Imagine you are a reporter covering the Birmingham Campaign in 1963. What details would you include in your news
story? What information do you think is most critical for the public to have?
In 150-200 words, write a brief eye-witness report over what you see and why it is significant.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The details I would include in my news of the Birmingham Campaign in 1963 would be the following.

I would cover closely the decisions and actions of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) during the movement its members organized in the early months of 1963. I would follow closely the motives they had to organize their demonstrations against segregation in Birmingham, Alabama, one of the toughest places in the South for African Americans.

I think this would be the most critical information for the public to have because by understanding the motives of the protests, the American people could better understand what really was behind the civil rights leaders' minds.

I would go beyond the news and tried to interview the leader of the Civil Rights movement, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. On the same topic, I would try to do the same with the major of Birmingham, so readers could have both sides of the story.

Based on the first short video, what did ‘progress’ look like during the Gilded Age?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The Panic of 1893 lasted four years and left lower and even middle-class Americans fed up with political corruption and social inequality. Their frustration gave rise to the Progressive Movement which took hold when President Theodore Roosevelt took office in 1901.

Although Roosevelt supported corporate America, he also felt there should be federal controls in place to keep excessive corporate greed in check and prevent individuals from making obscene amounts of money off the backs of immigrants and the lower class.

Helped by the muckrackers and the White House, the Progressive Era ushered in many reforms that helped shift away power from robber barons, such as:

trust busting

labor reform

women’s suffrage

birth control

formation of trade unions

increased conservation efforts

food and medicine regulations

tax reform

civil rights

election reform

fair labor standards

By 1916, America’s cities were cleaner and healthier, factories safer, governments less corrupt and many people had better housing, working hours and wages. Fewer monopolies meant more people could pursue the American Dream and start their own businesses.

When America entered World War I in 1917, the Progressive Era and any remnants of the Gilded Age effectively ended as the country’s focus shifted to the realities of war. Most robber barons and their families, however, remained wealthy for generations.

Even so, many bequeathed much of their wealth, land and homes to charity and historical societies. And progressives continued their mission to close the gap between the wealthy and poor and champion the needy and disenfranchised.

What is the cartoonist suggesting about J.D Rockefellers Standard Oil Company?​

Answers

Answer:

it's the fact that he has complete control over the U.S government

Explanation:

as you can see in the picture the company's "arms" are grabbing and destroying everything to show who has power and to never question them again or more punishments are to come.

The Cartoon can be view as symbols representing
1. A political cartoon representing various political expressions
2. What or who does the octopus represent
3. How did the wealthy industrial feel about taking advantage of workers and consumers
4. How did American’s feel about trust and big

The above can be summarized as follows

The cartoon “The Standard Oil Octopus”, and other similar ones that were seen with the rise of Rockefeller’s Standard Oil Trust, accurately represents the differing viewpoints of the wealthy “captains of industry” and those of average working class Americans during the Second Industrial Revolution. This new class of wealthy industrialists truly believed in the all-American image of opportunity for the common man and social Darwinism, that is, survival of the fittest. The only reason that they could fully clear their moral conscience for taking advantage of workers and consumers to make profit was by convincing themselves that they had the ultimate right to engage in such practices.

Clearly, Americans who were not lucky enough to part of such an elite class were severely dissatisfied by the industrialists’ use of their corporate power. The octopus’ head is representative of the central trust of the Standard Oil Company, composed of a board of trustees headed by Rockefeller. The tentacles represent the way that the trust controlled every aspect of every branch of the Standard Oil Company, across the entire nation. Cartoons such as these led to the widespread distrust of industrialist methods, as the tentacles surrounding the governmental buildings indicate Rockefeller’s use of bribery to influence Congressmen and other officials to prevent the passing of anti-trust and anti-monopoly laws.

Once such cartoonists revealed to Americans this ultimate corruption in the governmental system, the ruthlessness of industrialists such as Rockefeller became painfully clear and they became an enemy of the public, constantly portrayed in a negative light, causing Americans to have mistrust in corporate systems as a whole. Regardless of how Rockefeller justified and rationalized his methods, his reasoning would not be heard by American workers and consumers, who saw only the unjust consequences of his trusts.

Hope this helps!

What is the strongest point made by the World Systems Theory? (What does the theory explains well?)

Answers

Answer:

World-systems analysis is a mode of analysis that aims to transcend the structures of knowledge inherited from the 19th century, especially the definition of capitalism, the divisions within the social sciences, and those between the social sciences and history

Explanation:

"World-system" refers to the inter-regional and transnational division of labor, which divides the world into core countries, semi-periphery countries, and the periphery countries. Core countries focus on higher skill, capital-intensive production, and the rest of the world focuses on low-skill, labor-intensive production and extraction of raw materials. This constantly reinforces the dominance of the core countries. Nonetheless, the system has dynamic characteristics, in part as a result of revolutions in transport technology, and individual states can gain or lose their core (semi-periphery, periphery) status over time. This structure is unified by the division of labour. It is a world-economy rooted in a capitalist economy. For a time, certain countries become the world hegemon; during the last few centuries, as the world-system has extended geographically and intensified economically, this status has passed from the Netherlands, to the United Kingdom and (most recently) to the United States.

World-systems theory has been examined by many political theorists and sociologists to explain the reasons for the rise and fall of states, income inequality, social unrest, and imperialism.

The property taxes on a house that Alan owns and rents out have increased. To balance his monthly budget, he decides to increase his tenants’ rent by $10 per month. He will use the extra money to pay his property tax. In this scenario, what type of tax do his tenants pay?

Answers

Answer: Indirect Tax

Explanation:

Indirect tax is a term that describes a scenario where the tax imposed on an entity is passed onto another entity which means that the second entity is being indirectly taxed by the taxing authority.

Value Added Taxes are an example of this because they are charged on retailers and suppliers who simply pass it on to consumers. This is a similar scenario because Alan is passing on the taxes placed on him to his tenants.

Is it constitutional to have an impeachment trial after a President has left office?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is Yes.

Explanation:

Here is why! The impeachment vote for Former President, Donald J Trump, infact happened while the 45th president was in office. NOW! This means that the house is obliged to give it to the senate. While the Senate was not in session, and at the time Senate Majority leader McConnell, said he would not bring the senate back sooner, which means that the house couldn't send the articles. This means, that the House had the right to do it, when they could, and if Republicans felt the couldn't do that, they would have taken it to the Supreme Court.
