The Slave Trade is the industry that grew with slavery in the United States.
In the 1890s, Cuba wanted to get their freedom from Spain. People like Jose Marti petitioned Americans to side with the Cubans and the poor treatment they were receiving from Spain. Also, there was a lot of support in the newspapers called "yellow journalism" where American people were sympathizing with the cause to go against Spain in war. This especially was true with a man nicknamed "The Butcher", Valeriano Weyler, who was a military leader from Spain placed in Cuba to put people in concentration camps.
As a result, America felt a strong sense of patriotism and business reasons to go to war with Spain. After the <em>USS Maine</em> exploded, the United States declared war on Spain.
A similar situation happened in the Philippines, where Spain had a high influence and America did want to free the Philippines from Spain, but then also had their own agenda to take over the Philippines, as it was in a strategic location in the Pacific for trade.
Garrison is referring to the Liberator
Explanation:
William Lloyd Garrison said ,I'll be quite as harsh as reality and as intransigent as justice. I do not want to think, talk or write moderately on this topic.
No! no! Tell a man which house is still on fire and give him a mild warning; tell him to save his wife reasonably from the hand of the ravener; ask the mother to slowly extract her child from the fire into that he fell.
I'm in earnest—-I'm not going to make a mistake—-I'm not going to excuse—-I'm not going to withdraw a single inch—and I'm going to be here.
The complacency of the citizens is enough to spring from each statue and hasten the dead to rise.
Teen: I wouldn't want the martial law back, because first off; that means we are undergoing a war on the U.S. soil, and second off, that means the President (being Trump) can over ride the other branches of the government, making him our "ruler" of sorts, and can form laws that could be normally harmful towards the economy and citizens of the U.S.
