This penultimate unit delves into the role of interest groups in American political life. America has, as Tocqueville noted, long been a nation of joiners. We have a long history of joining together for common purposes, and thus it no surprise that organized groups prevail throughout the political system. As the unit shows, however, interest groups are not easily categorized. There is a wide variety of interests represented in the political system and they use an equally wide array of tactics and strategies. Part of this unit demonstrates the vibrancy of strategies and tactics employed by groups attempting to influence public policy.
In 1933 the general unemployment rate in the United States was over 25 percent; and at the same time, unemployment rates for various American minorities ranged up to 50 percent or more. It existed a huge racial discrimination in almost every facet of daily life in America through the 1920s, it was hard for many minorities to distinguish much difference between the Great Depression and "normal" economic times. Nonetheless, for these groups the Great Depression was worse than "normal" economic hardships they had suffered. Something to highlight is that during this time it was really difficult to live, even for the white Americans and for the minorities was worse.

There were no real weapons actually used for the cold as there were no real engagements between the USA and USSR. It was generally fought through proxies wars (we give money and weapons to two factions in a country and have them fight it through).
If you consider threats and spies as weapon, then i would say those were the real weapons of the cold war. However, the Cold war was more of a mexican standoff in which both sides had the capability of annihilating all human civilization.
