Day 2 Bellringer

• Can anyone claim this letter I found – typed so as not to show the handwriting…I think it’s hilarious

• I'm not sure how to start this letter, but I feel we need to talk. I've been thinking about us a lot lately. Things used to be so great. It was like we were made for each other. I mean, everyone said it was perfect. I really thought we would be together forever. But then things changed. I feel like you started taking me for granted. You just started to do whatever you wanted and never asked me about anything or how I felt. I've been thinking about this for a while, and I don't want to hurt you, but I think it's time we broke up. I mean, it's not going to work. I need some time by myself to see what it is like on my own. I'm sorry things didn't work out but I do think you are the one to blame. I'm sorry, but 'us' is over.

Populism/The Grange• Farmers were hurting in the late 1800s– Too many crops meant prices dropped

• Grange movement organized them (like a union), they got states to regulate businesses that affected public interest in the state

• Populist Party – late 1800s, represented the “common man;” women played a role as well; – Silver coins --direct election of senate– Term limits --secret ballot– Graduated tax --work days=8 hrs

Notes for my special classes• Populist Goals were accomplished– We now have direct election of senators,

graduated income tax, term limits, secret ballot• Third Parties today – “independent” “Green

Party” “Libertarian” – don’t necessarily win elections, but do get attention

• Socialism – government takes ownership of basic industries, no private property

• Muckrakers – exposed problems in daily life, tried to get information to enact change

• Social reformers – people that enacted change, these were not famous/wealthy, but they helped people and persuaded gov’t

• African American Involvement – didn’t have true equality. Ida Wells focused on lynching. WEB Dubois and Booker T Washington both wanted education for equality, differed on what that looked like

Jarrett 113 - ew• Now, read the Jarrett sections and

SUMMARIZE each one:– Socialism– Muckrakers– African Americans involvement– Social reformers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5PxA5iLDh8

Update on African Americans• Slavery = done, lynching = illegal, not followed• Jobs/Rights – much less than whites• Segregation – LEGAL – Plessy v Ferguson

legally upheld “separate but equal”• Most still lived in the south on farms, they

didn’t move north for a few more decades

WEB vs BTW

• DuBois– Liberal Arts– Focus on

law/speech/writing– Equality comes

through “fighting”– Had to EARN equality

• Washington• Jobs• Job training• Equality will be

given when we get money

Find the Laws

• Find and write five laws for each:– Federal Gov’t– Texas Gov’t– DeSoto

• Each needs to be unique to that level (so don’t say “murder” for city of DeSoto)

City and State Reform

• Secret Ballots • Initiative – voters introduce laws• Referendum – vote on specific laws• Recall – voters remove officials• Direct Primaries – voters choose candidates• Direct election of senate – instead of governor

choosing

P115

• For the three questions at the bottom of the page, answer each with one paragraph.

• This will be checked for a grade.

Day 18 Bellringer• Do you want to stop women’s suffrage, and

why?

Women

• REALLY old school thinking – they were less, paid less, allowed less freedom, etc

• Not able to vote in most places• Some states allowed it• Pushed for amendment to vote• Government didn’t care, told them to be

quiet, go through states, etc

OPTIC

• Overview – what is the whole thing in a quick glance

• Parts – people, words, etc• Title – the title may shift your view• Inference – look for connections between parts• Conclusion – come up with your conclusion

cartoons• Overview – woman zipping a

dress, struggling• Parts – dress says “national

suffrage” and purse says ratification

• Title – “Last few buttons are the hardest

• Inference – the dress (suffrage) is almost zipped – this must be near total suffrage, but they are the hardest, meaning the last part is the toughest

• Conclusion – She is clinging to the hope of ratification

• With a person you are sitting next to, come up with a list of artists/writers during the Gilded Age, include one piece of their work.

Day 19 Bellringer

• What is one thing you learned about history this MP?
