The last statement is correct.
When the Great Depression hit, Herbert Hoover was president. As an advocate of laissez faire economics, he felt that having the government interfere with the economy would have negative results. Hoover does create a few public works projects (like the Hoover Dam) in order to decrease unemployment but these programs are short lived. Overall, Hoover is remembered negatively by the American public, as he did not do enough to help America during this time.
This is why when he ran for re-election he lost to Franklin D. Roosevelt. Once in office, FDR implemented the "New Deal." This economic program was based around creating government agencies that would help decrease unemployment and improve American society in general. Along with this, FDR set up market regulations (like the Securities and Exchange Commission) to ensure that there is never another crash in wall street like the one in 1929.
They were African Americans who spoke and wrote in favor of abolition. hope this helps :)
Conclusions of archeologists were based on artifacts found over a large area. Exact dates cannot always be determined, and scientists don't always agree on the data provided by the evidence. New discoveries may contradict theories that have already been accepted.
Cactus Hill site has human remains that have been dated to about 20,000 years ago. Due to its location in Virginia proves that human beings had arrived in America earlier than this. That data contradicts the theory that claims that humans reached America from Siberia through the modern day Bring Strait.
The Cactus Hill Archaeological Site is located on a wind-deposited terrace of the Nottoway River in Sussex County.
<span>C. House Un-American Activities Committee--this committee was created for the full purpose of investigating possible spies or threats to American security.
This group targeted Hollywood actors/actresses for their liberal slant in the media. Intellectuals were also targeted as a source of communist ideology. Eventually small accusations turned into "witch-hunt" practices by the federal government. </span>
