Battle of Vicksburg
The Battle of Vicksburg in July 1863 was an important Union victory that gave them control of the Mississippi River. General Ulysses S. Grant led the Union forces of around 75,000 men against General John C. Pemberton's outnumbered Confederate force of about 34,000 defending Vicksburg. Through strategies of bombarding the city and blocking incoming boats, Grant was able to lay siege to Vicksburg until the Confederates surrendered after over a month. This split the Confederacy in half and allowed the Union to dominate western trade and cut off vital ports in Mexico.

The battle and siege of Vicksburg had a significant effect on the outcome of the Civil War. After failed direct attacks, General Grant surrounded Vicksburg and initiated a siege. After 45 days with no relief from other Confederate troops, General Pemberton surrendered the city on July 3rd, giving the Union control over the Mississippi River and cutting off Confederate states west of it from support and supplies. The dual victories at Vicksburg and Gettysburg were major boosts for the Union war effort.
9. the siege of vicksburg
Grant launched an eight-month campaign to capture the city of Vicksburg, Mississippi, which was vital for the Union to control the Mississippi River. Vicksburg's position on the river allowed it to dominate trade and split the Confederacy in two if captured. After several failed plans, Grant was finally able to transport his troops across the river below Vicksburg in April 1863. He then laid siege to the city for over a month, bombarding it continuously until the Confederate troops and civilians ran out of food and supplies and surrendered on July 4th, 1863, giving the Union control of the Mississippi River and splitting the Confederacy.

3. first battle of bull run
The First Battle of Bull Run was the first major battle of the American Civil War. On July 21, 1861, around 39,000 Union troops marched to Manassas Junction, Virginia to engage some 21,000 Confederate troops in an attempt to capture the vital railroad line. However, the Union forces were inexperienced and undisciplined, while the Confederates received reinforcements. This allowed the Confederates to halt the Union advance and eventually push their forces into a disorganized retreat back to Washington D.C. The battle proved that the war would not be short and ended Northern expectations of a quick victory, and both sides saw they needed extensive training before further combat.
The civil war
The Civil War began on April 12, 1861 and ended on May 9, 1865. It was an extremely deadly war, with approximately 625,000 soldiers losing their lives over the course of the conflict, primarily due to disease rather than battle injuries. The Union army was quite diverse, with many immigrant and African American regiments helping to contribute to the Northern victory. Key events included General Grant accepting the Confederate surrender in Vicksburg on July 4, 1863 and the assassination of President Lincoln by John Wilkes Booth on April 14, 1865.

Music played an important role in inspiring and rallying supporters to the anti-war cause.

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.

The Battle of Vicksburg

- 2. Vicksburg, 1863 The Battle of Vicksburg started on May 22, 1863 The Battle of Vicksburg happened in Vicksburg, Mississippi
- 3. MAJOR GENERALS/ LEADERS IN THE BATTLE (CONFEDERATES) Confederacy Lt. General John C. Permberton (Pictured Right) General Joseph E. Johnston, The Area Commander, In Command of The Confederate Department of the West.
- 4. MAJOR GENERALS/ LEADERS IN THE BATTLE (UNION) General Ulysses S. Grant (Pictured Right) Major General William T. Sherman Major General Nathaniel P. Banks
- 5. Stratigies of the confederacy The Confederates had only about 18,000 men, while the Union forces had over 35,000 men. The defensive line ran around 6.5 miles. The defensive line also had many notches and holes in the ground for the Confederates to hide in. They had steep hills on which the attackers had to climb to get to the crest. They had large walls where only access was ladders. They hoped it would repel the Union
- 6. STRATEGIES OF THE UNION The Union Soldiers attacked at small areas at the edges of the town until the Confederate Soldiers were in small amounts stretched across the city. After that they took to an artillery post and bombed the city. They dug holes under enemy bases and lit bombs underneath. They blocked the exit to the Mississippi with boats called Ironclads, shown to the right. There were about 13 of them. The Union knew that the Confederates would run out of food until they had few rations to spare. After that they expected surrender.
- 7. Interesting Facts to know about the Battle of Vicksburg John C. Pemberton was actually a northerner, born in Philadelphia. He decided to surrender on July 4th because "I know my people. I know we can get better terms from them on the Fourth of July than on any other day of the year.” After the surrender, the Fourth of July would not be celebrated for 81 years in Vicksburg! 77 of the Confederate’s 425 Generals were killed. Ulysses S. Grant later became our 18th President.
- 8. Who won this glorious and important battle? The Union won thanks to their battle strategy. Pemberton Surrendered the fort on July 4th, a day or two after Gettysburg. The Union
- 9. Thanks to the Union winning the Battle of Vicksburg… The Union got control of the Mississippi, splitting the Confederacy. This sealed the fate of the Confederacy, for if they could not get troops over to the other side, they would run out of men. The “Anaconda Plan” was close to being finished.
