Unification Of The City Of Nashville

Nashville Tennessee is often known as the Country Capital of the World. Not only is it the birthplace of country music but it also is home to some of the most famous artist from the last century. Some of the artist include Elvis Presley, Dolly Parton, Reba Mcentire, and Miley Cyrus. In 2010 a flood left the town of Nashville devastated. From there many Businesses, malls, and historic landmarks found themselves struggling to rebuild from the water damage. Nashville is also home to the first recording studio Elvis Presley used and recorded at frequently throughout his career. You can still tour this small recording studio known as Studio B, and hear the amazing stories and here about the other legends that used it.

always been what we recognize it as today. Country music began in the 1920’s in a town in Tennessee called Bristol and was recognized for its hillbilly and folk format. Country music artists like Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, and Jerry Lee Lewis are each responsible for creating this music format that was written mostly about everyday life. Today country music is recognized as a more modern contemporary version of music. Today’s country artists have started to change their sound in order to appeal to the mainstream audience in order to make more money. Miranda Lambert said “there’s been a shift: country music is popular now. Every other genre wants to come over to our land.”

The literary movement of local-color regionalism in American literature is a very distinctive and interesting form of fiction writing that effectively combines regional characteristics, dialect, customs and humor. In Bret Harte’s Tennessee’s Partner, these characteristics helped the story jump off the page, allowing the reader to understand the “times” rather than just the characters. And, for that reason, I feel that this is an outstanding piece of work.

Nestled in the Smoky Mountains, Gatlinburg has become an area that East Tennessee State University students go to visit. Gatlinburg offers something for many; however, the city has some growing pains such as traffic and limited space. Thus, the city of Gatlinburg offers many things that a traveler could need and want, provided that he or she is willing to overlook the city’s rapid growth.

In “Kentucky Town of Manchester Illustrates National Obesity Crisis” by Wil Haygood, he AV that obese people don’t want to face their obesity problems, obese people are embarrassed of their body. Obesity is a subject that people try to avoid because it’s an uncomfortable topic to discuss. Haygood meets the Robinson family in a small town called Manchester. The town is filled with numerous fast-food joints where a feeling of “cleaning off your plate” is held in many homes, this attitude illustrates the point that Warner makes about the American Culture. People in Manchester grow up with a culture of cleaning off their plates full of unhealthy food. As Haygood talks with the two Robinson sisters, Britney and Carlin, they reveal their embarrassment

In 1860 when “the McGavock and Mt. Vernon Horse Railroad Company and the South Nashville Street Railroad Company were chartered and used steam and mules to power rail cars to give Nashville its first taste of public transportation. On April 30, 1889, the McGavock and Mt. Vernon Horse Railroad Company operated the first electric streetcar in Nashville, and the city became one of the first in the nation to have such "modern" transportation.” (History of Transit in Nashville)

“Nashville” by Tiana Clark was published in 2017 and details the experience of a black women through first person during present time and how her life as a black woman relates back strongly to the civil rights movement of the 1960’s. The speaker is a woman who is married to a white man and that is chasing someone who said a racial slur to her on the streets. She talks about how the civil rights movement happened and how it changed but how history repeats itself in a way that racism is still around today. The poem ends with her trying to come with peace with finding out who said the racial slur so she can get over it and move on. Racism has been around a long time. This poem in a deeper sense is about death of innocent people and

Project: The Middle Tennessee History Coalition (MTHC), in collaboration with the Tennessee State Library and Archives the North Carolina State Library, and the University of North Carolina, proposes a project that will digitize the Colonial and State Records of North Carolina. This is a collection of approximately 9,400 documents that cover a period from European settlement to the founding of the United States and beyond. All twenty-six volumes will be digitized. The colonial records of North Carolina were originally compiled before 1886 by William Saunders, and covered the period between early settlement of the colony and 1776. Saunders was a newspaper editor, lawyer, and ultimately the Secretary of State for North Carolina. Saunders

wenty years after Tennessee statehood, the Chickasaws signed the 1818 treaty that secured the area for settlement. The first farm families came to Madison County in 1819 and settled east of Jackson in Cotton Gin Grove. In the following year, additional pioneers settled further west on the banks of the Forked Deer River in a community they named Alexandria. In 1822 Alexandria changed its name to Jackson in honor of Andrew Jackson. Jackson's sister-in-law Jane Hayes lived in the city, and Jackson played an important role in the early history of Madison County.

East Tennessee, being the first settled, at one point had the largest majority of the state’s population, but by 1860 contained only 27 percent of its total (Bergeron, Ash, Keith 110). This decline could be attributed to the terrain. The land was not suited for large commercial agriculture. Hampered by the mountains, hills, and the lack of easily navigable water, exporting was difficult. Small family farms of corn, wheat, cattle and hogs prevailed (Bergeron, Ash, Keith 112-113).

In 1630, John Winthrop dreamt that America was a “City on the Hill”, predestined for preeminence. In 1776, the American Colonies proclaimed independence with the affirmation that all men are equal, free, and blessed with the sacred rights to life, liberty, and happiness. These uniquely American ideals ideals characterized the young democracy in contrast to the oppressive monarchies of Europe. European citizens saw the correlation between America’s greatness and its democratic principles. The liberties that America furnished to all men, regardless of status, gave citizens pride in their nation and drew envy from constituents of tyrannical monarchies. The notions of equality and freedom, however, did not extend to all of America’s population;

why was did the destruction of the reconstruction happen and who's fault was it north or the south. The process of rebuilding the south after the civil war. The reconstruction happened after the civil war and after the slaves were freed they were trying to rebuild the south and almost everyone wanted that except the KKK and the south gave up on them because of their resistance. Who from the nation destroyed the process of reconstruction. The south resistance destroyed reconstruction of the United States by the resistance from the KKK and the north's neglect of the south's problems.

The Reconstruction was from 1865 until 1877, which was after the Civil War (Britannica, 2017). The purpose of it was to end the inequities of slavery as well as other issues, such as issues within politics, the economic legacy and to try to resolve the ongoing problems in getting back into the Union of the eleven states before the war had started (Britannica, 2017).

Nashville migrated west somewhere along the line and was working as a scout for the U.S. Army in Texas, Oklahoma and the Dakotas during the 1870’s. He also was a gambler, bartender, rancher, miner, and gunfighter and con-man. He killed 2 men in Arizona in self defense. He then killed a woman in his ranch while drunk and in
