During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson
23.2.4). The Navajo code talkers wereimportant during the war because they transmitted
important information without theirenemies knowing. The success of the Navajo Code Talkers
during World War II in thePacific can be attributed to their quick, secure, and error-free
telephone and radiocommunication.After WWII ended, The North Atlantic Treaty
Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,
encouragecooperation, and fight off the Soviet Union while providing collective security.
Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign
thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important
becauseNATO's main goal was to serve and protect the countries that are apart of this
allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning
of the 1930s, Prohibition hadan impact on almost every facet of American culture.During the
1920s, according to Pearson, “Harlem, a thriving African Americanneighborhood in New York
City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the
horror they must have instilled in their victims. Although theyno longer have much of an
impact, the Klan still has members who have the sameunderlying prejudices that led to their
founding.During the 1920s, politics, social norms, and the economy were changing. Thephrase
"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new
women” as a homemaker, a mother, high fashion sopisticate,spending time socializing
(Pearson). During this time, women’s lifestyle drasticallychanged now integrating/mimicing
men’s lifestyle. The media became a huge part ofadvertising how women are supposed to act
and look. Margaret Sanger was a feministand sex educator who educated women on effective
methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women
and led to the women’s rights movement which pushed for equal rights.

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.
During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson
23.2.4). The Navajo code talkers wereimportant during the war because they transmitted
important information without theirenemies knowing. The success of the Navajo Code Talkers
during World War II in thePacific can be attributed to their quick, secure, and error-free
telephone and radiocommunication.After WWII ended, The North Atlantic Treaty
Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,
encouragecooperation, and fight off the Soviet Union while providing collective security.
Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign
thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important
becauseNATO's main goal was to serve and protect the countries that are apart of this
allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning
of the 1930s, Prohibition hadan impact on almost every facet of American culture.During the
1920s, according to Pearson, “Harlem, a thriving African Americanneighborhood in New York
City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the
horror they must have instilled in their victims. Although theyno longer have much of an
impact, the Klan still has members who have the sameunderlying prejudices that led to their
founding.During the 1920s, politics, social norms, and the economy were changing. Thephrase
"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new
women” as a homemaker, a mother, high fashion sopisticate,spending time socializing
(Pearson). During this time, women’s lifestyle drasticallychanged now integrating/mimicing
men’s lifestyle. The media became a huge part ofadvertising how women are supposed to act
and look. Margaret Sanger was a feministand sex educator who educated women on effective
methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women
and led to the women’s rights movement which pushed for equal rights.
During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson
23.2.4). The Navajo code talkers wereimportant during the war because they transmitted
important information without theirenemies knowing. The success of the Navajo Code Talkers
during World War II in thePacific can be attributed to their quick, secure, and error-free
telephone and radiocommunication.After WWII ended, The North Atlantic Treaty
Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,
encouragecooperation, and fight off the Soviet Union while providing collective security.
Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign
thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important
becauseNATO's main goal was to serve and protect the countries that are apart of this
allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning
of the 1930s, Prohibition hadan impact on almost every facet of American culture.During the

formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the
horror they must have instilled in their victims. Although theyno longer have much of an
impact, the Klan still has members who have the sameunderlying prejudices that led to their

"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new
women” as a homemaker, a mother, high fashion sopisticate,spending time socializing
(Pearson). During this time, women’s lifestyle drasticallychanged now integrating/mimicing
men’s lifestyle. The media became a huge part ofadvertising how women are supposed to act
and look. Margaret Sanger was a feministand sex educator who educated women on effective
methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the
horror they must have instilled in their victims. Although theyno longer have much of an
impact, the Klan still has members who have the sameunderlying prejudices that led to their
founding.During the 1920s, politics, social norms, and the economy were changing. Thephrase
"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new
women” as a homemaker, a mother, high fashion sopisticate,spending time socializing
(Pearson). During this time, women’s lifestyle drasticallychanged now integrating/mimicing
men’s lifestyle. The media became a huge part ofadvertising how women are supposed to act
and look. Margaret Sanger was a feministand sex educator who educated women on effective
methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women
and led to the women’s rights movement which pushed for equal rights.
During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson
23.2.4). The Navajo code talkers wereimportant during the war because they transmitted
important information without theirenemies knowing. The success of the Navajo Code Talkers
during World War II in thePacific can be attributed to their quick, secure, and error-free
telephone and radiocommunication.After WWII ended, The North Atlantic Treaty
Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,
encouragecooperation, and fight off the Soviet Union while providing collective security.
Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign
thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important
becauseNATO's main goal was to serve and protect the countries that are apart of this
allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new

methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women
and led to the women’s rights movement which pushed for equal rights.
During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson
23.2.4). The Navajo code talkers wereimportant during the war because they transmitted
important information without theirenemies knowing. The success of the Navajo Code Talkers
during World War II in thePacific can be attributed to their quick, secure, and error-free
telephone and radiocommunication.After WWII ended, The North Atlantic Treaty
Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,
encouragecooperation, and fight off the Soviet Union while providing collective security.
Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign

the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning
of the 1930s, Prohibition hadan impact on almost every facet of American culture.During the
1920s, according to Pearson, “Harlem, a thriving African Americanneighborhood in New York
City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s

mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per

it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the
horror they must have instilled in their victims. Although theyno longer have much of an
impact, the Klan still has members who have the sameunderlying prejudices that led to their
founding.During the 1920s, politics, social norms, and the economy were changing. Thephrase
"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new
women” as a homemaker, a mother, high fashion sopisticate,spending time socializing
(Pearson). During this time, women’s lifestyle drasticallychanged now integrating/mimicing
men’s lifestyle. The media became a huge part ofadvertising how women are supposed to act
and look. Margaret Sanger was a feministand sex educator who educated women on effective
methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women
and led to the women’s rights movement which pushed for equal rights.
During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson
23.2.4). The Navajo code talkers wereimportant during the war because they transmitted
important information without theirenemies knowing. The success of the Navajo Code Talkers
during World War II in thePacific can be attributed to their quick, secure, and error-free
telephone and radiocommunication.After WWII ended, The North Atlantic Treaty
Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,
encouragecooperation, and fight off the Soviet Union while providing collective security.
Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign
thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important
becauseNATO's main goal was to serve and protect the countries that are apart of this
allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new

methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women
and led to the women’s rights movement which pushed for equal rights.
During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson
23.2.4). The Navajo code talkers wereimportant during the war because they transmitted
important information without theirenemies knowing. The success of the Navajo Code Talkers
during World War II in thePacific can be attributed to their quick, secure, and error-free
telephone and radiocommunication.After WWII ended, The North Atlantic Treaty
Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,
encouragecooperation, and fight off the Soviet Union while providing collective security.
Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign
thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important
becauseNATO's main goal was to serve and protect the countries that are apart of this
allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning
of the 1930s, Prohibition hadan impact on almost every facet of American culture.During the
1920s, according to Pearson, “Harlem, a thriving African Americanneighborhood in New York
City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.

Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,

Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign
thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important

allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning
of the 1930s, Prohibition hadan impact on almost every facet of American culture.During the
1920s, according to Pearson, “Harlem, a thriving African Americanneighborhood in New York
City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the
horror they must have instilled in their victims. Although theyno longer have much of an
impact, the Klan still has members who have the sameunderlying prejudices that led to their
founding.During the 1920s, politics, social norms, and the economy were changing. Thephrase
"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new
women” as a homemaker, a mother, high fashion sopisticate,spending time socializing
(Pearson). During this time, women’s lifestyle drasticallychanged now integrating/mimicing
men’s lifestyle. The media became a huge part ofadvertising how women are supposed to act
and look. Margaret Sanger was a feministand sex educator who educated women on effective
methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women
and led to the women’s rights movement which pushed for equal rights.
During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson

The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.
During WWII in 1942, Native Americans, especially Choctow, Cherokee andNavajo, used their
tonal language to encrypt and exchange secret messages. Sincetheir indiengous language is not
written, it is hard to transliterate. According to Pearson,“Military service offered many young
Native Americans their first decent wages and achance to leave the reservation,” (Pearson
23.2.4). The Navajo code talkers wereimportant during the war because they transmitted
important information without theirenemies knowing. The success of the Navajo Code Talkers
during World War II in thePacific can be attributed to their quick, secure, and error-free
telephone and radiocommunication.After WWII ended, The North Atlantic Treaty
Organization was formed. Itspurpose were to keep American and European relations in peace,
encouragecooperation, and fight off the Soviet Union while providing collective security.
Twelvenations from Europe and North America gathered in Washington in 1949 to sign
thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important
becauseNATO's main goal was to serve and protect the countries that are apart of this
allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning
of the 1930s, Prohibition hadan impact on almost every facet of American culture.During the
1920s, according to Pearson, “Harlem, a thriving African Americanneighborhood in New York
City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the
horror they must have instilled in their victims. Although theyno longer have much of an
impact, the Klan still has members who have the sameunderlying prejudices that led to their
founding.During the 1920s, politics, social norms, and the economy were changing. Thephrase
"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in

thefounding treaty of the Alliance. It binds the Allies to uphold democratic ideals,
individualfreedom, the rule of law, and peaceful conflict settlement. This is important
becauseNATO's main goal was to serve and protect the countries that are apart of this
allianceand that every country in this alliance has each others backs.Between 1920 and 1933,
the prohibition clauses of the Eighteenth Amendmentforbade the production, distribution, and
transportation of alcoholic beverages in the US.
The temperance movement, which was widely supported, had been successful inbringing about
this legislation. Due to competitiveness and brutal turf wars betweencriminal gangs, the
Prohibition era is also known as a time of gangsterism. The potentialof additional jobs and tax
money from the legalization of alcohol combined with the startof the Great Depression
following the 1929 stock market crash under Hoover led to awave of political support for repeal
and for Roosevelt. At least half of the adultpopulation wanted to continue drinking, which is
why Prohibition failed. Although theProhibition act failed, during the 1920s and the beginning
of the 1930s, Prohibition hadan impact on almost every facet of American culture.During the
1920s, according to Pearson, “Harlem, a thriving African Americanneighborhood in New York
City that became the hub of black politics and culture in the1920s,”(Pearson 21.3.3). Influencal
people such as poet Langston Hughes changed theliterary scence discussing black American’s
aspirations; Zora Huston focused on writingabout her experience as a black women; Jazz singer
Louis Armstrong heavilyinfluenced the jazz scene by including jazz music innovations; the
Cotton Club was oneof the most famous club that featured many African American entertainers.
The AfricanAmerican community underwent a permanent alteration as a result of the
HarlemRenaissance. The Civil Rights movement and other significant events were
madepossible by this emergence, which continues to have a significant impact on the
AfricanAmerican community today.The Ku Klux Klan is a terrorist white supremicst group
formed after the AmericanCivil War that commit hate crimes and to supress especially towards
African Americansand their liberties and rights. Lynching and intimidation were frequent
throughout the South. In order to keep former slave African-American men from voting, the
KKK wouldinvolve extreme acts of torture including murder. According to Pearson,”Lynch
mobstortured and killed nearly 5,000 victims between 1880 and 1930 roughly two per
week,”(Pearson 21.3.1). Lynching produced a fear-based environment that aided white
peoplein keeping black people under societal control. No matter what, the Ku Klux Klan left
amark on American history that could never be removed. At its height, their politicalinfluence
was enormous and widespread, encompassing the entire nation. It'simpossible to imagine the
horror they must have instilled in their victims. Although theyno longer have much of an
impact, the Klan still has members who have the sameunderlying prejudices that led to their
founding.During the 1920s, politics, social norms, and the economy were changing. Thephrase
"The New Woman" referred to a new generation of women who were more freethan women in
earlier generations. It challenged conventional social, economic, andeducational
responsibilities while reflecting the shifting roles of women. Advertisingcharacterized the “new
women” as a homemaker, a mother, high fashion sopisticate,spending time socializing
(Pearson). During this time, women’s lifestyle drasticallychanged now integrating/mimicing
men’s lifestyle. The media became a huge part ofadvertising how women are supposed to act
and look. Margaret Sanger was a feministand sex educator who educated women on effective
methods of contraception. InBrooklyn, New York, Sanger established the first birth control
clinic in the country anddistributed posters to promote the advantages of birth control over
illegal abortions(Pearson). Because of this, Sanger got arrested. The Comstock Act has made
it illegalto convey information about abortion and contraception since 1873. Sanger steadily
changed attitudes around birth control through her clinics, public lectures, and arrests.The
“New Women” era was significant because it changed the views of the stereotypesof a women
and led to the women’s rights movement which pushed for equal rights.
The worst economic catastrophe in American history prompted the New Deal. Asthe United
States suffered from the effects of the Great Depression, the FranklinRoosevelt’s administration
made efforts to help the unemployed, revive the economy,and propose a type of structural
reform that would safeguard residents in times of crisis.It was a multifaceted, occasionally
chaotic endeavor to address the various aspects ofthe calamity.First, the New Deal addressed
the unemployed. The Relief program wereexecuted to immediately stop the economic collapse,
and assisting homeowners withtheir mortgage payments and home ownership, which also
helped to keep the banksafloat. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by the
government toaid in the search for employment, provide housing for those without it, and halt
theexpansion of the Dust Bowl. To labor with the CCC, young, single men without jobs apply.
They had access to housing, food, and some cash for labor. The Social Secuirtypension system
assisted for the elderly and unemployed, providing them income.The New Deal Recovery
programs sought to restore economic stability bycreating employment possibilities, reducing
crop output to raise prices. A federal statutefrom the New Deal of the United States called the
Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA)was created to raise agricultural prices by eliminating
surpluses. The government paidfarmers with subsidies not to plant on a portion of their land
and purchased livestock forslaughter.Lastly, the New Deal addressed the structural reform.
These included theEmergency Banking Act, which is ensured that only financially sound banks
remainedopen, as well as public holidays that would shut down financial institutions when a
waveof financial panic erupted. The FIDC was established to safeguard common
Americans’deposits by separating investment from commercial banking.The New Deal was a
successful response to the Great Depression because itgave people immediate relief, restored
their confidence, helped the economy recover,and opened the door for significant government
reform that has persisted to the presentday. The New Deal's programs enhanced the lives of
individuals who were impacted bythe depression's events. In the long run, New Deal programs
set the stage for thefederal government to play a significant role in the social and economic life
of thenation.
