Answer:
Although their lives were circumscribed by numerous discriminatory laws even in the colonial period, freed African Americans, especially in the North, were active participants in American society. Black men enlisted as soldiers and fought in the American Revolution and the War of 1812. Some owned land, homes, businesses, and paid taxes. In some Northern cities, for brief periods of time, black property owners voted. A very small number of free blacks owned slaves. The slaves that most free blacks purchased were relatives whom they later manumitted. A few free blacks also owned slave-holding plantations in Louisiana, Virginia, and South Carolina.
Free African American Christians founded their own churches which became the hub of the economic, social, and intellectual lives of blacks in many areas of the fledgling nation. Blacks were also outspoken in print. Freedom's Journal, the first black-owned newspaper, appeared in 1827. This paper and other early writings by blacks fueled the attack against slavery and racist conceptions about the intellectual inferiority of African Americans.
African Americans also engaged in achieving freedom for others, which was a complex and dangerous undertaking. Enslaved blacks and their white sympathizers planned secret flight strategies and escape routes for runaways to make their way to freedom. Although it was neither subterranean nor a mechanized means of travel, this network of routes and hiding places was known as the “underground railroad.” Some free blacks were active “conductors” on the underground railroad while others simply harbored runaways in their homes. Free people of color like Richard Allen, Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, David Walker, and Prince Hall earned national reputations for themselves by writing, speaking, organizing, and agitating on behalf of their enslaved compatriots.
Explanation:
President Franklin D. Roosevelt, once elected president, feels that the Great Depression should be faced by increasing government intervention in the economy. This is evident from his "New Deal" policies. The New Deal was FDR's plan to help the American economy recover from the Great Depression.
This New Deal included the creation of several different federal agencies (also known as the alphabet soup agencies). Some of the most famous agencies created include:
a) Securities and Exchange Commission- helps to regulate the stock market and investigate fraud/insider trading.
b) Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation- this ensures that individuals will not lose their life savings in the case of another economic depression.
c) Social Security Act- this law helps to give direct financial assistance to elderly citizens and mothers with children who are dependents.
All three of these structures still exist in today's society.
