Some American conservatives appear to revel in discussing what the world might be like if the United States didn’t exist—a sentiment today indulged by Dinesh D’Souza’s new film “America.” Nevertheless, while Americans are justifiably proud of their past, and of their contributions to the world, independence for England’s North American colonies was bound to happen sooner or later. And the nation that emerged was likely to draw heavily upon its colonial master’s classically liberal political and legal traditions, though possibly expressed differently if the country emerged later with other leaders. Still, this world-without-America speculation can be both thought-provoking and entertaining. In that spirit, as Americans celebrate July 4, they might also consider an independence day that didn’t happen and how different America and the world might be if it had.
If the American Civil War had ended other than it did—or if the federal government and the northern states decided to pursue a negotiated separation from the south—residents of the Confederate States of America (CSA) might still be celebrating their Independence Day over one hundred and fifty years later, perhaps on December 24 (the day in 1860 when South Carolina declared its independence) or on February 9 (when, in 1861, the thirteen southern states formed the CSA). It is, of course, impossible to know what the USA, the CSA, and the world would look like after this alternate history—there are too many variables over too much time. But it is an interesting thought experiment nonetheless.
Answer:
<h2>d. the anti-smoking movement</h2>
Explanation:
- The temperance movement was aimed at reducing the consumption of alcoholic beverages. Ultimately that 19th century reform movement culminated in the Prohibition period in the early 20th century, from 1919 to 1933, when the 18th Amendment was in effect.
- The abolitionist movement was aimed at ending slavery. Ultimately slavery did come to an end in the United States after the Civil War in the mid-19th century.
- The women's suffrage movement aimed at getting voting rights and other political rights for women. The 19th Amendment, ultimately ratified in 1920, was the result of a long struggle by women to have their rights recognized.
- The anti-smoking movement, also known as tobacco control, started in the United States in the 20th century, not the 19th century. In 1964, a report of the Advisory Committee to the Surgeon General gave evidence that cigarette smoking was a cause of lung cancer, and therefore actions were needed to regulate and curtail tobacco use.
It outlawed the discriminatory voting practices adopted in many southern states after the Civil War, including literacy tests as a prerequisite to voting. This “act to enforce the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution” was signed into law 95 years after the amendment was ratified.
