History

Vitek1552 [10]3 years ago
7 0

The founders of the Southern Colonies came to America seeking wealth in the form of land ownership. The coastal plains and the rolling hills were perfect for raising crops. The rich soil and the warm weather helped the crops thrive.

Each plantation required a lot of workers. Plantation owners could not find enough workers among the European immigrants and the Native Americans were not interested in working on the  plantations either.

The plantation owners found the solution on a Dutch slave ship. They purchased their first slaves in Jamestown in 1619. First African Americans were known as  indentured servants rather than slaves. They were forced to work on the  plantations. Many more Africans followed in their footsteps and the plantation system started to develop with a great speed.

What were John Reed’s impressions of the Bolsheviks?
guapka [62]

Answer:

"John (“Jack”) Reed wasn’t looking backward to the French Revolution or even the Paris Commune when he chronicled the seizure of power of the Russian Revolution of 1917. As a 30-year-old independent radical journalist, he was looking at it with fresh eyes. What he saw was not just the overthrow of a repressive monarchist oligarchy and its attendant bourgeois class, but a vast democratic, majoritarian movement based on “soviets,” or councils, made up of workers, soldiers, and peasants. Although he had been embedded in Pancho Villa’s rebel army in Mexico and covered Industrial Workers of the World strikes in New Jersey and miners’ struggles in Colorado, it was witnessing the cataclysmic events in Russia that confirmed him as a revolutionary."-Ten Days That Shook the World by John Reed
