Most of this has to do with what is known "King Cotton" or the "Cotton Kingdom". Cotton was an extremely valuable product; it helped the North's manufacturing, it helped increase the North's capital from shipping the cotton to Europe, and it is estimated that 1/5 of jobs in Britain at the time were dependent on cotton. Back in the South, the invention of the cotton gin helped increase cotton output astronomically. Cotton picking and cleaning is an extremely timely and laboring process, and the need for cotton was still high, so slavery was the obvious answer. Slaves were also growing in population due to their own reproduction rate, perhaps the only time in history this has occurred. All of this had heavily tied slavery to the Southern economy on the eve of the Civil War.

"Don’t let someone else define the boundaries of your civic imagination." Explain and react to this statement.
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Through the diverse cases represented in this collection, we model the different functions that the civic imagination performs. For the moment, we define civic imagination as the capacity to imagine alternatives to current cultural, social, political, or economic conditions; one cannot change the world without imagining what a better world might look like.

Beyond that, the civic imagination requires and is realized through the ability to imagine the process of change, to see one’s self as a civic agent capable of making change, to feel solidarity with others whose perspectives and experiences are different than one’s own, to join a larger collective with shared interests, and to bring imaginative dimensions to  real world spaces and places.

Research on the civic imagination explores the political consequences of cultural representations and the cultural roots of political participation. This definition consolidates ideas from various accounts of the public imagination, the political imagination, the radical imagination, the pragmatic imagination, creative insurgency or public fantasy.

In some cases, the civic imagination is grounded in beliefs about how the system actually works, but we have a more expansive understanding stressing the capacity to imagine alternatives, even if those alternatives tap the fantastic. Too often, focusing on contemporary problems makes it impossible to see beyond immediate constraints.

This tunnel vision perpetuates the status quo, and innovative voices —especially those from the margins — are shot down before they can be heard.

It had a very tiny influence on my education. I was going to school 2 years later in Canada. To lessen the pressure, our student council president invited some of the black students to come to school there. They wrote an indignant reply back telling him, "Thank you, but you missed the point of why we are here. and why we will stay here."
