The Haymarket incident, Haymarket massacre or Haymarket revolt was a historical event that took place in Haymarket Square (Chicago, United States) on May 4, 1886 and that was the high point of a series of protests that from the 1st of May had occurred in support of the striking workers, to claim the 8-hour workday. During a peaceful demonstration an unknown person threw a bomb at the police trying to dissolve the act violently. This led to a trial, years later described as illegitimate and deliberately malicious, towards eight anarcho-communist and anarcho-communist workers, where five of them were sentenced to death (one of them committed suicide before being executed) and three were detained. They were called Martyrs of Chicago by the workers movement.

On June 21, 1886, the case against 31 officials began, and the number was reduced to eight. Although the trial was at all times a farce and was held without respecting any procedural rule, the yellow press held the guilt of all the accused and the need to hang foreigners. Although nothing could be proved against him, the eight of Chicago were found guilty, accused of being enemies of society and the established order. Three of them were sentenced to prison and five to the gallows.

Therefore we can say that the trial and sentencing had as its primary objective, to finish or disarm the nascent labor movement.

Answer:

Four of the Anarchists accused of engaging in the Hay-market riot in Chicago on May 4, 1884, in which seven policemen were killed, were hanged in that town's jail on November 11. The four were Parsons, Engel, Spies, and Fischer.

It may be implied their execution was indeed a strategy on the part of the government to break the momentum being generated by the activities of the Labor Movement.

As tens of thousands poured into the streets on May 1, the Chicago Mail ominously said of high profile radicals Albert Parsons and August Spies, "Mark them for today. Keep them accountable for any trouble that arises.

The demonstrations were only a support of the <em>eight-hour day</em>.

Cheers!

What events led to the attack at Pearl Harbor?
lutik1710 [3]
Ok, so that there is a bunch of stuff. There is evidence that President Roosevelt knew there would be an attack on Pearl harbor, but he decided to let it happen so that the US would be in on the war (we were not before the attack).
There's not a straight forward answer, but I hoped this helped!

How was the great war for empire grounded in earlier economic developments
Alex73 [517]

The Great War of Empire was also known as the Seven Years War or the French Indian War. In New England, for example, people connected water power and recognized sawmills and grain mills. Excellent harbours promoted trade and the sea became a source of great wealth. In the Southern colonies due to the print and transportation revolution, the way of travelling was consistent and economical. The population significantly decreased due killings that rose as a result of the battles.

One

Both the other two choices were determined by the economic structure of the south. Society was determined by money and so therefore were politics.

Two

The second one is pretty gray. They were interconnected. If I answered economic for the first blank, I pretty much have to do the same for the second. If the economy changed, so did the political and social functions. The social functions only look like they were the most challenging change that was taking place, but that was only because the economy could no longer support labor needs.

Three

Well you were uprooting their way of life. Anytime you do that to people, they are going to resist you. I'm not saying it's right. I'm merely saying that's what happens.

Sometime when you have the time watch Gone With the Wind. It is a classic  movie having to do with this part of your question. Gerald, Scarlet's father, tries to show her that their wealth remained in tact by showing her the bonds he had bought to preserve their money. She looks at him in horror as she realizes those bonds are worthless. The society she knew has been been blown away. They are penniless and she knows it.

Four

This is an important question. Every American should know the answer.

XII is the emancipation Proclamation. You can't vote if you are not free.

XIV Gave male members the right to vote if they are citizens and 21 or more years old (See Section 2). The explanation of this Amendment is probably the longest of any amendment.

XV Color has nothing to do with who can vote.

My favorite is number 19 -- long overdue in every country.

XIX women were given the right to vote. It is probably the shortest amendment's explanations.
