Shakers

Shaker Communities During the 1800’s many utopian societies sprouted in the United States. Most of these societies blossomed and faded quite quickly, but one group did not fade away like the others. This society successfully combined their faith with the reasoning of the changing times and kept their communities going strong. They are or known as the Shakers, or more formally as the members of the United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing. The Shakers were inventors and thinkers

Shaker is originated from England and was first brought to America in the year of 1774. The word Shakers, or Shaking Quakers, came from a religious ecstatic movement that depicts pure and humble living. Members of the shaker communities were self-sufficient, they distinct themselves from the outside realm, making them grow their own food, creating tools, furnishing, and constructing buildings. They also live under strict rules that addressing behavior, dress, and domestic environment but Shakers

Shakers were a religious sect, founded in the 18th Century in England, having branched off from a Quaker community. They were known as the “Shaking Quakers” due to their ecstatic behaviour during worship services. Since the late Eighteenth Century, Shakers exerted an influence disproportionate to the size of their communities. Their approach helped shape everything in terms of craftsmanship and ingenuity. The innovative spirit they brought to simply, Godly living is indeed the most timeless aspect

religious movements during that time period I would love to tell you about, they are, the birth Shakers and the Pleasant Hill Community, the birth of Mormons with Joseph Smith, and the story of “How the American Revolution Agreed to Differ over Religion”. I hope you find these topics as important and interesting as I do. In 1774 Mother Ann Lee founded a utopian society in Europe, later to be known as Shakers (Shaker Presentation). Immediately after her founding she moved to America in order to escape religious

These three groups were all inspired by radical Christian notions of “human perfectibility”, but other experiments existed that based their lifestyles off of more secular ideas. The most famous of these secular experiments was Brook Farm, founded in Roxbury, Massachusetts in 1841. The Shakers represented one end of the spectrum for these

Many people saw, and still see, democratic government as unfair, leaving the poor behind to become poorer while the rich continued to get richer; they felt a change in work and fairness was officially in order. Utopian societies were created with commendable intentions, and their idea of the perfect cooperative society is an attractive conference

different ways to find their own success. Two societies in particular, that struck me in their techniques to survive were, the Shakers and the Mormons. Both of these religious groups today are still successful. Both groups used methods of economics, gender roles, and their relationship to the outside world to find their own success in the religious community. The shakers arose in the 17th century making them one of the earliest religious groups or sects today. They came to America with only nine

An age of reform swept through our nation due to the unfairness that was happening in our country. Many people fought for change for themselves and for others that involved problems like alcohol and humane treatment for the insane. The radicals did their best for what they thought was right and changed our country for the better. There were costs and benefits to many movements, groups, and radical individuals who sought change between 1840 and 1877. They created conflict, chaos, and changes that

In the late 1960’s the right to vote, freedom of speech, fair and equal treatment movement happened in America, blacks were being discriminated and separated because of their race and religion. The “Sexual Revolution” social movement was also going on, that strained traditional codes of behavior related to sexuality and between people’s relationships. Women were fighting for their rights and state where all things are equal. When Richard Nixon the president of the Unite States bombed Vietnam all

Science makes our life much easier in so many ways that sometimes we don't even How is science relevant in the modern day? Adnan Shaker notice how helpful it is. The best example of this is how we use electricity in our everyday lives, from the lights that we us to light up the streets to the computers and televisions that we use as entertainment and work in our everyday lives. Science makes our lives way quicker. A journey that would take weeks or months now takes days or even hours, thanks to
