The Homestead Act (1862) granted land for former African slaves in Western U.S.
Also, they were not "African Americans". They were freed, but many were not Americans yet. They were Africans :)
Hope this helped.
Truman's loyalty plan was to ferret out Communist in every place in American Society, It included the media, government, and business. In the long run it was seen as the red scare. There was a Communist everywhere, and they where no tAmerican. lol I just learned that yesterday.
This is a bit tricky, but in general, it is climate change that is the source of the greatest disagreement among American politicians, because some people still think it doesn't exist.
English sailers were on a mission to find new land to live on. They were tired of England’s monarchy because during those times to be wealthy or participate in government you had to be born into it (monarchy/aristocrats). English men thought of a new idea named Democracy and it needed a society to be tested in. These Englishmen (Christopher Columbus) fell upon North America believing they “discovered it” even though there were already Natives living there. He colonized America because it was a huge piece of land bigger than England and in my opinion he was simply jealous and wanted white people to have the America land. So Christopher got all his white counterparts to colonize America.....
