The US entrance into World War II had a huge impact on South Carolina's economy. The state saw prosperity as industries like agriculture, textiles, and shipbuilding boomed to meet wartime demands. This created many jobs but also led to shortages of workers. As a result, more women and African Americans entered the workforce in nontraditional roles. The war also resulted in rationing of goods and recycling drives on the home front, while over 5,000 South Carolinians made the ultimate sacrifice or were wounded fighting overseas.

The United States of America preaches freedom and democracy, but what does it actually practice? In the following example the democratically elected leader of Guatemala was removed by the CIA and the United Fruit Company in 1954 and the American public was lied to by the "father of public relations", Edward Bernays.

This is the last of a series of lectures on African American history from the Civil War to the 1st WW. It covers the era of the Great Migration, focusing on their living conditions in the South and reasons that lead them to head of the North in such great numbers. The quiz with results is included.
Many history books don't mention the Great Migration. Between 1920 and 1980, six million African Americans migrated from the south. They were escaping Jim Crow Laws, Lynchings, poor job opportunities, poor education for their children. Some planned for years and saved to leave. Some saw a body hanging from a tree and took off. Many of our famous African American artists managed to accomplish what they did because their parents or grandparents left the south. This needs to be in every American history book in the country. I teach it in my American History course from 1877 to the present.

There are three classmates responses to the question below. You are to respond to their post in 125 words each. I also posted my response so that you can get n idea of my writing style
Using your book, films, and Internet resources can you describe the different types of duties and roles that enslaved people endured in America? How did the slave impact the economics of the South? How did the slave have apart in the nation's financial success?
My response to the question, so that you can have an idea of my writing style- In point of fact, it is of paramount importance to make note of the reality that slavery was most often hard work, which was as a matter of fact sustained by the use of excessive force in addition to the menace of humiliation on top of separation from not only the family but also from the community the particular slaves hailed from. In actual point of fact, the providers of the slave labour came to be generally referred to as “factories in the filed (Govan, 2010).” To add to the point, slaves were most of the times than not made use of as “clogs in machines.” Furthermore, they provide manual work in the sugar plantations usually subsisting in the West Indies as well as in the state of Carolina. Furthermore, slaves were essential in the provision of home services as well as in the carrying of luggage, as situation that differed from one state to the other.
To begin with, it is significant to make note of the actuality that, the profitability of slavery in America is a question that is enduring. Normally, economists aver that slavery in the Americas especially yield great economic profitability since the slaves provided business services devoid of pay and thus reducing the cost of production greatly. Furthermore, a glut of authors and researchers in the subject assert that, dint of the reality that workers were treated well especially in the South Americas, they tended to provide a lucrative enterprise especially for the owners of plantations. In reality, this is due to the fact that, as a consequence of proper treatment, the slaves tended to be rather productive and thus resulting in great economic success in the South Americas.
What is more a proper construction of the writing on slavery tends to divulge that slavery was “generally a highly profitable investment which yielded rates of return that compared favorably with the most outstanding investment opportunities in manufacturing (Anderson & Callman, 2012).” As result of the great productivity in the South dint of free slave labour, the products were exported in large numbers to other nations of the world, and hence earning the respective exporting nations revenue which tended to contribute to the financial success of the nations.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
