Predict how the economic changes during the roaring twenties could possible lead to an economic disaster

History

The Roaring Twenties was a great golden age in America, but ironically, led to its greatest downfall.

Lots of new things became popular among all Americans in the 20's; automobiles, radio, silent movies, etc. People were spending money left and right on these things, and were becoming very materialized. So why am I talking about Americans buying boatloads of stuff they didn't need? Well, this was one of the prime causes of the Great Depression. Americans started buying on margin, or buying with credit; buy now, pay later. People bought so much like this, that they had to borrow lots of money from the banks. As this went on, it built up slowly, and led into buying stocks on margin. This eventually led to the Stock Market Crash of 1929. As people ran to the banks to withdraw all their money, the banks failed, and people lost all their savings in the blink of an eye. Manufacturers soon started producing less and laying off workers as jobs became a demand, and ended up causing the intense unemployment rates throughout the country. And finally, farmers suffered as a massive drought hit the Mississippi Valley in 1930, which created the infamous Dust Bowl.

Explain how Ethnocentrism played a part in the slavery in the US and the colonization of Africa.
Pavel [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

For four hundred years, Africans were snatched from their homes and deported into the Americas where they were put to work in mines and plantations. Their sweat and blood served as a bedstone to the tremendous wealth still enjoyed in Europe and the Americas. The discovery of the New World boosted the European economy and marked the starting point of what one can call the “African nightmare.” The exploitation of the new land required millions of skilled laborers capable of standing the tropical climate which encompasses the vast region from the US South down to Brazil. The enslavement of Indians rapidly proved to be inefficient because the native population was hard to control and it was profoundly affected by the diseases brought from the Old world. The solution to the need of labor was the forced transportation to the colonies of poverty-stricken people, euphemistically called “indentured servants” or “engagés” in French. Europeans could not obviously count on their own “proletarians” who did not have the suited skills especially when tropical agriculture was concerned. The final solution came from Africa where Europeans discovered a potential slave market at the time of their arrival in the middle of the fifteenth century.
