.... provoke outright race war if they sent their mostly black state militias against the Klan. In many areas Democratic law-enforcement officials were themselves Klan members or sympathizers. Even where local officers took action, Klan members sat on juries and acquitted accused night riders. By 1871 the violence was so serious that Republicans in Congress gave President Ulysses S. Grant authority to use national troops to restore order in affected districts. Faced with trained soldiers empowered to arrest suspects and hold them without trial, the Klan collapsed with surprising swiftness. Although Southern whites resorted to violence to regain control o .....

.... unprecedented scope to stimulate industrial recovery, assist victims of the Depression, guarantee minimum living standards, and prevent future economic crises. Many economic, political, and social factors lead up to the New Deal. Staggering statistics, like a 25% unemployment rate, and the fact that 20% of NYC school children were under weight and malnourished, made it clear immediate action was necessary. In the first two years, the New Deal was concerned mainly with relief, setting up shelters and soup kitchens to feed the millions of unemployed. However as time progressed, the focus shifted towards recovery. In order to accomplish this .....

.... to the bright daybreak of joy, from the midnight of Egyptian captivity to the glittering light of Canaan freedom" explained Dr. King. In the Cradle of the Confederacy, life for the white and the colored citizens was completely segregated. Segregated schools, restaurants, public water fountains, amusement parks, and city buses were part of everyday life in Montgomery, Alabama. “Every person operating a bus line should provide equal accommodations...in such a manner as to separate the white people from Negroes." On Montgomery's buses, black passengers were required by city law to sit in the back of the segregated bus. Negroes were require .....

.... any form of external repression. In 1775 thirteen American colonies revolted against their British rulers. They expressed themselves by using anarchy to be freed from the unjust treatment of the British (Brinkley 120). Living with the hardships of life in the wild, new land, the American settlers gained strength and a firm belief in the rights and liberties of the individual man. They revolted because England interfered with their trade industry, demanded unjust taxes, and sent British troops to compel obedience. In the beginning of the war the colonists fought for their individual rights. After a year of fighting they fought for independence and .....

.... more money into circulation which would cause detrimental inflation. He also had to show the people that banks were safe to put money into. To do this he passed the Emergency Banking Act or the “Banking Holiday�, which temporarily closed banks so that they could be examined and reopened, if fit to do so, with a Treasury Department license. Another way that he took charge was by cutting federal workers’ salaries, and veterans’ pensions and benefits, and anything else that would reduce spending. Roosevelt then created the Civilian Conservation Corps, which gave jobs to young Americans, and also diverted their anger at the government. Anot .....

.... of a shy, insecure teenager. It is hard to believe that Curtis would develop into a well-known actress often considered a sex symbol. An image very different from the awkward, gawky character she portrayed in Halloween. The film opens with a long, single-shot introduction that takes place on Halloween night, 1963. A young Michael Myers watches as his older sister, Judith, sneaks upstairs for a quickie with a guy from school. After the boyfriend has departed, Michael takes a knife out of the kitchen drawer, ascends the staircase, and stabs Judith to death. The entire sequence employs the subjective point- of-view, an approach that writer/director .....

.... progression of violence generated from the music industry. In retrospect, 1969 was a year that possibly initiated the concept of using music to corrupt social values and employed music as a motive for violence. These trends, established in the late 1960s have heightened in severity and are partially responsible for today's violence in music. It is apparent that music has the power of influence, for the act of listening indirectly takes the listener away from other activities. The Parents Music Resource Center reports that American teenagers listen to an estimated 10,500 hours of rock music between the 7th and 12th grades alone - just 500 hours less .....

In 1929 and 1930, Dali collaborated with his friend Louis Burnel on motion pictures enabling him to create jarring juxtapositions, these films were Un Chien Andalau (1929) and L’age’d’or (1930). These films were considered the surrealist style and L’age’d’or caused riots in the streets of Paris (BBC). It was around this time that he met and eloped with Gala Eluard, it is rumored that they never .....

.... hammer. He had truly created a work of art. In 1822 however, when the gun was perfected, he had no money to start production. To remedy this situation he travled the world as “Dr. Coult� ,giving lectures and demonstrations on the silliness of laughing gas for a profit. In 1835, he went out to France and England to take out a patent on his new invention, then in 1836 he got an American patent. In 1837 he tried to to interest the U.S. Government into adopting this sidearm for military use, however they declined, stating that they were satisfied with what they had already. Colt however, was a master salesman. He knew that he had a great inverntion o .....
