The Intolerable Acts were five laws that were passed by the British Parliament against the American Colonies in 1774. 

How did they get their name? 

They were given the name "Intolerable Acts" by American Patriots who felt they simply could not "tolerate" such unfair laws. 

Why did Britain impose these new acts? 

The British passed these acts as punishment for the Boston Tea Party. 



The British thought the acts would help to maintain control in America, but they had the opposite effect causing many people to firmly join the side of the rebels.

Read the following statements, and identify the demographic factors that likely are important to each speaker in
Triss [41]

The demographic factors which are likely to affect each speaker's opinion are as follows:

1. <u>Region</u> = The Texas Rancher who does not want illegal immigrants crossing his land is affected by his region because Texas is a border state.

2. <u>Race/Ethnicity</u> = The Latina mother in LA, who wants Bilingual education for the school children, is interested in ensuring that her children do not lose out from her racial culture.

3. <u>Religion and Family</u> = The Catholic man, who proposes tax breaks for church schools, is religious, perhaps with a sizable family like many Catholic families.

4. <u>Marital Status/Family/Gender</u> = The gay man in NYC who wants the <em>right to adopt children</em> is concerned that he could not exercise the right to have children because of his gender. He is interested in having a family of his own, despite his marital status not being defended by law.

5. <u>Race/Ethnicity</u> = The African American woman in Georgia who wants more minorities to be employed addresses racial discrimination in the workplace.

Thus, each speaker has their different concerns in forming an opinion on the <em>issues of family, religion, gender, marital status, race/ethnicity, and immigration.</em>

The Gilded Age was a time in American history that received its name due to the huge fortunes it created for different citizens. During this era, robber barons became an integral part of society. Robber barons were individuals who became rich/dominant in a particular industry through business deals. Some examples of robber barons include John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, and JP Morgan.

John D. Rockefeller represented the Gilded Age well during this time. His monopoly on the oil industry allowed him to be considered one of the richest people in American history. At one point, Rockefeller controlled roughly 90% of the oil consumed in the United States. This allowed Rockefeller to live a lavish lifestyle.

For the first one The institution of slavery contradicted the foundation of the American society because till this day people of color are still being treated horrendously due to their ancestors and their teachings to the newer generation. Also it contradicted it because Americans had their amendments but it didn’t apply to slaves .
