Reconstruction

0


Johnson's Reconstruction Plan:

Andrew Johnson took office in Aril 1865 and congress was in recess until December. During the eight months Johnson made a plan of reconstruction that was much similar to the on of Abraham Lincoln. His plan was known as the Presidential reconstruction, it included certain laws:

It pardoned southerners who swore allegiance to the Union.

It permitted each state to hold a constitutional convention (without Lincoln's 10 percent allegiance requirement.)

States were required to void secession, abolish slavery, and repudiate the Confederate debt.

States could then hold elections and rejoin Union

The presidential Reconstruction reflected the spirit of Lincoln's Ten Precent Plan was more generous to the south.

Amendment 14 &15

Southern defiance of reconstruction enraged northern Republican in Congress who blamed President Johnson for southern Democrat's return to power. They were determined to bypass Johnson and put and end to his reconstruction plan, congress used one of it's greatest tools: the power to amend the Constitution. Congress overrode the president's veto. Then it took further action. Concerned that courts might strike down the Civil Right's act congress decided to build equal rights into the Constitution. In June 1866, Congress passed out the fourteenth amendment. It Stated that:

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

Afterwards across the south, meanwhile, freedmen were beginning to demand the rights of citizenship: to vote, to hold public office, to serve on juries, and to testify in court. In a letter to the Tennessee constitutional in convention, Nashville freedmen eloquently presented the case for black voting rights. They had the fifteenth amendment, which states:

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.”

Radical Reconstruction

The congressional republican who had drafted the fourteenth amendment consisted of two groups. One group was radical Republicans.


Radical weren’t much in number but they were increasing in influence, but most republicans though thought of themselves as moderates. A moderate is someone who supports the mainstream views of the party, not the more extreme position of it.

The moderates and Radicals opposed Johnson’s Reconstruction policies, opposed the spread of the black code, and favored the expansion of the Republican Party in the south. Moderate were less excited over the Radicals’ goals and giving the African American their civil rights. The Radical inequality was still common in the North, and moderates did not to impose stricter laws on the south that those in the North.

Carpetbagger & Scalawags

During radical reconstruction, the Republican Party was a mixture of people who had little in common but a desire to prosper in the postwar south. This bloc of voters included freedmen and two other groups.

Northern Republicans who moved to postwar became known as carpetbaggers. The southerners gave them this insulting nickname; it referred to a cheap suitcase made from carpet scraps. The Name implied that these southerners stuffed their clothes into a carpetbag and rushed into a profit from southern misery.

In the postwar south, to be white and southerner and a Republican was to be seen as traitors. Southerners had another name form the unflattering name for white southern Republicans as well; Scalawag, originally a word in Scottish which meant scrawny cattle. Some of the scalawags were Whigs who had opposed succession.


Reconstruction in Action

1

The war has just ended and it is time for the civilians to reconstruct their nation, but the war has left much misery behind it. It had destroyed much of the transportation and accumulated a total of 9,000 miles of railroad. It had devoured farm lands and farm building and machinery. Animals that were used in the farm and much of the livestock, bridges and canals all were gone. the value of the southern farm properties had declined of 70 precent.

The civil war has just destroyed many lives. Men, husbands and brothers all died leaving behind their family; their wives and their children. The north has suffered a loss of over 364,000 people and more than 38,000 African American while the south lost 260,000 soldiers and only one fifth of them were white men. The people who have participated to the war are scarred for eternity but we are trying to reconstruct our nation.

After the civil war the African Americans in the south were now free. Over 4 million freed slaves are starting their new life in a poor region with slow economic activities. As slaves they have received inadequate food and shelter but now after a lifetime of forced labor and unreasoned suffering many are homeless, famished and jobless. Some of them though have chosen to continue on working on the plantation of their previous masters, others sought jobs on the West and the cities and on the North as well.

With out our president, Abraham Lincoln who was savagely assassinated we the nation of the United states are having a little of difficulty reconstructing our country and though with our previous Vice President and now President of the Untied States, Andrew Johnson who now all the hopes and future of reconstruction are in his hand.

Andrew Johnson was born in North Carolina. After Lincoln's death it was for the Vice president to take in charge of the nation and of the politics of it.

Before the start of his presidential state Johnson had already pursuit a plan for our nation's construction. It was much similar to the one done by our respected president Lincoln's plan in 1863.

This plan proposed a whole new start of the nation. It offered pardon to southerners who swore allegiance to the Union and the state could then hold elections and rejoin the Union.

The plan for the reconstruction of our nation now is to gather the southerners and the northerners in to one same political unit. The plan to reconstruct our nation is to join the Union.


The Effects of War

0

The war has many effects on the people or nation could negative and positive. In the civil war of 1861 -1865 the war was negative and positive at the same time. It was negative because lots of people died in the massacre and they were from the same nation. It was positive in making this new nation a stronger and more united than it ever has. The effects of war are also different for people. There are people that gain something from the war and that makes them happy. Military industries for example, the war is something good for them because they sell their products (weapons, guns...) to the army. It is a build up of economy. For other people it is only the ruin of their lives.


Ken Burnʼs Civil War

1
The movie of Ken Burn's traced the course of the U.S. civil war in 1861 -1865. It was from the abolitionist to the death of the greatest president the United States has ever had, Abraham Lincoln. It also had a bit of the beginning reconstructions. The episode we've watched in class examines the major causes of the American civil war and the leading people on both sides.
Slavery is looked at and it was part of the cause of war but not the actual cause. The abolitionist John Brown's attack on a southern armory at Harper's Ferry speeded things up?
The main cause of the war was the key issue of the states rights and whether or not they could vote to leave the American Union. The first major battle at Manassas was a mortifying defeat for the much stronger Northerners.

Northern advantages V.S. Southern advantages

0

North Advantages


In several aspects the north was better prepared for an eventual war if occurred. The north had more railroad mileage than the south; more then twice. (N=21,700 miles, S=9,000 miles.) Movement of food, supplies and troops were faster and more effective because of this. There were also more then five times more factories in the north then there was in the south, (N= 110,100; S=20,600) so the union was better able to produce the guns, ammunition and other things needed for the war. The economy was balanced in the north between farming and industry. The North was also much more wealthier than the South.

The Northerners had already their own functioning government with an army and a navy. The population in the north was twice as big than in the south (N=21,5 million; S= 9 million) which abled more people to participate in the war but also enough to stay back and work on the growth of their economy.


South Advantages


The South Confederates though had some advantages too. Most of the nation's military colleges were in the south, and a majority of the trained officers of the nation were southerners and they sided with the confederacy. The southerners also didn't need to initiate in the war to win it, all they needed is to maintain a well built defense. The morale of the southerners was also an advantage because most of them were eager to fight considering the war a struggle for their way of life.

The Coming of Civil War

Compromise of 1850


During the Gold Rush in California there were lots of people immigrating to the new state acquired from Mexico. In 1850 the many pat immigrated there adjured that California should be acknowledged to the United States as a free state but this change would disturb the balance between the free states and slave states in the Senate. Henry Clay proposed a plan, five separate laws which two of them favored the North and two others the South.


Kansas-Nebraska Act


In 1854 the senator Stephen Douglas introduced the Kansas-Nabraska Act. It called for the creation of two territories which were eventually the ones sited. It also said that the people that lived in these territories have the right to vote if slavery would be allowed there or not. Kansas and Nebraska were in the boundaries of the Missouri Compromise and for this to work Douglas called to repeal the Missouri Compromise. Southerners were happy because they knew that they had a chance that the two territories could vote for slave state and the Northern democrat were angered and tried to repel the act.


Presidential Election 1860

In the 1860 the government knew that the Northerners would not accept leadership by a Southerner and a Southerner would not listen to an antislavery leader from the north.The democratic party met in 1860 to nominate the probable candidates for presidency. The party broke into two because of the different opinions of the North and the South sates relating to slavery. Delegates from the southern states left the convention and nominated John C. Breckinridge while the northern delegates nominated Stephen Douglas who supported popular sovereignty.

Some moderate Southerners met as well to form their own party. the belonged to the Whig and other American parties. These southerners with some politicians from the Border States formed the Constitutional Union Party. When the Republican party united they nominated Abraham Lincoln.


Casablanca Stock Exchange stepping up to finance the Moroccan economy

0

Morocco weathering the global financial meltdown, the Casablanca stalk exchange is stepping up to financing the Moroccan economy. In the next years, Africa's third largest bourse is going to double it's companies and quadruple the investors' number.

The CSE head said that the goal of Moroccan economy was have 75 new companies by the end of 2015. It also was said that the bourse eyed 500 companies for listing. This corresponds to the government's drive to modernize the financial market and establish Morocco to be a financial hub for Africa.

Now, there are only 77 companies listed on the CSE. Market depth presents a challenge because of only 20 companies trading daily. Small and medium sized companies 95% of the economy are underrepresented on the stock market. Despite Morocco's strong ties to francophone Africa, no foreign companies are listed.


When Compromise Works or Not

0

Compromise won't work if a girl goes in vacation with her boyfriend. The parents won't let her go with her boyfriend because they will think of a sexual relationship. The parents are allowed to stop their daughter from going with her boyfriend and it could be non - negotiable. But this is of course just for the majority of people.

In political situation like the constitution, there is no compromise in following the rules. The constitution regards everyone and and there is no negotiating money for example to get away from a police if you were riding to fast.

The Origins of American Politics

0

1.Hamilton, as secretary of the treasury under George Washington was a keen supporter of strong national power. He didn't have much faith on people. In his view the government should take and a major role in directing the developments and achievements of America's economy. Hamilton convinced the southern states through a deal; if southern states would back Hamilton's debt plan he promised northern support for locating the nation's capital in the south.
However Hamilton had an opposition, secretary of the state Jefferson was not ready to follow Hamilton's plans. Jefferson favored strict construction or interpretation of the constitution. That is that the government should use the implied power of the constitution only if necessary. Hamilton preferred a loose constitution. Jefferson had also more faith on the people than the government and to him hamilton was betraying the ideals of the american revolution.

2.A political party is a group of people who seek to win elections and hold public office in order to control government policy and programs.

3.Despite his role during the america revolution and being vice president for eight years, John Adams lacked the prestige of George Washington. As President, Adams faced the difficult task of trying to govern a young country in which party differences were growing wider and wider.
He also faced the threat of war with france but in an effort to avoid the war Adams sent officials to Paris to negotiate with the revolutionary government.

4.During the elections of Jefferson there was lots of tension between federalists and jeffersonian republicans in 1790s. During the election of 1800 many people believed that the future of the nation was stake. Would the nation tilt towards what Jefferson called the spirit of 1776 and the ides of liberty in the declaration of Independence? The election was nasty. Jeffersonian newspapers accused Adams of being a monarchist. And federalists asserted that Jefferson was a godless man.

How the colonists were able to defeat the greatest world power of their time?

0
After the French and indian war in 1763 the Britain's weren't happy because they accused the colonists to not have participated on the war as much as they needed to have. At the same time the colonists were shocked that the British had so much trouble with the war realizing they're weakness and they thought maybe being a separate country that wouldn't be ruled by the British government.

Colonists at that time gained military confidence and experience and saw need to colonial unity to overcome problems. The border were safer because there were no more French or Indians because they'd been defeated. That meant for the colonists that they would be less dependent on the British armed troops.

Because the British believed that the colonists didn't help enough they wanted them to pay for the war costs. They needed to use only British ships for imports and exports and they needed to export specific materials to britain as sugar, tobacco, indigo and fur. They also were only allowed to import only from britain or pay duty and foreign goods. They had to pay unjustified taxes the Stamp act, one had to purchase stamps to put on printed materials like wills, newspapers, etc. Britain also put new taxes on import of paper, grass, paint, and tea which was a very important tradition to the colonists.

The colonists also had restriction. In 1763 King george III declared that colonists could no longer settle west of Applaties mountains, and the law required colonists to provide british soldiers food and living quarters when requested. It meant that if a soldier in war came to your house you should be his host and give him a place to live and things to eat for as much time as he stays.

The colonists reaction took place in 1765. They had a stamp act congress, delegated from 9 colonies met in New York to create plans to stand up against the stamp act. The british parliament reduced taxes of tea afterward but the colonists still had to pay taxes. In response to that they had a Boston tea party where colonial merchants who had smuggled tea from Holland to avoid tea taxes now could not compete. But still the British government had the control and had specific rules that the colonies qualified as Intolerable acts.

In 1774 They had the first continental congress to present unified colonial resistance to intolerable Acts, delegates from 12 colonies met in Philadelphia. Agreed to expend boycott of British goods and some colonists began forming and training militias and storing military supplies.

Afterwards they gained their independence.





Human Rights

1

Natural Rights:

The right, freedom and privileges that are a simple part of the human nature and they cannot be taken away. They are different from the rights that the law gives people(set of principles which govern human interaction). According to the Declaration of Independence, these are rights that include 'life, liberty, and the pursuit to happiness' which are the same as in the Second Treatise of Government which was written by John Locke. It talked about the social contract which was then taken away by Jean-Jacque Rousseau.


Social Contract:

An agreement among the members of an organized society or between the governed and government defining and limiting the rights and duties of each. It could also be and agreement between individuals to cooperate for greater security, which results in the loss of some personal liberties. Jean-Jacque Rousseau wrote The Social Contract in 1743 where he strongly supported freedom and religion.


Right to Revolution:

It is a right or duty, that is stated many times throughout history, possessed by subject of a state that justifies their action to overthrow the government to whom the subjects otherwise would owe allegiance. John Locke was also the founder of this idea and he expressed in what he wrote. He was with the right to rebel and he proposed a branched government which every branch is ruled by the houses of parliaments to have specific rights.


Popular Sovereignty:

A pre-civil war that asserts the right of the people living in a newly organized territory to decide by vote of their territorial legislature whether or not slavery would be accepted in the society. It was after The Social Contract of Jean-Jacque Rousseau that the people thought about it. The written part was strong enough to help them create a new society where everyone was equal(almost everyone because the africans and native americans weren't treated that way).


Right of Self Determination:

A free choice of one's own acts without external compulsion; and also the freedom of the people in a specific territory to determine the political status. It is the right of the people of a nation to decide in how and by whom they want to be governed without the influence of any country. Thomas Paine's wrote about this in the Common Sense and the American Crisis. He freely and radically wrote about how he thought of the King George at that time.


Ranking from most important:

  1. The Natural Rights
  2. Right of Self Determination
  3. Social Rights
  4. Right to Revolution
  5. Popular Sovereignty The ranking is based on which one for me is the most important. I chose the natural right to be the most important because it is the life, freedom and privileges of someone and they cannot be taken away. The right of self determination is also important because lets you decide who do you want to not really rule you but guide you and how do you want to be guided. Social rights is to interact with others it helps the community be united. It is the right to rebel if the government is not correct and it is also important because is is your freedom. The last one is the popular sovereignty because people didn't really respect that and there was still inequalities between them. Any way everything is important it's just that some are more than others.

Learning

Where and from whom do you learn?


      Life is all about learning and in every situation you could learn something. I learn on a daily bases how to manage my life. 

     I learn at school about education and other as math, history, science and other things. I also learn in other places like with my family. If you did a mistake with your family and you parents tell you to not do it again you learn what is right or wrong.

     When you look at things you learn as well. For example when you look at someone changing a baby you actually learn by it. You learn by every action that occurs in front of your eyes. 

     You could learn by watching t.v or other things. It is all about writing.


Migration

0

What are the different reasons why moroccans migrate away from morocco? Using ESPRAT+G what are possible different groups and what ate their reasons? Who is migrating to Morocco? Why?


       Migration in this world is very diverse and it gets diverse the more people want to work or studies. There are different groups of people in every place and all migrate for a reason. In Morocco people migrate in or out of the country because of different reasons. It's related to their social class class or cultural reasons or economical reason or others. People in Morocco migrate to other places because of religion or sociology or the art and tourism.

       People migrate to Morocco for different reasons. One of them is economical reasons. People like christians, muslims or other cultural unity migrate to morocco for work. It's also because it's cheaper then France or other countries. Old people that are retired migrate to morocco because they could buy stuff and live their life in a less tight budget. 

       Moroccans migrate away from morocco because of other reasons. One of them is of course economy. Low class people try to go to other countries near by like Spain to work there. They work with a low budget and other people accept them because of that. Other people of higher and middle class migrate for sociology. People go to universities and live in other places. These are people that have the money to go to other countries to explore. 

      Morocco is also a good place for import and export. People come and found their organization that work on import and export. This is the case because of the geography of morocco. Morocco is a main import export country because it is located on the atlantic ocean so it could have trades between it and the united states but also the north of it is in the Mediterranean so they had trades with europe nations. 

     People migrate to and away from Morocco because of diverse reasons. Socially, geography and economy are some reasons but religion is also one. Morocco is becoming more and more of a visited country. People like it because it's cheap and it has an interesting religious country and on. It's a touristic place.

     In this podcast we talk about torture and illegal detention in Uganda and how you might be putting cash in the pocket of an African dictator when you buy gas.
     Human rights have found that the Ugandan authority illegally detain and torture rebels and terrorists. They are tortured in a torture center run by the government antiterrorism task force.
     Last July a Ugandan judge has ordered ordered the task force to bring in his court five people who'd been held in the torture center called Communicado for months of detention but the task force didn't produce the five people to the court and it brought them to a commission. 
    A woman had called on corruption on Nigeria and Angola that are top oil producers. Equatorial Guinea is also one of the main producers to the USA it is the third major oil producer in the world. Nearly half a million people live there. After having the country back from the spain colonies Francisco Sangama took over. He was  a brutal dictator that was called or rather insisted on being called the unique miracle. When his family was in exile his nephew took over and has been president sense that time.   
    Under his rule the equatorial Guinea has no free press, no independent judiciary, and no independent society, and arbitrary detention, torture, and rife are present.
    When the Equatorial Guinea discovered oil it's economy enhanced but people say that the government of the country doesn't spend enough money on it's people. The president and his family however are well living while other people live in poverty.

Why Study History?

1
-
History is the study of the past. It is important because of the information it gives us about how people lived in ancient times.

The first main point about history is that it offers us loads of information about how people and society behaved, how a community depended on each other. History keeps on renovating itself and help us understand what life is. For example, how can we know about two countries that had war when they're in peace now and how would we know about technology, science, mathematics and other desiplines if not with history. Wothout history our knowledge would go back to the start and people want move on and improve themseves in these desiplines. They won't go forward and they'll only stay in one place, a hiatus.

The study of human also depends on these historical sources. If you want to know the behavior of humans you use theses sources. History helps us understand how our society was created and how we have a place in it.

This information helps explain history in our own lives. It helps provide identity as well as contributes to your understanding, helps citizenship and it is useful to the world of work. Evidence shows that the history is renewing itself. It occurs again and again because people do the same mistakes that they're ancestors did long ago. It will still happen in the future because people will still make the same mistakes they're ancestors did and it will continue on like this for milleniums, but if we know our history we could avoid it.

War and battles all are human mistakes and they are things that happened in the past and are present in the present and will probably still be in the past. What if we could avoid that. Knowing about yiour history will help us surpass all these mistakes and help us improve as a community. It will help us through life.


Everyone was victim of history. I was victim of history and everyone like me is. When I go to school I do exactly what people did a llong time ago. School is a creation made by people in the past and we still use it for our education. When I have my history class or other classes I am affected by history becaus everything we study started a long time ago and we just discover more about it.

History is in our daily life.

About 1,000 people were save from the drowning of a ferry ship in the southern Philippine on September 6, 2009. In time of this disaster nine people were registered dead and a passenger has been missing and was found eight miles away from the location of the accident after thirty hours in the sea.
The sea authority are still not sure what caused the ferry to sink. Passengers that have arrived to Manila sadi that they didn't hear any explosion and the weather is not appears to not be a possible factor.
The Philippines with it's 7,100 islands register lots of sinking boats because of it's sea disasters like typhoons and tropical storms but also because of poorly maintained ships.
