This would be significant as this idea would be discussed on again in future events such as the spanish-American War in Cuba.]]> 2023-01-12 15:16:32 UTC https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442413126 solomiaprokulevich2 https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442413711 This compromise made California a free state that would not allow for slavery. But it also added that states that were just newly acquired by the United States would have the choice to pick if they are anti-slavery or pro-slavery states. This compromise would be significant as it would allow the choice for states to pick which side they would take on the topic of slavery. This would foreshadow the future of fighting over the topic of slavery.]]> 2023-01-12 15:16:55 UTC https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442413711 solomiaprokulevich2 https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442414624 Harriet Stowe shared ideas of injustices in slavery, this book would eventually be banned for having controversial topics of pro-abolitionism.

This act would help put the union back into the strengthening side and not allow for another division like that to occur.

And it would allow for African Americans to start their journey to freedom.]]> 2023-01-12 15:20:53 UTC https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442419446 solomiaprokulevich2 https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442420416 For $7.2 million the U.S. purchased Alaska from Russia, this purchase would allow for more materials that would be vital for trade. But the main focus of purchasing this land was so that England couldn't buy it instead. The U.S. wanted to keep European powers out of North and South America and so it influenced the expansion in Alaska. This purchase was significant because it stopped the expansion of European powers spreading and expanding in North America as there was not more land to expand to. ]]> 2023-01-12 15:21:28 UTC https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442420416 solomiaprokulevich2 https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442421675 The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in order to allow for people to communicate. Creating the telephone would be significant as now communication distance would not be as big of a barrier and businesses would be able to operate better with this use of the telephone. And the telephone would then be improved again and again to this day to make the cellphone which is a large part of the 21st century.]]> 2023-01-12 15:22:09 UTC https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442421675 solomiaprokulevich2 https://padlet.com/solomiaprokulevich2/xdt5osij5fv6406s/wish/2442422408 Initially it was organized as a strike for radical unionists to protest against police brutality especially in the work force. But once someone threw a bomb killing 8 people the protest turned into a riot and became very violent.

Workers would boycott against unsafe working conditions, low wages, they were controlled by strong leaders and many people worked for conditions that were unworkable.

He was tried because he wanted to sit with the whites in train cars. At the end of the trial, African Americans were given that racial segregation would not stop the Constitutional rights of people.
