The Knights of labor was the largest and one of the most important American labor organizations of the 1880s. It was founded on the 28th day of December in year 1869 by Uriah Stephens. They promoted the producers ethic of republicanism and demanded the eight-hour day, rejected socialism and anarchism and encouraged the social and cultural uplift of the workingman. In 1880, the organization reached 28,000 members and even gained more members to 100,000 in 1884.  But in 1893, the knights of labor declines its membership because of public pressure, power vested in reformist factions, and employers' unwillingness to arbitrate.

With this, he managed to notice that insted of the popular belief that the Sun, Moon, and the other planets are moving around the Earth, that it is actually the opposite of it, and that the Sun was the center of our Solar System, and that all the planets and moons were orbiting around it, while the only object that hold its position as it was initially thought was the Moon, because it orbits around our planet.

Why did racism help strengthen the acceptance of slavery?
grigory [225]

Answer:

Racism leads to the belief that one race is better or of "higher-standard" than another. The race that is "master" would then, obviously, be able to subject other races, including making them slaves (people who work for them without pay). Because of racism, they believe that lower-class races would need to be obligated to serve higher-class races, or Aryans.
