantytowns. Hoover's policies of voluntary cooperation, increased taxes and loans are assessed as inadequate to address the crisis. His refusal of direct relief and violent response to the Bonus Army hardened public opposition to his leadership.
Populism
The document discusses the Populist movement in the late 19th century United States. Farmers and laborers formed alliances in response to economic hardship, advocating for policies like bimetallism using both gold and silver as currency. The Populist Party gained control of state legislatures and elected congressmen supporting silver coinage and opposing national banks. Their 1892 platform advocated many reforms. William Jennings Bryan gave famous speeches supporting silver coinage, but William McKinley won the 1896 presidential election, cementing the gold standard. The economic Panic of 1893 worsened conditions for farmers. Henry Littlefield linked the 1900 novel The Wizard of Oz to the Populist movement.

Groups of the west
This document summarizes key events, people, government policies, and cultural characteristics of several groups in the American West in the late 19th century, including Native Americans, cowboys/ranchers, miners, railroad workers/laborers, and farmers. It discusses events like the Sand Creek and Wounded Knee massacres, cultural aspects like the nomadic lifestyle of Native Americans and cowboy traditions, and policies around reservations and land grants that impacted these groups.
Crop failure 8 6.3
The document summarizes the economic conditions in South Carolina in the 1920s that contributed to the Great Depression. After prospering by exporting crops to Europe during World War I, South Carolina farmers faced plummeting prices, a boll weevil infestation, drought, soil depletion, and declining demand after the war ended. Farmers took on loans to expand and modernize but couldn't pay them back due to failing crops and lower prices. As a result, many banks foreclosed on farms and failed, displacing farmers. Meanwhile, the textile industry also struggled as synthetic fibers replaced cotton, international competition increased, and overproduction led to reduced work hours and layoffs. These conditions depressed South Carolina's economy in the 1920
The populist
The Populist Movement established the Populist Party in 1892 to protect farmers' interests and included demands to help American people through policies like increased currency, income tax, and government ownership of railroads. In 1896, the Populist Party fused with the Democratic Party to help their joint political goals as they supported William Jennings Bryan for president. However, Bryan's defeat destroyed the Populist Party, though some of their ideals were later embraced by the Progressive Movement.
1865 1890 in a Nutshell
The document summarizes major events in US history from 1865 to 1890. After the Civil War ended in 1865, the South faced massive physical, psychological, and economic destruction. During Reconstruction, tensions remained high as freed slaves struggled for rights. Industrialization and big business grew rapidly during this time period, bringing both economic opportunity and social problems. Westward expansion continued as farming and ranching developed further west and the frontier closed by the 1890s.
populism-final
The document summarizes the rise of populist movements in the 1890s among farmers in response to economic hardship. Multiple farmers alliances and organizations formed and eventually merged to become the Populist Party in 1892. The Populist Party platform advocated for financial reforms like free silver coinage and taxation of large incomes and corporations. However, the Populists failed to gain widespread victory and lost the 1896 presidential election, contributing to the decline of the populist movement.
Civil War I
This document discusses the outbreak of the American Civil War, including Lincoln's challenges in dealing with secession and the attack on Fort Sumter. It analyzes the military, economic, diplomatic, and political factors that impacted the Union and Confederacy during the early years of the war. Key events mentioned include Lincoln calling for troops after Fort Sumter, tensions with Britain over blockade running and ship building, and the economic difficulties faced by the South compared to the North's stronger financing of the war effort.
Week One Powerpoint
The document provides an overview of major economic, political, and social transformations in the United States during the Gilded Age from 1865 to 1920. Key developments include a rapid increase in population, manufacturing, and GDP, leading the country to become a global industrial power. New large-scale corporations dominated industries like steel and railroads. Wealthy industrialists known as "robber barons" like Jay Gould and Andrew Carnegie amassed huge fortunes but were widely disliked. Labor unrest grew as unions like the Knights of Labor organized workers seeking better conditions. Corruption was also widespread as business interests increasingly influenced government.
Impact of reconstruction 852
The document summarizes the economic impact of Reconstruction on different social classes in South Carolina. Plantation owners lost most of their wealth and labor force due to emancipation and had to do farm work themselves or pay wages. Many entered sharecropping agreements which reestablished their control over freedmen. Sharecropping trapped many African Americans and poor whites in a cycle of debt. The economy remained depressed and dependent on agriculture. Northern carpetbaggers took advantage of economic opportunities in the South. Overall, Reconstruction had varying impacts but did not fundamentally change the economic structure in South Carolina.
Week 16 (Sectionalism and the Civil War)
The Civil War began as tensions rose between the North and South over the issues of states' rights and slavery. The Compromise of 1850 attempted to address these tensions but failed to provide a long-term solution. Violence increased throughout the 1850s as the country moved toward civil war. Abraham Lincoln was elected president in 1860, prompting Southern states to secede and form the Confederate States of America. The Civil War officially began in April 1861 and resulted in over 600,000 casualties before ending in April 1865 with the Union victory and emancipation of slaves.
Pops
The document summarizes the rise of the Populist movement in the 1890s among American farmers in response to economic hardship. Various agricultural organizations formed alliances that eventually merged to establish the Populist Party in 1892. The party advocated for policies like tariff reduction, income tax, and government regulation of railroads. While the Populist candidate in 1892 received over 8% of the popular vote, the party did not gain significant power. Economic panics in the 1890s exacerbated farmers' issues and increased their political involvement, but the Populist agenda was halted after their candidate, William Jennings Bryan, lost the 1896 election.
Effects of the Depression in the USA
The Depression had severe consequences for many Americans. Banks ran out of money after people withdrew their savings, leading them to close. Unemployment skyrocketed to 25% in 1932, leaving many homeless as they could not pay mortgages or loans. Farmers struggled with falling prices and dust bowls, leaving crops rotting unsold or harvested. Charities operated soup kitchens and bread lines to help the unemployed as there was no social safety net.
Populism take 2
The document summarizes the Populist movement of the late 19th century in the United States. Farmers faced economic hardship due to overproduction of crops, mechanization leading to more debt, crop disasters, and monopolistic practices by corporations. The Populist movement aimed to help struggling farmers through organizations like the Grange and political efforts including the Populist Party which advocated for bimetallism and "Free Silver" to increase the money supply. The movement declined after William Jennings Bryan's failed 1896 presidential run advocating for Free Silver.
Depression
The Great Depression was the worst economic crisis in US history. From 1929 to 1940, unemployment rose to 22% as many banks failed. People lost their savings and homes. Millions stood in breadlines. Dust storms ruined farms in the Dust Bowl. Families migrated west in search of work. President Hoover initially believed voluntary cooperation and individualism could solve the crisis, but the Depression worsened under his leadership until he implemented some relief programs, though it was too little too late and he lost re-election in a landslide to FDR.

Business cycle
The document discusses the business cycle in the United States in the early 20th century. It summarizes that the Great Depression in the 1930s was caused by inequality in wealth distribution and speculation in the stock market in the 1920s. As wages did not increase alongside production, demand slowed and unemployment rose to 25% of the population. The economy eventually recovered during World War 2 as the U.S. supplied arms to countries at war, enlisting over 10 million people into the military and factories.

Liberal Democracy by Muhammad Muinul Islam
Liberal democracy combines majority rule with protections for individual rights. It is defined as a democracy where majoritarian decisions prevail in many policy areas, as long as they do not violate individuals' liberties and rights as outlined in a constitution. There are several major variants of liberal democracy that differ in their constitutional organization, election rules, party systems, and levels of citizen participation. Examples of liberal democracies include the USA, France, and Switzerland.

Concepts of state and government
The document discusses the key differences between a state and a government. A state is a broader concept that encompasses territory, people, sovereignty and government. It is a permanent entity, while governments are temporary agencies that are delegated power by the state. A state possesses absolute sovereignty, while a government's powers are derived and limited. Citizens belong to the permanent state but only some are part of the temporary governing body. The state is an abstract concept while government is the concrete organization that acts on its behalf.

It also summarizes different views on democracy, such as pluralism with dispersed power among groups, elitism where elites dominate, corporatism with organizations negotiating, and Marxism arguing power is unequal due to class differences.
Models of democracy
Students should be able to explain the various models of democracy and their effectiveness in practice.
What is democracy
To establish a democracy on the deserted island, the committee would need to include four key elements: free and fair elections to choose and replace the government, active participation of citizens in politics and civic life, protection of human rights for all citizens, and a rule of law where laws apply equally. The democracy would also require democratic principles like respecting others' rights, rejecting violence, and being willing to compromise.

The key elements of the pre-Spanish Philippine government were the barangay system of village units each ruled by a datu. During the Spanish period, Spain claimed title to the Philippines through discovery and conquest, ruling the islands directly from the 1560s until 1898 when the country was ceded to the United States after the Spanish-American War.
State and its elements
The document defines the key elements of the state as population, territory, government, and sovereignty. It provides definitions of the state from various scholars and thinkers.

Goal 5 populism
Farmers faced economic hardship in the late 19th century due to falling crop prices and rising costs of production. This led to the rise of populist movements like the Grange and Farmers' Alliances which advocated for farmers' interests. The People's (Populist) Party formed in 1892 on a platform that included free silver coinage and regulation of railroads but they lost the 1896 presidential election to William McKinley as their message did not appeal to urban voters. Populism declined by the early 1900s as the economy modernized and their agenda was adopted by the major parties.

They faced difficult journeys and were processed through stations like Ellis Island. Nativist groups opposed immigration, leading to restrictions like the Chinese Exclusion Act. Political machines controlled cities by providing jobs and services to immigrants in exchange for votes. Corruption was rampant, as seen with Tammany Hall and the Tweed Ring. The Gilded Age was a period of vast wealth inequality and the growth of "robber barons" but also the beginning of reforms like civil service laws.

Industrial - Progressive USA
During the period from 1877-1920, the United States experienced rapid industrialization and urbanization. Many Americans moved to cities where factories provided jobs, though workers often lived in poor conditions. New technologies like the assembly line boosted industrial output but also led to concerns about labor conditions.

In response, reform movements gained momentum through muckraking journalism and efforts to empower workers through organized labor and unions.
LOAPUSH 24
This document summarizes the development of the railroad industry in the United States between 1865-1900. It describes how the railroad network expanded dramatically after the Civil War, driven by government subsidies in the form of large land grants. The completion of the first transcontinental railroad in 1869 connected the country by rail and spurred major economic growth and western expansion. However, the railroad industry was plagued by corruption and monopolistic practices. This led to the first attempts at government regulation through acts like the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887. The growth of railroads was central to the massive industrialization of the U.S. economy during this period.
HIST_1302_CH_16
The Gilded Age saw the rise of big business and industrialization in America following the Second Industrial Revolution from 1870-1890. Railroads expanded and helped drive mass production and distribution of goods. New inventions like the light bulb and telephone transformed the economy. Large corporations like Standard Oil and U.S. Steel consolidated power through monopolies and vertical integration. Working conditions were difficult and dangerous for many laborers. Inequality grew between the wealthy industrialists and working class. The West was developed through farming, mining, and conflicts with Native Americans over land. Corruption was rampant in Gilded Age politics as business interests dominated the government.
Populism and the Election of 1896
The document discusses the rise of populism among American farmers in the late 19th century. Farmers faced economic hardships during the Gilded Age due to falling crop prices, demonetization of silver, and restrictive banking policies. This led to the formation of groups like the Grange movement and Farmers' Alliances to advocate for farmers' interests. In 1892, the Populist Party was established to push for reforms like government ownership of railroads and an eight hour work day. The party gained support but ultimately lost the 1896 presidential election to William McKinley, marking a defeat for populism and victory for the gold standard.

The growth of industrialism
This document discusses the growth of industrialism in the United States in the late 19th century. It describes how technological innovations led to a transformation from an agrarian to an industrial economy, with a shift from farm goods to industry. This industrialization process resulted in urbanization as many migrated from rural to urban areas for new job opportunities. However, the growth of industry also brought poor living and working conditions, long hours, child labor, and other hardships for many Americans.
Institutionalized racism
This document discusses institutionalized racism in post-Reconstruction America. After the Civil War, the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments outlawed slavery and granted citizenship and voting rights to African Americans. However, white supremacist groups like the Ku Klux Klan used violence and intimidation to take away these rights. The Supreme Court also upheld "separate but equal" policies like Jim Crow laws, legitimizing racial segregation and discrimination until 1954.
Immigration
This document provides information about European immigration to the United States between 1865 and 1915. It discusses the types of immigrants, their living and working conditions, and the hardships they faced. Students will assume the role of a European immigrant and record journal entries describing their reasons for leaving their homeland, the journey to America, processing at Ellis Island, living conditions in ethnic enclaves in cities, and working conditions and treatment by native-born Americans.
Claims and evidence immigration
This document provides instruction on writing claims, evidence, and reasoning. It defines a claim as a statement that answers a question or states an opinion. Evidence is defined as facts that support a claim. Reasoning is a justification for how the evidence supports the claim using facts or data. An example is provided of a claim about harsh conditions faced by Chinese immigrants, supported by evidence of a riot targeting Chinese residents and reasoning about further discrimination with the Chinese Exclusion Act.
The creation of new governments
This document provides an overview of the creation of new governments following the American Revolution. It describes how the Articles of Confederation created a very weak national government with limited powers, which led to problems like financial troubles, inflation, and Shays' Rebellion. This convinced leaders that a stronger central government was needed, which led to the drafting of the U.S. Constitution to address the failures of the Articles of Confederation by strengthening the national government while balancing federal and state powers.
Declaration of independence
The document discusses the Declaration of Independence and its relationship to Enlightenment ideas of natural rights and social contract. It provides context for the grievances listed in the Declaration of Independence against King George III, including taxation without representation, imposition of troops, and deprivation of trial by jury. It also summarizes the preamble and conclusion of the Declaration which reference the need to dissolve political ties with the King due to tyranny and assert the right to self-governance.
The vietnamwar
This document provides background on the Vietnam War from 1954 to 1975. It summarizes key events including France's loss of control to Ho Chi Minh's forces in 1954, the division of Vietnam along the 17th parallel, the US escalation of military involvement under Kennedy and Johnson, the Tet Offensive of 1968 that turned US public opinion against the war, Nixon's Vietnamization policy, the 1973 ceasefire agreement, and the fall of Saigon to North Vietnamese forces in 1975. It also discusses the human and financial costs of the war as well as its lasting impacts.
People in societies
This document provides an overview of different cultural perspectives in the United States. It discusses the contributions made by African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, and Asian Americans. It also profiles four prominent political action groups: the NAACP, NOW, AIM, and UFW. The document concludes by assigning students an activity where they will create a "quilt square" representing the contributions of one of these cultures to American society.
Marbury v. Madison
Marbury v. Madison established the Supreme Court's power of judicial review. John Adams appointed William Marbury as a judge on his last day in office, but the appointment was not delivered before Thomas Jefferson took office as the new president. Jefferson refused to deliver the appointment. The Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice John Marshall, ruled that while Marbury was entitled to his appointment, the court did not have constitutional authority to force Jefferson to deliver it. This established the Supreme Court's ability to declare acts of Congress unconstitutional.

Civil Rights
The civil rights movement aimed to end segregation and racial discrimination through nonviolent protest. Major events included the 1954 Brown vs. Board of Education Supreme Court ruling declaring segregation unconstitutional, the Montgomery Bus Boycott led by Martin Luther King Jr., and the 1965 Voting Rights Act and Civil Rights Act addressing legal discrimination. However, the movement faced resistance through violent attacks and the emergence of more militant groups like the Black Panthers advocating for black power through any means necessary.
Populism
The document summarizes key events and developments during the Agricultural Revolution period in late 19th century America. It discusses the Homestead Act, cattle drives, wheat imports, irrigation projects, and population growth in the West. It also outlines concerns farmers faced like overproduction and natural disasters, as well as movements like the Grange and Populism that aimed to empower farmers politically and address issues like railroad rates and trusts.
Labor unions
By 1904, over two million laborers had joined labor unions in hopes of improving poor working conditions and policies set by big businesses. Two major unions that emerged were the Knights of Labor, which advocated for all workers, and the American Federation of Labor, which focused on skilled white male workers. Businesses strongly opposed unions and their demands for higher wages and safer work environments. They viewed unions as socialist and had many leaders arrested. Disputes between businesses and unions often led to violent strikes and riots between police and protesters. Over time, unions succeeded in establishing limits on work hours and compensation for workers injuries, and many states passed child labor laws.
Nixon to present
The document summarizes major events and trends in the United States between 1969-1980. It describes Richard Nixon's presidency and foreign policy successes but also the Watergate scandal that led to his resignation. It discusses the economic challenges of stagflation and energy crises. It also outlines social changes including the women's and gay rights movements and shifting family structures.
Kennedy and johnson
Kennedy intensified tensions during the Cold War through military buildups and confrontations with the Soviet Union over Berlin and Cuba. His policies deepened American involvement in Vietnam by supporting the Diem regime and increasing military advisors. Kennedy took responsibility for the failed Bay of Pigs invasion but successfully navigated the Cuban Missile Crisis. His domestic policies pursued economic growth and reform but made limited progress on civil rights due to Southern opposition in Congress. Johnson continued and expanded Kennedy's reforms through Great Society programs while also escalating US involvement in the unpopular Vietnam War. The turbulent 1960s saw widespread social unrest and protest movements emerge over civil rights, Vietnam, and other issues.
Cold war truman eisenhower
1) After WWII, Europe was divided between the Soviet-controlled Eastern bloc and the US-influenced Western bloc.
2) The US sought to contain Soviet expansion through policies like the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan, and alliances like NATO.
3) The Cold War expanded to Asia, with the Soviets backing Mao's China and the US supporting Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan and consolidating control of Japan. The Korean War further escalated tensions.
Wwii
World War II was a transformative event that required unprecedented mobilization of the US economy and society. The US initially adopted a strategy of holding actions in the Pacific while focusing on Europe. Key battles like Midway arrested Japanese expansion and allowed resources to shift to Europe. At home, wartime production and millions of new workers transformed the nation. The war also accelerated social changes like the civil rights movement and women's roles. After Allied victories in Europe and the Pacific, the war ended with the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945.

Conflict In The 1920s
The document summarizes several social, political, and economic trends in the United States during the 1920s. It discusses the rise of Marcus Garvey and the UNIA movement advocating black separatism and return to Africa. It also describes the growing Mexican and Puerto Rican populations settling in southwestern cities and working low-paying jobs. Conflict arose from rapid social changes which alarmed white Protestants and led to the resurgence of the KKK. Prohibition created enforcement problems while the Scopes trial debated teaching evolution in schools. The Sacco and Vanzetti case and corruption scandals plagued Harding's presidency, while Coolidge avoided scandals and focused on business interests. The stock market crash of 1929 marked the

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
