The NAACP movement was started during 1909 in New York City as an attempt by both white and black activists to generate changes in the laws and ways of acting of the American society towards African Americans and especially, to stop segregation. During the 1920´s and 1930´s, the NAACP started a magazine called Crisis and also launched a campaign to generate awareness especially in white people about the equality of races. It was also a focus of the movement, during this decade, to start a lobbying effort to revert several laws passed especially by the southern states to forbid voting rights and also segregate the white and black races and they began to seek to increase the membership base of the movement. Finally, during this time, the NAACP managed to publicize and grow awareness in people about the evils of the Jim Crow laws that allowed discrimination, negated housing rights and segregated people and permitted public lynching of black people.  Because of what was explained before, the correct choice would be choice C

Andrew Jackson Writing Piece
klio [65]
After examining Jackson’s accomplishments compared to his shortcomings and controversies, it can be difficult to be unbiased when deciding if he should or should not be replaced on the bill. Many historians and scholars are in disagreement with each other on the topic. Some believe he should be featured on the back of the bill and not the front George Washington, the first president of the United States, appears on the $1 bill and was also a slaveholder like Jackson. Around 300 slaves lived at Mount Vernon when George Washington died. He also supported legislation upholding slavery and also opposed other legislation on slavery. He signed the fugitive slave act guaranteed a right for a slaveholder to recover an escaped slave. He also signed the Northwest Ordinance that recognized the Northwest territory and outlawed slavery within the territory. He never publicly denounced slavery as an institution, and there is no discussion of removing him from the $1 bill.

When taking a closer look at the behaviors of both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, we can see that they share similarities with Jackson. If removing Andrew Jackson from the $20 bill is considered then so should removing Washington and Jefferson. However, Jackson is far too controversial, especially in recent years. He would be in the right spot if he was moved to the back of the bill, and someone like Harriet Tubman replaced him in the front. His accomplishments earn him his place on the bill, but his controversial actions lessen what he has earned which is why he should appear on the back. Especially compared to President Abraham Lincoln, who is featured on the $5 bill, Jackson should be featured on the back of the bill. Lincoln who had some of the greatest presidential accomplishments, like the passing of the 13th Amendment and the Emancipation Proclamation
