The cotton gin was innovated by Eli Whitney and is important to the 1800d because of what it did to the innovation of cotton production in the south. Prior to the machine, enslaved people were forced to hand process cotton, now with the machine, more cotton was able to be processed faster which allowed for slavery to continue and expand in the south so that more cotton could be sold to Britian (who did not have the land for cotton growing) and the northern factories to be made into clothes (increasing production of the industrial revolution especially with the Lowell mills). This will be important later with the Civil War as the south believes that Britian will support them because of their trading history and need for cotton (which of course is not done, due to racial tensions between the newly freed persons of Britian and the enslaved system of the South).

Explanation:
Samuel Gomper is one the key figures in American labor rights movements from the 19th century. His work began during a recession, where thousands of people in his city were unemployed and protesting.
He believed that each unemployed person was actually a consumer and if the Industrialists only kept on laying off people or not paying them well, it will eventually hit the pockets of the rich and degrade the economy further.
While he was a staunch anti-socialist, he did believe that proper labor representation would help in improving the lives of workers. As such, he worked to build the largest labor union in the world and was successful in improving wages and working conditions.
