Poster

The Dawes Act of 1887 (also known as the General Allotment Act or the Dawes Severalty Act of 1887),[1][2] authorized the President of the United States to survey Native American tribal land and divide it into allotments for individual Native Americans. Those who accepted allotments and lived separately from the tribe would be granted United States citizenship. The Dawes Act was amended in 1891, in 1898 by the Curtis Act, and again in 1906 by the Burke Act.

Use the quotation and your knowledge of social studies to answer the following question.
NeTakaya

The correct answer is to seek an education in order to better themselves and be able to compete with whites and have the intellectual and educational resources to challenge and eliminate segregation and any other racial barriers to their advancement. Indeed, Washington was an educator of great erudition and held several college degrees. He understood that during his time, political agitation in the form of protests and/or ideological confrontation would not be able to bring justice and equality to African Americans.

Since he had been born into slavery, he was aware that the vast majority of African Americans lacked a proper education and were mostly illiterate, which greatly disadvantaged them when trying to assert their rights. He concluded that it was necessary to favor the emergence of an elite of African American middle class leaders who would lead the Civil Rights movement. He was also very astute, as he presented a compromising public persona to Southern white supremacists and secretly funded legal challenges to segregationist laws and regulations.

How did South Carolina prosper from the use of enslaved West Africans prior<br> knowledge?
Oliga [24]
As West African slaves came to new places in the Americans, so did their knowledge. They taught many Americans things they did in Africa, such as farming techniques, old tales and myths, and many more. As people exchanged knowledge the traditions started to grow. A significant crop in South Carolina is rice!
