In the early 1930s, as the nation slid toward the depths of depression, the future of organized labor seemed bleak. In 1933, the number of labor union members was around 3 million, compared to 5 million a decade before. Most union members in 1933 belonged to skilled craft unions, most of which were affiliated with the American Federation of Labor (AFL).
The union movement had failed in the previous 50 years to organize the much larger number of laborers in such mass production industries as steel, textiles, mining, and automobiles. These, rather than the skilled crafts, were to be the major growth industries of the first half of the 20th century.
Although the future of labor unions looked grim in 1933, their fortunes would soon change. The tremendous gains labor unions experienced in the 1930s resulted, in part, from the pro-union stance of the Roosevelt administration and from legislation enacted by Congress during the early New Deal. The National Industrial Recovery Act (1933) provided for collective bargaining. The 1935 National Labor Relations Act (also known as the Wagner Act) required businesses to bargain in good faith with any union supported by the majority of their employees. Meanwhile, the Congress of Industrial Organizations split from the AFL and became much more aggressive in organizing unskilled workers who had not been represented before. Strikes of various kinds became important organizing tools of the CIO.
A thesis statement that would not be acceptable is <u>B. The </u><u>Chesapeake </u><u>and </u><u>New England colonies </u><u>developed into</u><u> two distinct societies </u><u>based on their </u><u>geography</u><u>, </u><u>reasons </u><u>for </u><u>founding</u><u>, </u><u>economic </u><u>characteristics, and </u><u>relationships </u><u>with </u><u>American Indians.</u>
You did not include the prompt in the question but the above should be the best answer.
The New England Colonies and the Chesapeake colonies were different in that:
- New England colonies were founded to escape religious persecution while the Chesapeake colonies were founded to make profit
- New England colonies engaged in shipping, food production and lumbering whereas the Chesapeake colonies focused on tobacco.
Even though they were different in the above regard, their treatment of Native Americans was the same as they both started off with peaceful relations with the Natives which eventually deteriorated into war.
We can therefore conclude that even though they differed in several ways, they did not differ in Native treatment which would make option B wrong.

I am for the 7th Amendment because I believe it helps make sure a trial is unbiased. Lawyers from both sides are able to reject and accept people on the Jury to balance out the trial so potentially all of the jurors are unbiased. It also helps filter out less important court cases because a jury give both side more than one opinion on the matter that is on trial.
