Ok for #4 ya know about the Melting Pot how in the heck do you make that a whole paper without making junk up??

just wondering, what do you want as a response for White Man's Burden? do you just want what we think about it or what we feel about it or what?

ths social gospel was the Christian theme of helping the less fortunate. An example would be the Salvation Army.

The anwser to #1 is the yellow dog contracts

Dixon I think # 4 is the Gospel of wealth #2 people who work during a strike are called scabs #3 the afl was was a combination of skilled and unskilled workers. Only allowed skilled workers to join. It made strikes a legitimate weapon for the union. The Knights of labor were organized for unskilled labor. Any kind of labor accepted. It would eventually fail because they were easily replaced by other workers.

#4 is not the robin hood theory. try again matt.

1. an agreement by workers not to stike is called?
2. people who work during a strike are called?
3. describe the differences between the afl and the kol.
4. what was the social gospel?

just so everybody knows, the book Fallen Angels is in the teen section at Barnes + Nobles.

#4 is the Robin Hood theory.

The site where the US Army butchered the Ghost Dancers was at Wounded Knee.

When are you going to put up some more post, Dixon?

It looks like more questions were put up before some of the first were already answered?

sorry whitney, you are wrong. the answer is 42

since tyler didn't answer #3 im going to give a wild guess that the answer is "Dixon is the Man"

The answers for the questions:
1. Rutherford Hayes ended reconstruction.
2.Gettysburg was the turning point of the civil war.

1. what president ended reconstruction?
2. what was the turning point battle of the civil war?
3. what is the answer to life, the universe, and everything?

jim crow refers to the laws that were unfair to african americans. This included laws that prohibited attendance in public schools and the use of stuff like restaurants, theaters, hotels, etc

3) the 14th amendment guaranteed african americans full citizenship.

Dixon, the Homestead Act offered 160 acres of land free to any citizen or intended citizen who was head of the household . This was in 1862 and the land was in the west.

hey, that was pretty quick tyler. now what is matt going to answer?
ok, two more:
1.what did the homestead act do?
2. name all the generals who at one time or another were in charge of the northern army. extra bonus if you tell me something weird about each one.

here is the answer for number one: Henry David Theoru

alright, here's a quick and easy question and some more involved questions.
1. who wrote civil disobedience?
2. please explain, in detail, some of the steps that congress took trying to solve the slavery issue with regards to new territory acquired by the us.
3. what did the 14th amendment guarantee?
4. what does jim crow refer to?

Last one for tonight!

1. John C. Breckinridge (Ky.), an independent southern democrat, recieved about 20% of the electoral vote


John Bell (Tennessee), from the Constitutional Union party, recieved about 10% of the electoral vote

My percentages aren't exact because my sourses vary.

Nathan Chapman

NEXT!!!!

4. Johnson's impeachment was the first to happen in the U.S. It started with Johnson tring to fight the radicals. They ofcourse didn't like that so they passed the Tenture of Office Act which stated that the president couldn't dismiss the last presidents members of the cabinet. This meant that Johnson was stuck with Lincolns cabinet. Johnson did all he knew to do and that wastest the act's legallity, of course congress didn't like that either so they impeached him. Though he was impeached he was not removed from office because he was aquitted soon after.

MY TURN!

3. Johnson's plan was to take it easy on the south by going along with Lincoln's kind of "mercy" plan. In his plan all he wanted was 10 percent of the states population to take an oath to the union. Since Johnson was going along with Lincolns plan he pretty much wanted the same things such as preserving the union and very little talk about slavery. And as Lincoln stated, "With malice toward none, with charity for all."

The Radical Republican plan was different; they wanted to severly punish the south for everything that happened(the whole civil war). They passed the Wade-Davis bill, they wanted marial law enforced, and all of the South's former leaders banned from any political power. And since there were enough nothern congressmen to bypass the president the reconstuction of the civil war was taken over by the radicals.

C'mon Dixon give us some easy questions so I can answer some

The South seceded from the Union considering they were dumbfounded of how Lincoln won the election. He wasn't even on the ballot in the South. Since the majority of the US population was in the North, they would have enough electoral votes to beat the South. The South realizing this, decided to leave the union and become the Confederate States of America.

new format, cool?

alright, we've got a few people answering questions now. let's keep the ball rolling. jeff pointed out the democrat and republican candidates in the election of 1860, but those guys only got about 70% of the popular vote.
1. who were the other candidates and how much did they get?
2. why did the south secede after lincoln's election?
3. congress and johnson fought over who would be in charge of reconstruction. compare and contrast their two plans.
4. explain the process that led to johnson's impeachment.
small test hint: i haven't mentioned the homestead act in class but it's on the test. also, a few 13th, 14th, 15th amendment questions and a worcester v. georgia question.
