The correct answer is A) The AFL focused on organizing skilled workers.

The Knights of Labor was a labor federation founded in 1869, they demanded better work laws such as eight-hour day, ethic. It was never well organized and declined shortly after. At the start, they used secrecy similar to Masons. With their decline, the American Federation of Labor was created and they lost many members to the AFL.

The American Federation of Labor came to life with the decline of Knights of Labor. The AFL was a federation of labor unions, it was founded in 1886. It was more organized than the Knights of Labor. By the 1890s the AFL started to only admit skilled workers in craft unions and became mostly an organization of white men.

13) One of the most important factors that lead to rapid industrialization was the post-Civil War because this left the American South in shambles. This required rebuilding and put many Americans to work in factories. The second one was the increase of demands since the United States was increasing and expanding to the west more and more, railroads were needed to be built. Another reason why people were moving westward was because the population was increasing in the east. This was another reason why demands in goods was greater.

14) I believe the biggest conflict between the white settlers and tribal groups was that many of the American Indians were being forced to abide by American culture, such as religion, customs and tradition. They also disputed between the land in which belonged to the natives of the lands while American settlers were moving westward. Like what happened during "The Trail of Tears" this killed many Natives during the march. Andrew Jackson was clearing the land from Indians.

15) Damon's teacher would might say that he would have to describe why his contributions were mostly positive, and what were some of the things that a little more negative.

I would have also stated what the United States used to be like before Carnegie developed the steel industry.

What action by Andrew Johnson most angered the Radical Republicans in Congress?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

His veto of the Civil Rights Act of 1866

Explanation:

The Radical Republicans in Congress were angered by Johnson's actions. They refused to allow Southern representatives and senators to take their seats in Congress. In 1866, the Congress passed the Civil Rights Bill, which granted African Americans equal protection under the law with whites. The Congress also renewed the Freedmen's Bureau in 1866. President Johnson vetoed both of these bills, but the Congress overturned both vetoes. Following the congressional elections of 1866, the Republican Party controlled more than two-thirds of the seats in both houses of Congress. As a result of the Republican election victory, the Congress now dictated how the reconstruction of the Union would proceed.

The first action the Republican majority took was to enact the First Reconstruction Act, in spite of Johnson's veto
