The late 1800s was an era marked by outcry by farmers towards Government and corporations for their lack of understanding towards the agrarian cause. As farmers began to have more obstacles put in the way of their economic prospects, they began to set their sights on the political stage as a last ditch effort to make their lives easier. As unrest grew, the Populist party was born to voice complaints on a political scale.

The rapid growth of American cities in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s created huge problems for the government that ran the cities as in most cases in was very poorly structured and could not really give the people what they needed. It is because of the inability of city government to provide these things to the people that there was a rise in political machines. These political machines gained support from the population by providing houses for people who needed them and by also offering people jobs that they desperately needed. This gave the political machines a lot of power and support from there loyal followers.

After the Civil War ended the United States moved into a period referred to as the Gilded Age. The Gilded Age brought to America a rapidly growing economy lead and dominated by the heads of industry and finance. As the economy grew, so did the population which would result in a higher demand for labor and jobs to provide the growing families of America. As more and more jobs were created, the working class would begin to see a decline in working conditions. These poor and worsening conditions left workers upset, exhausted, sick, and in some cases conditions were so terrible that many people died while simply doing their job. When workers turned to government for help, it was most often the case that government would side with the employer in order to keep the economy growing. This neglect by both the government and employers would eventually lead for workers to find their own solutions. This came in the form of the steady rise of organized groups of workers who would gather to protest for change, or labor unions. Though not all labor unions had similar philosophies, they all fought for what they believed they rightly deserved. Americans formed labor unions to fight for safer working conditions, better wages, and reasonable working hours. Labor unions such as The Knights of Labor and The American Federation of Labor gained popularity during this time and achieved varying levels of success for their cause. It was not only Anglo men at the time who made up the working class

Unions began to form early in the 1800's but they didn't gain any traction until the 1860's. The

Among those masses were southern European immigrants. In the late 19th century, the immigration rate increased significantly (Document 1). Eventually, the U.S. government created immigration quotas to monitor the movement. The people entering the U.S. were desperate for work, so they would work for close to nothing in horrific conditions. Due to the decreasing wages, the idea of nativism was growing in popularity Josiah Strong reflects this point of view in his piece The Dangers of Cities (Document 2). Parties such as the Know-Nothings and the Native Americans emerged from the growing nativism. American workers began to form unions to fight for better pay and conditions. One such union was the American Federation of Labor who fought specifically

Huck and Tom decided that they needed to plan out, on how to save Jim. Tom talks about how rescuing Jim is too easy, since his uncle trusts everyone on his farm. He tells Huck that there is more honor in having more difficulties, so he wants to add them himself. Huck is surprised to hear this and questions Tom. Tom then talks about what else they will need on their escape. He wants to do everything the harder way. After talking, Tom decides that Jim should cut off his leg to escape, because that how people in the book did it. Huck refuses to listen to his ideas. Tom also wants to give Jim a shirt, and tell him to make a pencil, and write on a journal on the fabric. He advises that jim used his own blood as ink.

When learning about factual information, it is necessary to learn through the utilization of a textbook. Whether it is in Science courses or History courses, it is essential for a student to gain knowledge through the understanding that a textbook provides. In HIST3, Kevin M. Schultz initiates an approach to learning about United States History in a chronological manner through 1877. While it effectively states the historic events that happened throughout time, it avoids going into specific detail. In Chapter 2 of Schultz HIST3, he states the events that occurred when the first Europeans came into contact with Native Americans. This contact transpired when Europeans set out to explore lands outside of Europe in order to find riches and to

“..the System includes the Situation, but it is more enduring, more widespread, involving extensive networks of people, their expectations, norms, policies, and, perhaps, laws. Over time, Systems come to have a historical foundation and sometimes also a political and economic power structure that governs and directs the behavior of many people within its sphere of influence. Systems are the engines that run situations that create behavioral contexts that influence the human action of those under their control. At some point, the System may become an autonomous entity, independent of those who initially started it or even those in apparent authority within its power structure. Each System

In the 1890’s a third political group, called the Populist Party, formed to achieve broader political representation(Study.com). The new party consisted of farmers, labor leaders, and reformers; they felt the political system shorted them for their hard work and accomplishments. Populist believed in restricted immigration, shorter work days and voting reforms. This party believed in a fairer treatment in labor and politics, and they had rightful justification.

After Hester is released from prison Hawthorne leaves us wondering if her choice to stay in Boston was even a choice she could make. Chapter five opens with Hester coming into the light and leaving the cell in which she had been punished in for so long. However, once she is out, she decides to stay in Massachusetts, in the same community which has shamed her for so long. Hawthorne describes the decision when he writes, “it may seem marvelous, that this woman should still call that place her home… But there is a fatality… which almost invariably compels human beings to linger … the spot where some great and marked event has given the color to their lifetime” (71). In this quote Hawthorne is not only speaking of Hester, he is speaking of
