Chapter 21 ppt
1) The 1920s saw many changes in American society as new technologies like radio and movies shaped popular culture while women gained more freedoms through fashion, employment, and birth control.
2) Prohibition led to conflicts between rural and urban areas as organized crime rose with bootlegging and speakeasies while only 19% supported it by the mid-1920s.
3) The Scopes Trial highlighted tensions between religious fundamentalism and science with the teaching of evolution as America debated modernity.
French & Indian War
The French & Indian War was a pivotal conflict between 1754-1763 that shaped the destiny of America. It involved France, Great Britain, and numerous Native American allies fighting for control of the Ohio Valley and surrounding lands. The war resulted in British victory over France and the removal of France from North America. However, it also increased tensions between the British colonies and the crown, ultimately leading to the American Revolution.
Slavery & Secession
Brief presentation about the coming of the Civil War from 1856 - 1860. Including Lincoln-Douglas Debates, Dred Scott, Harpers Ferry, and the Election of 1860.
Chapter 22
The document summarizes the economic troubles that led to the Great Depression in the United States. It describes how basic industries struggled, farmers faced debt and foreclosures, and consumers overspent on credit. The stock market crash of 1929 further weakened the economy. As unemployment rose sharply, many Americans lost their homes and lived in shantytowns with little access to food or work. President Hoover initially reassured the public but his policies failed to alleviate widespread suffering. The Bonus Army march on Washington damaged Hoover's reputation when his forces violently dispersed the unemployed World War I veterans seeking early payment of bonuses.
The black codes
- President Lincoln and Johnson's Reconstruction plans pardoned Southerners who took an oath of allegiance and allowed states back into the Union when 10% of voters did so, and they approved the 13th Amendment banning slavery.
- The Black Codes restricted freed slaves' behavior and the 13th Amendment made slavery illegal but not discrimination, outraging Southern supporters of slavery.
- The 14th Amendment granted citizenship and equal protection to freed slaves, while the 15th Amendment gave black men the right to vote, leading the KKK to form and intimidate Republican voters through violence and disguise.
Emancipation Proclamation
The document summarizes Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 1863. It notes that Lincoln initially did not believe he had the power as President to abolish slavery but issued the proclamation after the Battle of Antietam to weaken the Confederacy by freeing slaves in rebel states. The proclamation freed slaves only in states that had seceded from the Union but did not apply to border states. It allowed African Americans to serve in the Union army and marked a shift in the war's focus to ending slavery, though it had limitations in scope and enforcement.
Brown Vs Board Of Education
This is a Powerpoint presentation that explains the history of segregation in the US. It is an important tool as it illustrates the background of racial tension that can exist today and open dialogue to create change and more progressive attitudes towards race. It helps promote diversity as the injustices of segregation call us all to look at our own biases. It also bolsters diversity, as Powerpoint accommodates many types of learners, both audio and visual. Powerpoint is an important technological tool to use in a class room, providing audio and visual help to students. This presentation illustrates my understanding of the program. I have uploaded this Powerpoint to a shared slide site, which further shows my comfort with the Internet in this age of technology.
The Red Scare
The Red Scare refers to two periods of intense anti-communist sentiment in the United States in the 20th century. During World War I and again in the late 1940s through 1950s, there was widespread fear of communist infiltration of the US government. This led to investigations and persecution of suspected communists, such as Ethel and Julius Rosenberg who were executed for espionage, and Alger Hiss who was accused of being a communist spy. The government implemented loyalty programs and acts restricting immigration to crack down on communist threats during the Cold War era.

Slavery was first introduced to the Americas by the Spanish after Columbus' discovery, as enslaved indigenous people began dying off. In 1619, the first recorded African slaves arrived in the Jamestown settlement, consisting of only 20 people. Initially, indentured servitude was used as the main labor force in the colonies. However, after Bacon's Rebellion in 1676 which involved former indentured servants, plantation owners began replacing indentured servants with slaves, seeing it as a more profitable long-term investment. As the slave population grew, slave revolts increased, leading plantation owners to implement stricter slave codes and laws to control the slave population.

Key figures like Clay, Daniel Webster, John C. Calhoun, and Stephen A. Douglas all played roles in the tense debates over slavery and attempts to broker a compromise.
Native Americans
Native Americans are the indigenous peoples of North America encompassing what is now the continental United States as well as parts of Alaska and Hawaii. They comprise hundreds of distinct tribes and ethnic groups that originally inhabited the land. European colonization led to centuries of conflict as Native American and European cultures clashed greatly. While estimates vary, it is believed millions of Native Americans lived in North America prior to European arrival. As the United States expanded westward in the 18th and 19th centuries, many Native American tribes were forcibly removed from their homelands and assimilated into European-American culture through the government's policies. Today, Native Americans have a unique relationship with the U.S. as they belong to sovereign tribes and nations while also being

It resulted in battles between the US and Britain in Canada, at sea, and along the Atlantic coast. Though the Treaty of Ghent in 1814 ended hostilities without resolving issues, Andrew Jackson's victory at the Battle of New Orleans gave Americans a sense of victory. The war boosted American patriotism and led to agreements that established the US-Canada border and shared control of the Oregon Country.
Impact of the New Deal

20.3--Domestic Politics (Truman & Eisenhower)
Truman pursued an ambitious domestic agenda after WWII known as the Fair Deal, which extended New Deal programs. He struggled to manage reconversion to a peacetime economy and passed the Taft-Hartley Act to regulate labor. Truman surprisingly won reelection in 1948 against Republican Thomas Dewey. Eisenhower favored a philosophy of modern Republicanism focused on fiscal conservatism. As president, he pursued deficit reduction and tax cuts but also expanded programs like Social Security. In response to Sputnik, Eisenhower signed acts creating NASA and the National Defense Education Act.
The Progressive Era
The document provides an overview of key topics related to the Progressive Era. It begins with defining the Progressive Era and its goals of protecting social welfare, promoting moral improvement, creating economic reform, and fostering efficiency. It then discusses specific accomplishments and reforms in these areas, including prohibition, women's suffrage, trust busting, regulation of railroads and food/drugs, conservation, and labor reforms. The document also summarizes the presidencies of Theodore Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, and Woodrow Wilson, outlining major policies and legislation passed under each. It focuses on their approaches to trusts, tariffs, conservation, African Americans, and events leading to the Republican party split in 1912.
Political Parties in America
Political parties play several key roles in American democracy. They nominate candidates, help present options to voters, and link the people to their government. The two major parties, Democrats and Republicans, have dominated U.S. politics for over 150 years due to factors such as the single-member district electoral system and election laws that favor the major parties. While other countries often have multi-party systems, America's "two-party system" has endured due to ideological consensus among the public and parties occupying the political center.
Chapter 5 presentation
Political parties in the United States are decentralized organizations with national, state, and local components. At the national level, each party has a national committee led by a chairperson that oversees the national convention, campaign committees, and fundraising efforts. While the President nominally leads their party, control is diffuse. Parties must satisfy a wide range of voters due to federalism and the decentralized nature of the American political system.
United States History Ch. 13 Section 3 Notes
The New Deal affected many groups in American society and changed the role of the federal government. It united diverse groups into a new political coalition that gave Democrats majority status. FDR expanded the presidency and established the principle that the government was responsible for citizens' welfare. The New Deal restored the economy but had mixed results for women and racial minorities.

Reconstruction and Its End.pptx
Reconstruction aimed to politically and economically rebuild the South after the Civil War. Lincoln's lenient Ten Percent Plan failed due to congressional opposition. Andrew Johnson also pursued a lenient presidential reconstruction, opposing civil rights for freedmen. Johnson vetoed the Freedman's Bureau Bill and Civil Rights Act of 1866. In response, Congress passed the Reconstruction Act of 1867, dividing the South into military districts overseen by the Union and protecting freedmen's civil rights. Southern resistance emerged through black codes, Jim Crow laws, and violent groups like the KKK. Reconstruction declined due to northern corruption, economic troubles, and the Compromise of 1877 which ended federal protection and allowed white "Redemption" in the South.
The Civil War in One Day v2.pptx
A few key events from the US Civil War as per the Florida BEST Standards for High School Social Studies
Causes of the Civil War 23-24
The document outlines several long-term causes that contributed to sectionalism and tensions between the North and South leading up to the Civil War. This included economic differences, with the North being more industrial and urban while the South relied on agriculture and slavery. Attempts at political compromises over the issue of slavery spreading to new territories, such as the Missouri Compromise and the Compromise of 1850, failed to resolve the core disagreements and in some cases exacerbated tensions. Key events like the Dred Scott decision and the election of Abraham Lincoln, who opposed the expansion of slavery, increased Southern fears and led several states to secede from the Union after Lincoln's election, marking the start of the Civil War.
The Politics of Reconstruction.pptx
The document discusses the three aspects of Reconstruction - political, economic, and social rebuilding - and how they differed. It then examines Abraham Lincoln's lenient reconstruction plan, Andrew Johnson's more lenient presidential reconstruction plan, and the Radical Republican's harsher Reconstruction Act of 1867. The act divided the South into military districts and imposed requirements to rejoin the Union. However, southern resistance through black codes, Jim Crow laws, and violence like the Ku Klux Klan undermined Reconstruction. Northerners eventually lost interest due to corruption scandals and economic troubles. The disputed 1876 election was resolved by the Compromise of 1877 which ended Reconstruction by withdrawing federal troops from the South.

The Economic Way of Thinking Part 2 New Look.pptx
The document discusses key concepts of economic systems and economic thinking. It explains that people create economic systems to influence choices and incentives. It also discusses that people gain from voluntary trade, that people's choices have consequences for the future, and that economic thinking involves considering marginal changes. The document tests the reader's understanding of these concepts.
Strange Fruit
This document discusses the song "Strange Fruit" and its history and impact. It describes how teacher Abel Meeropol wrote the poem after seeing a photograph of a lynching, publishing it under a pseudonym. Jazz singer Billie Holiday later set it to music, performing it and bringing attention to its graphic imagery depicting lynchings in the South and condemnation of Jim Crow laws. Though initially a protest song, over time it has come to memorialize a tragic period in history, while still felt as emotionally powerful by listeners today across different genres of music that have covered the song.
Ten Principles of Economics
The document outlines 10 principles of economics according to a chapter on the main ideas of economics. It discusses that economics studies human behavior in relation to scarcity and trade-offs between unlimited wants and limited resources. It also explains that people respond rationally by acting in their perceived best interest and considering opportunity costs when making decisions. Finally, it discusses how people interact through markets and trade, and how governments and monetary policy can impact an overall economy's production and standard of living.
Farmers and Homesteading
The Morrill Acts of 1862 and 1890 provided land grants to states to establish colleges of agriculture and mechanical arts. The Pacific Railway Act of 1862 encouraged the building of the transcontinental railroad, which was completed in 1869 at Promontory Point, Utah. The Homestead Act and new technologies like the windmill, seed drill, and barbed wire encouraged western expansion by making farming on the Great Plains possible. The Morrill Acts established land grant colleges that still educate farmers today.

Labor
1. Businesses need labor as both a factor of production and to create demand from workers' wages.
2. Labor unions aim to improve wages and conditions for workers by giving them more negotiating power collectively than as individuals. They operate at local, national, and international levels.
3. Collective bargaining involves negotiation between union and management representatives to reach a compromise agreement, and may include mediation or arbitration if negotiation fails. Both sides use various tactics like strikes or lockouts to achieve their goals during disputes.

The Holocaust
The Holocaust began in 1933 with the establishment of Dachau concentration camp and the Nazi boycott of Jewish businesses. Over the next several years, the Nazi regime passed numerous anti-Jewish laws that stripped Jews of their rights and freedoms. Events like the book burnings of 1933 and Kristallnacht pogrom in 1938 increased the persecution of Jews. The Wannsee Conference in 1942 formalized the "Final Solution" which systematized the genocide of European Jews through ghettos, concentration camps, forced labor camps, transit camps, and killing centers.
