ful in achieving this goal? Why or why not?
History

GREYUIT [131]2 years ago
7 0

Joseph Touma is one of the founders of the organization <em>Bridge the Divide</em>. This organization attempts to foster discussions between young Republicans and young Democrats. The founders believe that the political environment of the United States is too divided, and that by fostering these discussions, they might be able to help diminish such divisions. He argues that they want a "trickle-up effect," which means that they hope that such a change will first happen among citizens and individuals, and that the movement will eventually reach politicians at higher levels.

I believe that <em>Bridge the Divide</em> will be successful in achieving this goal. I think that most politicians act in a way that they believe is desired by their constituents. If politicians encourage division between political parties, it is often because citizens also have this polarized view. If citizens demand more moderation and dialogue, then politicians would most likely act in this way in order to gain more votes.

Document 4a - Historian Eric Foner was interviewed for a documentary special entitled "Africans in America". Below is an excerpt
nordsb [41]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Document 4a - Historian Eric Foner was interviewed for a documentary special entitled "Africans in America". Below is an excerpt of this interview.

Q: What is the relationship between slavery and westward expansion?

A: … The westward expansion carried slavery down into the Southwest, into Mississippi, Alabama, crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana. Finally, by the 1840’s, it was pouring into Texas…. Now in the Southwest, West, and South, slave owners insisted that slavery was absolutely essential to that story of progress. Without slavery, you could not have civilization, they said. Slavery freed the upper class from the need to do manual labor, freed them from actually settling and creating civilization, freed them from working on the land, to worry about economic day-to-day realities…. and therefore gave them the time and the intellectual ability to devote themselves to the arts and literature and mechanical advantages and inventions of all kinds. So that it was slavery itself which made the progress of civilization possible.…Therefore, in order to settle the Southwest and Western territories, slavery would be a necessary institution.  

4a. According to Eric Foner, suggest ONE reason Southern slave owners supported the expansion of slavery into the west.

Answer:

One reason for the expansion of slavery to the west was to promote the colonization of that land and therefore to promote civilization.

Explanation:

According to Erick Foner's response, slavery allowed whites to create American civilization, according to their own thoughts. This is because, according to the scruocratic thought, if slaves took care of heavy work, whites would promote art, science and literature, which are the factors they believed were the shapers of civilization. thus, by supporting the expansion of slavery to the west, the colonizers believed that they were taking civilization to these lands.
