Answer:

During the Battle of Gettysburg, Longstreet pleaded to separate from the enemy line after the first day of battle, in order to effect a strategic flank movement that would position them in the communications line of the Union army, forcing them to attack. Longstreet later said that Lee had agreed before the campaign that this "offensive strategy, defensive tactics" would be a good course of action. Subsequently, however, Lee decided on offensive tactics, fearing perhaps that a move like the one proposed by Longstreet could result in a great loss of morale among the troops. On July 2, the second day of the battle, Longstreet's assault on the federal left was almost successful, but at great cost. On July 3, when Lee ordered Longstreet, against his wishes, to attack the Union center in what is known as "Pickett's charge", the Confederates lost 7,000 men in one hour. Lee blamed himself for the defeat at Gettysburg, but some, like General Jubal Early, insisted that Longstreet's reluctance to follow Lee's plans with enthusiasm was the cause of the defeat.

Think why women and native Americans should have been allowed to vote for Burgess why or why not
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Many government officials felt that Native Americans should be assimilated into America's mainstream culture before they became enfranchised. The Dawes Act of 1887 was passed to help spur assimilation. It provided for the dissolution of Native American tribes as legal entities and the distribution of tribal lands among individual members (capped at 160 acres per head of family, 80 acres per adult single person) with remaining lands declared "surplus" and offered to non-Indian homesteaders. Among other things, it established Indian schools where Native American children were instructed in not only reading and writing, but also the social and domestic customs of white America.

The Dawes Act had a disastrous effect on many tribes, destroying traditional culture and society as well as causing the loss of as much as two-thirds of tribal land. The failure of the Dawes Act led to change in U.S. policy toward Native Americans. The drive to assimilate gave way to a more hands-off policy of allowing Native Americans the choice of either enfranchisement or self-government.
