History

anygoal [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The two farming groups that helped push reform and helped to form the Populist Party were the Farmer's Alliance and the Grange.

Explanation:

The Populist Party was formed from a movement that emerged in the 1870s, especially among the peasants of the western and southern states, which was characterized by demands for social radical legislation against the trusts and for the benefit of the smaller farmers, and that was represented by the Farmer’s Alliance and the Grange.  It demanded the free coinage of silver, 8 hours workday, progressive income tax, land reform, and the nationalization of railways, telegraphs and telephone lines.

At the 1892 presidential election, the party gathered over one million votes and got 22 presidential electors. It co-operated in the 1896 and 1900 presidential elections with the Democrats with William Jennings Bryan as joint candidate.

Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Du Bois: Who had the right strategy for black American?
GREYUIT [131]

Booker T Washington wanted African American citizens to move up in society to prove themselves worthy to have the same rights as everyone. As demeaning as this already is, it was a good strategy, but it would take a while. web Dubois wanted African American citizens to actively fight discrimination. He wanted them to stand up for their rights immediatly. This tactic worked so overall, Web DuBois had the better strategy as his tactics were used to create rights for African Americans in the United States. We see this in the civil rights movements in the 1900s where black Americans such as MLK put their voice out to share their concern about discrimination. in conclusion, Web DuBois had the better strategy.

1.How did the Radical Republicans' aim for Reconstruction differ from President Johnson's? What two new laws passed by Congress
quester [9]
1. 
A) Radical republicans wanted to punish the south much more severely and basically humiliate them in various ways. Johnson was different because he enabled the south to recover through some controversial means during the reconstruction period since he didn't want to put a lot of pressure on them and wanted them to prosper.

B) The first law that they got from the congress was the law that extended the life of the freedman's bureau which was an important organization for the emancipation of African American citizens at the time. The second law was the civil rights act of 1866 which was the first document that made people of all races equal.

2. Johnson had a lot of problems with the congress because they were always on different sides when it came to important legislation. An example of this was for example the 14th amendment that was passed by the congress and was disliked by Johnson, as well as the military reconstruction act which was passed even after Johnson vetoed it.

3.
A) Johnson fired his secretary of war which caused the congress to impeach him. This was because it was considered that he was just being corrupt and wanted to have all power to himself and it was also debated whether it was legal at all to fire someone from such an office if you are the president of the country.

B) The impeachment was unsuccessful because Johnson was acquitted of all charges, 11 of them. The senators who voted against impeachment later never served in an elected office again, but they got the support of the people anyway and there were also senators who voted to impeach him who later changed their mind

4. They had huge farms and plantations which were unsustainable because they now had to pay huge amounts to other people who provided seeds or to workers, who didn't get a lot of money at all but still it was problematic for sustaining such big farms, and they started indebting themselves more and more until they went bankrupt.

Would you ever consider going on a strike to defend your rights, even if it meant losing your job? Explain your reasoning.​
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Well thank goodness i'm bored and have nothing to do:

Explanation:

Going on strike to defend my rights I believe is more important than my job. I would not only be fighting for the rights of myself, but the rights of others who might be facing the same discrimination in the workplace. If the job does not want me and my beliefs I can find somewhere else to work.

Hope this is what you were looking for.
