Respond to the following based on your reading. As you should have read in the lesson materials, the reality of cowboy life was

different from the image portrayed in popular culture. In popular culture, the cowboy is mostly depicted as a solitary, strapping white male who happens to be good with a gun and will resort to violence when needed. The reality was that cowboys worked in groups, weren’t all white (or big), and weren’t required to have gun skills to work the job. If this is the case, why did/does popular culture portray cowboys the way they’re shown? Please provide two to three possible answers.

The gun play can make for more entertaining stories.

Maybe the writers of stories are trying to match the potential audience (white Americans).

Portraying a lone person makes the character seem more heroic—it fits into the American ideal of rugged individualism.

(this is not my answer i just got this from someone else)

Who were the committee of correspondence? how were they seen as a shadow government?
Andreas93 [3]
The committees of correspondence were shadow governments organized by the Patriot leaders of the Thirteen Colonies on the eve of the American Revolution. They coordinated responses to England and shared their plans; by 1773 they had emerged as shadow governments, superseding the colonial legislature and royal officials. The Maryland Committee of Correspondence was instrumental in setting up the First Continental Congress, which met in Philadelphia. These served an important role in the Revolution, by disseminating the colonial interpretation of British actions between the colonies and to foreign governments. The committees of correspondence rallied opposition on common causes and established plans for collective action, and so the group of committees was the beginning of what later became a formal political union among the colonies.

The political party favored by nativists was called the American party, but many people called it the___________________________
UNO [17]

Answer:

The Know-Nothing Party

Explanation:

The American Party favored by the <u>nativist</u>s was also called by people as "The Know-Nothing Party." It started as a <em>secret society </em>in the <em>1850s</em> and propelled as<u> a movement against the Catholics (especially in the North) and immigration.</u>

People who belong to the group (especially the Protestants) were fearful that the Catholic priests would take control of the voters. So, when members were asked about their party's information (since little was known about them), they would reply "I Know Nothing."

This party didn't last that long because the leaders were deemed incapable and they also had varying opinions about issues on slavery.
