The Stock Market Crash was an unexpected drop in the value of stocks that caused investors to lose all of their money. Everyone in the United States, and even the world, felt the consequences of the crash. The severeness of the situation was not aided by the government for many years, therefore adding and prolonging the devastation. Along with the fall of the…

population of the voters in the U.S.. The society as a whole was greatly affected in the way of the election, as blacks had the same chances of whites to elect the type of leaders they needed. “By the end of 1966, only 4 out of the traditional 13 Southern states had less than 50% of African Americans registered to vote.

If you are looking for freedom, to state your own opinion without being severely punished, or to feel safe on the streets then Cuba is definitely not the place for you. I wouldn't consider Cuba to have the best human rights ever. Cuba is a country with very little freedom for its citizens. The country was dictated by Fidel Castro. This man would not let the citizens of Cuba leave the country, and would also imprison those who even attempted to leave without permission or escape. Citizens at…

was very influential in the United States sectional conflict, economic prosperity, and development of its infrastructure. When Clay was 4 years old, his father died and he was considered an orphan, even though his mother did not die until 1829. Clay only had three years of formal education, yet the Virginian still became a lawyer by self educating himself. At the age of 20 years, Clay migrated to Kentucky to begin his career as a lawyer.

Gwen Young, a CNN reporter, said that in developing nations, having…

In the recent months Hamilton had slandered Burr in the paper under pseudonyms in the press which had lead to the dawn of July 11th. Burr, as acting vice president, had challenged Hamilton to a duel that Hamilton had begrudgingly accepted. Burr had made a promise to himself to aim at the sky; or delope. Hamilton did not. How could he throw away his shot with a loving wife and eight children at home. His father was never around and Hamilton knew he could never put his beloved children through…
