Answer: THE UNITED NATIONS
The conference of delegates from 39 nations was held at Dumberton Oaks, a historic estate in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, DC. Thus the conference is often referred to as the "Dumberton Oaks Conference." The official name of the gathering, which took place from August 21 to October 7, 1944, was the Washington Conversations on International Peace and Security Organization.
The ultimate result of this conference was the establishment of The United Nations. The UN Charter, signed in 1945, lists the purposes of the organization in Chapter I, Article 1, as follows:
<em>The Purposes of the United Nations are:</em>
- <em>To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;</em>
- <em>To develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace;</em>
- <em>To achieve international co-operation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitarian character, and in promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion; and</em>
- <em>To be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations in the attainment of these common ends. </em>
<span>Ida B Wells used a strategy we would today called "data journalism" in her anti-lynching campaign. She traveled through the south keeping records of all the lynchings that occured and the reasons for them. She then put this together in her book "A Red Record: Tabulated Statistics and Alleged Causes of Lynchings In the United States" establishing several arguments of how lynchings were used to control African Americans.</span>
There were several different reasons for English settlement including:
1) Economic opportunities- North America provided individuals who were poor in England an opportunity to escape poverty. Along with this, in North America there was no rigid social structure. In England at this time, if you were born a peasant you would stay a peasant for your entire life.
2) Religious freedom- Individuals who broke away from the Anglican Church (Church of England) could escape to North America in order to practice their own religion.
3) Pursuit of gold/natural resources- North America was known for having gold and other valuable resources that English citizens desired.
Ultimately, these goals changed over time. This is especially true when the Europeans began growing cash crops like tobacco in the Southern colonies (like Virginia).
