I hope this isn't a short answer question ^^
Your a colony in the new world, more than likely you have a few hundred people in your society shortly after arrival in the new world. first you would send your men to go chop down trees for the village because you need to used that wood for housing, fences/walls, and firewood to make food and keep warm in the winter months.
Eduction wasn't a huge concern and sometimes wasn't deemed necessary by the colony to teach, especially to the boys that would work along with the other men.
Hunting parties would be sent out for meat and farms would have to be grown and maintained during the spring and summer months. starvation and sickness where huge threats in the new world colonies, especially because they're weren't many doctors around at this time and all the diseases where new to the people who arrived there and most died from them.
Things like tea and grain would be bought from the British if available.
I really hope this helped, if you have any more questions about it just comment on this answer.
The Kansas Nebraska Act repealed the Missouri Compromise (of 1820).
The white Americans didn't want the slaves to learn how to read and write because if they did the slaves would've read the bible and knew that it was about them.
They would've known that Africa was the motherland and that they were the first people on earth and that they were worth more than the white Americans told them. The white Americans wanted to control the slaves and keep them in fear of them that's why they beat them every time they caught a slave trying to read it. Even when the slave pastors would try to have church the white Americans would tell them what to preach and if they didn't do as they said the white Americans would beat them or even kill them.
Poverty and poor relief, especially in times of acute food shortages, were major challenges facing Virginia and Confederate authorities during the American Civil War (1861–1865). At first, most Confederates were confident that hunger would not be a problem for their nation.
