Abolitionists
The abolitionist movement was an organized effort to end the practice of slavery in the United States. The first leaders of the campaign, which took place from about 1830 to 1870, mimicked some of the same tactics British abolitionists had used to end slavery in Great Britain in the 1830s
<span>The "Cult of Domesticity" was a prevailing idea (chiefly among the upper and middle classes) that a woman's "true" nature was to be domestic and therefore, be the chief caretaker of the home and that which came with it. To that end, it was made more likely with the advent of the Market Revolution and the saturation of ideas and inventions to enable a woman to "better" keep her home and family. Given the class-based nature, it is a logical conclusion because of the inherent wealth of those strata of society.</span>
The booming economy led in 1929 to a backlog of business inventories which was three times larger than the year before. As a result a recession began in August 1929, two months before the stock market crash. During this two month period, production declined at an annual rate of
20 percent. This decline resulted in the stock market crash which began October 24, followed by Black Tuesday on October 29. Losses for the month amounted to $16 billion, an astronomical sum in those days.
1932 and 1933 were the worst years of the Great Depression. Industrial stocks lost 80 percent of their value since 1930. 10,000 banks failed , or 40 percent of the 1929 total. GNP fell 31 percent since 1929 and over 13 million Americans lost their jobs between 1929 and 1932. In 1933 unemployment did rise to 24.9 percent.
The desperation of many people and especially veterans from WW I resulted in spectacular events, the most dramatic the so-called Bonus marches in 1932.
