The Middle Passage

For the captive Africans aboard a slave ship, the voyage to the New World was a passage of nearly unimaginable horror. For most captives, the separation from their villages and families was still fresh, and now they were thrust into a hostile and alien world, at the mercy of people who were like none they had ever seen before. Upon boarding, they were stripped of their belongings, branded, chained, and sent below decks, where they would be forced to remain for most of the months-long journey.

How did the Battle of Bull Run change Americans expectations of the civil war?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The First Battle of Bull Run, also known as the Battle of Manassas, marked the first major land battle of the American Civil War. On July 21, 1861, Union and Confederate armies clashed near Manassas Junction, Virginia. The engagement began when about 35,000 Union troops marched from the federal capital in Washington, D.C. to strike a Confederate force of 20,000 along a small river known as Bull Run. After fighting on the defensive for most of the day, the rebels rallied and were able to break the Union right flank, sending the Federals into a chaotic retreat towards Washington. The Confederate victory gave the South a surge of confidence and shocked many in the North, who realized the war would not be won as easily as they had hoped.

Prelude to the First Battle of Bull Run (Manassas)

By July 1861, two months after Confederate troops opened fire on Fort Sumter to begin the Civil War, the northern press and public were eager for the Union Army to make an advance on Richmond ahead of the planned meeting of the Confederate Congress there on July 20. Encouraged by early victories by Union troops in western Virginia and by the war fever spreading through the North, President Abraham Lincoln ordered Brigadier General Irvin McDowell to mount an offensive that would hit quickly and decisively at the enemy and open the way to Richmond, thus bringing the war to a mercifully quick end. The offensive would begin with an attack on more than 20,000 Confederate troops under the command of General P.G.T. Beauregard camped near Manassas Junction, Virginia (25 miles from Washington, D.C.) along a little river known as Bull Run.

The State of Louisiana has a very peculiar and particular history. Unlike other states from the Union, Louisiana did not become a U.S state until 1812, when it was purchased by Americans from the Spanish crown. Up until that point, political, social, economical and cultural life depended entirely on first the French influence, then the Spanish cultural influx when the region came under control of the Spanish crown and finally, later, in 1812, did Louisiana became an American state with American system of government. Another point to learn about this state is that its educational development came hand-in-hand with the influence from the Catholic Church. They were the first institution, with the support of the Spanish crown, to establish educational institutions that were for the poor and rich alike, for men and women and also black and white. It was not until much later, a few years before the Civil War and later that segregation and conflicts between original Creole inhabitants of the state and citizens coming from other states started. Later on, as the ninteenth and 20th centuries developed, a set of legislative decisions both statewise and nationwise changed the way that the educational system was handled. It was then that public education as such started, but the problem was that segregation also came with it and a setback for equal education regardless of sex, religion or race. 1. The changes in legislative laws affected the educational system because it created divisions and an awareness of the reasons for these divisions, which had not been present before. 2. These legislative decisions however allowed for the increase in number of educational organization and institutions which were controlled by the state and gave more access to the poorer citizens of the state. It increased access to education but at the same time, in reality, it ensured this mostly for white people. 3. It is important to revive cultural traits in Louisiana because its history and cultural traits are very unique in the United States and it is what makes this state so different. THeir historical and cultural background enriches American history and culture. 4. Nowadays there are several attempts to bring back cultural revival in the state of Louisiana that attempt not only to teach citizens the roots from which the state arises but also ingrain a sense of belonging.
