After the end of the Civil war, a great movement of people took place in the United States. This phenomenon was known as The Great Migration, and it involved the movement of black people from the southern states to the north of the country.

There were two main reasons for this migration. The first one was the fact that, although slavery had been abolished, black Americans continued to suffer racism and discrimination in the South. Many laws were passed in order to minimize their legal gains, and many people were openly hostile to the idea of inequality. Migrants hoped that the North would be more accepting of them. The second reason is the fact that Black Americans hoped to find more opportunities for work in the more industrialized and developed northern region.

lakkis [162]

William Lloyd Garrison was a strong voice of Abolitionism, he published his opinions on “The Liberator” that was a publication that reached thousands of individuals around the world. Because of his strong position against slavery, some slaveholders demanded the end of the paper and even offered a 5 thousand dollars for Garrison’s capture.

This phrase reflects the period of time he was living because he was fighting against slavery. Garrison even founded the New England Anti-Slavery Society after he wrote those words.

Why did the early egyptians settle in the Nile River Valley? (At least 2 Sentences)
stira [4]
<span>The first settlements in the Nile Valley began around 7,000 years ago. Hunters and gatherers moved to the Nile Valley from less fertile areas in Africa and southwest Asia. As in other parts of the world, these settlements gradually developed into more and more complex societies. Most Egyptians lived near the Nile as it provided water, food, transportation and excellent, fertile soil for growing food. Ancient Egypt could not have existed without the river Nile. Since rainfall is almost non-existent in Egypt, the floods provided the only source of moisture to sustain crops.
I hope this helps.
