Assignment 3A Video Questions: American History: Road to Revolution 1. Leading to the Revolution: What were the Coercive Acts and why were they passed? The British Parliament passed the laws known as the Coercive Acts to force the colonists to give into the king’s power. Called the Intolerable Acts by the American colonists, they closed Boston’s port, reduced the power of town meetings, and increased the authority of British royal officials. 2. Increased Taxation and Tension: What was the Stamp Act and why was it repealed? The Stamp Act required that every piece of paper sold in the colonies, from pamphlets to playing cards, ave a revenue stamp. A year of complaints, boycotts, and protests by the colonists forced the British to repeal the Stamp Act.repeal the Stamp Act.repeal the Stamp Act. American His repeal the Stamp Act. 3. A Massacre in Boston: Who do you think started the conflict known as the Boston Massacre? Answers will vary. 4. The Colonies Go to War: Describe the difference between Patriots and Loyalists. Patriots were American colonists who wanted complete independence from Britain. Loyalists were American colonists who supported the British government, and they saw the Patriots as traitors. 5. American Victory: What contributed to the American victory in the Revolutionary War? George Washington’s skilled leadership helped secure victory for the colonists. The French helped, too, by signing a treaty and offering soldiers and other help to the colonists. The patriotic spirit and commitment of the soldiers motivated the Colonial Army to continue their battle despite great hardship. Also, the British did not have enough troops and had a difficult time trying to control a large area of land. 6. The Redcoats Are Coming: Why did Paul Revere call the British soldiers “the Regulars”? The colonists regarded themselves British, so in his warning, Paul Revere said that “the Regulars” were coming. Revere and others referred to the British soldiers as the Regulars or Redcoats. 7. The Battle of Lexington: Would the Revolutionary War have taken place if the Battle of Lexington had never occurred? Answers will vary. 8. Fighting at the North Bridge: Why did the colonial militiamen finally move against the Redcoats at the North Bridge? The militiamen gathering on a hill outside of Concord moved against the Redcoats because they mistakenly assumed that the soldiers were burning their homes. In reality, the Redcoats were burning the few armaments they had found. 9. The British Retreat: Do you agree that the colonists should have used guerrilla tactics or should they have followed the rules of war? Answers will vary. 10. The Capture of Fort Ticonderoga: Why was the Continental Congress alarmed by the capture of Fort Ticonderoga? The capture of this major military fort was an overt act of aggression. Despite the bloodshed at Lexington and Concord, the Congress hesitated to go to war against England, hoping like many other colonists for reconciliation. The Continental Congress immediately ordered all the captured guns and inventory returned to the British as soon as hostilities had cooled down.

11. Preparing for the Battle of Breed’s Hill: Would you have followed Gage’s strategy at Breed’s Hill or attacked the colonists in a different way? Why? Answers will vary.

12. Fighting at Breed’s Hill: Do you think Joseph Warren and the others who died with him were heroes? Answers will vary.

13.George Washington Becomes Commander: Do you think there was any way the British could have won the Revolutionary War? Answers will vary.

ESSAY

72. ANS:

The Enlightenment encouraged people to use reason and natural law to shape society. Thinkers believed that people were not born sinful, but were born as blank slates. Their experiences and education shaped the nature they developed and the people they became. The Great Awakening was a renewal of the Christian faith that stressed piety and being emotionally united with God. Groups such as the Baptists, Presbyterians, and Methodists gained members. Both movements emphasized individualism and encouraged colonists to seek their independence.

73. ANS: In order to satisfy the concerns of many that the Constitutuion endangered the independence of the states and failed to safeguard Americans’ rights, Federalists promised to attach a bill of rights to the Constitution once it was ratified.

Assignment 8B video quiz American Industrial Revolution KEY 

1. What were the connections between industrialization, the rise of big business, and the advent of the modern corporation? Answer: Industrialization made large‐scale production easier and more cost effective, which in turn  made mass‐produced goods more available to large numbers of people. Production and profitability soared, giving rise to businesses of greater scale and breadth than ever before. As business size grew, regulations were needed to govern their organization, structure, and transactions; thus, the advent of the modern corporation. 2. How did industrialization, the rise of big business, and the advent of the modern corporation affect living standards and opportunity for the upper strata of society? Answer: Industrialization brought enormous economic opportunities for those with money to invest.  The old adage “You’ve got to have money to make money” is especially applicable to this point in American history.  Between 1860 and 1900, 2% of the population controlled 1/3 of the nation’s wealth. As greater fortunes were amassed on the back of industrialization, the living standards of the upper classes reached new heights of opulence. Many of America’s most visible citizens (i.e. Carnegie, Rockefeller, and J.P. Morgan) made their fortunes during this time. 3. How did industrialization, the rise of big business, and the advent of the modern corporation affect living standards and opportunity for the lower strata of society? Answer: American citizens with the least monetary wealth provided the labor for the American industrial revolution. Migrants whose agricultural or mining concerns had failed, immigrants new to the country, and city dwellers with limited skills and resources helped to fill the enormous demand for labor in the new factories. Living standards plummeted as cities became overcrowded, with inadequate sanitation systems and housing. Opportunity for advancement was rare, as the lower classes were underpaid and overworked; standardized education was not available, and children worked long, hard hours, limiting their exposure to skills that would help them advance beyond the factory floor. 4. What was Social Darwinism? How was it used during the American industrial revolution? Answer: Social Darwinism is the theory of Charles Darwin applied to social organization. Based on his biological studies of the evolution, Darwin surmised that the fittest members of a species survive and that their genes stay in the evolutionary pool and contribute to adaptation. Applying this theory to social organization results in the elitist view that the strongest, smartest, and “fittest” members of society survive and thrive, while the weakest, least fit, and worst adapted members fall to the bottom of the bottom of the societal pile. This theory allowed the barons of big business to exploit the working classes with meager wages, deplorable working conditions, and no opportunities for advancement because the barons figured that they were superior to the working classes. 5. What effect did geography have on the makeup of different cities in different parts of the country? Answer: Cities that were on major transportation routes thrived and grew. Transportation routes were developed based on geographical factors:  bodies of water provided access for boats and barges, access to railroad lines provided access to the raw materials and finished goods delivered by rail car, the roads and trails of westward expansion provided access for horse‐drawn transportation, and the impact of the mining crazes of the mid‐eighteenth century provided access to territories previously unexplored. Cities such as New York, Boston, Chicago, and San Francisco were located on major bodies of water.  Cities grew up along major railroad stops. Denver and her surrounding cities grew out of the mining industry. 6. How did urban political machines gain power and how did immigrants, middle‐class reformers, and political bosses view them? Answer: As local governments dawned in the growing American cities, they became a resource for addressing the increasing everyday problems of urban living: transit, paving, water, sanitation, street lighting and cleaning, policing and fire protection.  In exchange for these favors, politicians began to expect graft, or bribes, in return.  These men were generally well‐viewed by citizens.  They were, after all, the only available solution to the many problems confronting new immigrants and others. The political machines also gained clout as they curried favor upon the industrialists and the wealthy; by playing “both sides of the fence,” they became some of the most powerful and influential figures of the early century.  7. Describe the beginnings of the American labor movement.  What factors contributed to its rise and growth? What are the roles of the labor movement in today’s business environment? Answer: The American labor movement grew out of unfair working conditions that sprung from the industrial revolution. The individual worker had little or no clout in determining his/her working hours, wages, and conditions, and generally was greatly exploited by his bosses. Children worked alongside adults for endless workdays and very little pay. Work‐related injuries and even deaths were commonplace. Benefits, such as insurance, time off, and bonuses, were non‐existent. As these breeches of humanity increased, and workers became more and more angry about conditions of employment, people began to organize. There was power in numbers; if one person did not show up for work, he or she was replaced, but if an entire work force went on strike, it had tremendous impact on the profitability of the business. The organization of work forces by industry was called unionization.

Unions became responsible for negotiating wages, benefits, conditions, and terms of employment. Collective bargaining was born, as were the Child Labor Laws. Unions are still active today; groups such as the Teamsters, the AFL‐CIO, and the UAW help the trucking, manufacturing, and automobile industries determine working conditions, wages, and benefits on an ongoing basis. Labor strikes still occur when unions are unable to reach collective bargaining agreements with industries.  8. What was the gender and ethnic diversity of farmers, miners, railroad workers,  and ranchers in the West? How did this diversity contribute to growing cultural unrest in the growing cities? Answer: Millions of Anglo‐Americans, African‐Americans, Mexicans, and European and Chinese immigrants transformed the new West.  Women played a crucial role in this process, as they were assigned most of the domestic labor involved in establishing homesteads, farms, and ranches. Men were often gone from dawn until dusk, leaving the women to tend to the children, housekeeping, food preparation, clothing, and other daunting tasks. The  financial opportunities presented by  The Homestead Act of 1862, the construction of railroads, the discovery of precious ore,  and the herding of cattle drew members of many ethnic populations to the area. (Note: The construction of the transcontinental railroad was notorious for its use and exploitation of Chinese workers. African‐American cowboys were proliferate. And the border between Mexico and the United States was crossed often before immigration legislation instituted strict regulations.) These industries dwindled considerably in the early twentieth century, leaving many of these erstwhile farmers, workers, miners, and cowboys to migrate to America’s burgeoning cities to look for financial opportunity. As the tides of immigration swelled, and the immigrants settled in the cities as well, cultural diversity in these concentrated population grew exponentially. Cultural diversity led to misunderstanding, ethnocentrism, and hatred, which resulted in the cities becoming increasingly dangerous and violent. 9. Describe how agriculture, mining, and ranching were transformed by the industrial revolution. What role did oil play in this process? Answer: Automation of farming and mining equipment made those industries far more productive, resulting in greater yields over shorter periods of time, with less labor investment, and greater economies of scale. Ranching was transformed as the railroads replaced cattle drives as the preferred method of transport for livestock. Oil was discovered to be refinable into gasoline, which was an effective fuel for machinery. The oil industry was born during the industrial revolution.

21. Prohibition, was the legal prevention of the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcoholic beverages in the United States from 1920 to 1933 under the terms of the Eighteenth Amendment. Although the temperance movement, which was widely supported, had succeeded in bringing about this legislation, millions of Americans were willing to drink liquor (distilled spirits) illegally, which gave rise to bootlegging (the illegal production and sale of liquor) and speakeasies (illegal, secretive drinking establishments), both of which were capitalized upon by organized crime. As a result, the Prohibition era also is remembered as a period of gangsterism, characterized by competition and violent turf battles between criminal gangs. On December 5, 1933, Prohibition was repealed at the federal level with the ratification of the Twenty-first Amendment.

ESSAY

76. ANS:

Theodore Roosevelt believed in a strong global military presence. He insisted that displaying American power to the world would make nations think twice about fighting, thus promoting global peace. He often expressed this belief with a West African saying, “Speak softly and carry a big stick.” The voyage of the Great White Fleet was one application of this policy, showcasing the nation’s mighty fleet to the world. Another example was the use of the United States military to aid the revolt in Panama.

77. ANS: Progressivism was not a tightly organized political movement. Progressives had many different views about how to fix the problems they believed existed in American society. They often disagreed with each other, although they generally believed that industrialism and urbanization had created many social problems. They responded to these problems by demanding changes in the law and the Constitution. The issues progressives cared about varied widely, but as a group, they generally agreed the solution lay in pushing for a more active role on the part of the government to solve society’s problems. They also believed that using scientific principles could produce solutions for society. Progressives belonged to both major political parties and usually were urban, educated, middle-class Americans.

To try to cut off supplies going to Britain, the Germans announced in 1915 that their U-boats would sink without warning any ship found in the waters around Britain. This announcement outraged the United States because it violated an international treaty requiring military vessels to reveal their intentions to merchant ships and provide for the safety of the passengers before attacking the ships. In implementing their policy, the Germans sank the British passenger liner Lusitania in the war zone, killing 1,200, including 128 Americans. In 1916 a U-boat torpedoed the French passenger ship Sussex, injuring several Americans on board. In 1917 British intelligence intercepted a telegram from Arthur Zimmermann, a German official. It proposed to offer the Mexican government its “lost territory in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona” if Mexico sided with Germany in the event that the United States entered the war. Furious, many Americans now concluded war with Germany was necessary.

79. ANS: Most economists agree that overproduction was a key cause of the Depression. Increasingly efficient machinery greatly sped the production of factory and farm goods. Most Americans, however, did not earn enough to buy up the flood of goods they helped produce. As consumers bought more on the installment plan, the debt forced some to reduce their other purchases. As sales slowed, manufacturers cut production and laid off employees. Jobless workers had to cut back purchases even more, causing business activity to spiral downward. A second cause was the loss of export sales. American banks were making lucrative loans to speculators instead of to foreign companies. This fact, along with the Hawley-Smoot Tariff that dampened foreign sales in the United States, caused foreign countries to buy fewer American products. A third cause was mistakes by the Federal Reserve. Instead of raising interest rates to curb excessive speculation, it lowered rates. This action encouraged banks to make risky loans and encouraged businesses to borrow more money to expand production, adding to the problem of overproduction.

80. ANS: The New Deal had only limited success in ending the Depression. Unemployment remained high, and economic recovery was not complete until after World War II. Even so, the New Deal gave many Americans a stronger sense of security and stability. The New Deal tended to operate so that it balanced competing economic interests. Business leaders, farmers, workers, consumers, homeowners, and others now looked to government to protect their interests. This “broker” role in mediating among competing interests has continued under the administrations of both parties ever since. Also, the New Deal programs created a “safety net” that protected people against economic disaster. After the Roosevelt years, the American people felt that the government had a duty to maintain this safety net, even though it required a larger, more expensive federal government.
