@tkhunny

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Well, since it was so unusual, you can draw a picture of a Black Man who owns a Peach Tree Orchard, paying a White worker a fair wage for a days fruit picking.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uh ok my homework is asking to pick a side ( i want slavery to stop) and draw a political cartoon. and the cartoon needs to talk. can you plz help me or give me an idea so i can draw it

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

You said Western Territories. The side I suggested was, It already did stop and people magically seem to be getting along. Does your point of view have to be your actual point of view, or just something that you can argue?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

slavery didnt stop my point of view is i want to stop slavery i need to draw a cartoon that represent that

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Well, you didn't say that. Why did you pick the Western Territories?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i said i need to draw a political cartoon about the issue of slavery in the western territories. there were arguments about slavery in the west

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Okay, what evidence do you have of Slavery in the Western Territories?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

many northerners feared that the south would extend slavery into the west, david wilmot called to ban slavery in any territories won from mexico. the southerner were mad. as a result americans argue about slavery in the west.

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

I see. That is a prevailing attitude. Looking back over the perspective of things that are now known, we might rephrase this argument. Many Northerners irrationally feared that the South would extend slavery into the West. David Wilmot, and other who opposed slavery, in an attempt to further discourage slavery and gain political advantage, called to ban slavery in any territories won from Mexico. The Southerners were mad, as they saw the play for political power by the abolitionists. As a result Northern and Southern Americans argued about slavery in the West, but those actually living in the West gave it very little thought by comparison. You've suggested that there were fears of slavery in the West, but you've presented no evidence that there was any.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i didnt say theres slavery in the west

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all i want is a political cartoon what does this have to do with anything

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

You ARE going to have to be more coherent in your arguments. You are all over the place. You don't seem to remember what you do and don't say. Besides, if you are talking about "slavery in the west" as a political fear, rather than a reality, you are barking up the wrong tree. Look up "Twin Relics of Barbarism". The real irrational fear from the West was NOT slavery. Political cartoons have to be based on real issues. You can't just make them up.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lets start all over

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im going to tell you the question for my homework ok.

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Fair enough.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

draw a political cartoon about the issue of slavery in the western territories. assume one of the opposing viewpoints described in this section: southern slaveholder, abolitionist, supporter of extending the Missouri compromise sovereignty. then create a cartoon the represents your point of view

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Okay, which point of view are you taking? Abolitionist?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes abolitionist

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Keep in mind that "Western Territories" in 1820 meant some of present day Arkansas, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, and maybe Washington, Idaho, and Oregon. Most of Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, and California would NOT have been part of that argument.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uh tkhunny are you there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Based on what you read from Eugene Deb's statement to the courts, what conclusion can be drawn about the climate of American politics in 1918?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The government worked quickly to suppress radical ideas and beliefs. Socialism was seen as a threat to the American system of capitalism. Americans were optimistic about the future of their country. Economic hardship forced many Americans to reconsider their political beliefs.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are you saying

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiple choice question lol
