Bell Ringer:  Good evening, my fellow citizens. This Government, as promised, has maintained the closest surveillance of the Soviet military build-up on the island of Cuba. Within the past week unmistakable evidence has established the fact that a series of offensive missile sites is now in preparation on that imprisoned island. The purposes of these bases can be none other than to provide a nuclear strike capability against the Western Hemisphere….— President John F. Kennedy, Report to

the American People, October 22, 1962

 

President John F. Kennedy reacted strongly to the situation described in this speech primarily because

(1) the United States feared an influx of Cuban refugees

(2) these missiles could threaten United States oil supplies in South America

(3) the location of Cuba would allow the United States little time to respond to an attack

(4) the United States and the Warsaw Pact nations had formed a military alliance

Student Name ___________________________________________

 

Base your answer to question 1 on the passage below and on your knowledge of social studies.

. . . In our opinion, formed from data obtained by assiduous [thorough] researches, and comparisons, from laborious investigation, logical reasoning, and earnest reflection, the causes which have impeded the progress and prosperity of the South, which have dwindled our commerce, and other similar pursuits, into the most contemptible insignificance; entailed upon us a humiliating dependence on the Free States; disgrace us in the recesses of our own souls, and brought us under reproach in the eyes of all civilians and enlightened nations—may all be traced to one common source, the most hateful —Slavery! . . .

— Hinton Helper,

The Impending Crisis of the South: How To Meet It, 1857

 

1. This statement most clearly expresses the author’s opinion that slavery

(1) should be extended into the western territories

(2) caused the North to be dependent on the South

(3) was the cause of economic and social problems in the South

(4) was the reason the South should secede from the Union

 

2. The passage of the Homestead Act (1862) and the completion of the first transcontinental railroad (1869) encouraged settlement in which region?

(1) Great Plains

(2) Atlantic Coastal Plain

(3) Ohio River valley

(4) Gulf Coast

 

3. Which statement is a valid generalization about the experience of African Americans during the early Reconstruction period (1865–1870)?

(1) They gained economic equality.

(2) Their participation in government decreased.

(3) They achieved legal rights through constitutional amendments.

(4) Their political equality was opposed by most Radical Republicans.

 

4. The system of sharecropping developed in the South after the Civil War because

(1) most formerly enslaved persons had no farming skills

(2) owners of large tracts of land faced labor shortages

(3) much farmland was ruined by the war

(4) plantation owners wanted to diversify crops

 

5. The United States government’s use of laissez-faire principles during the late 19th century resulted in the

(1) commitment of aid to small American businesses

(2) decline in the number of factory jobs

(3) opposition of American businesses to protective tariffs

(4) growth of trusts and monopolies

 

6. What was one result of the Supreme Court’s decision in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896)?

(1) Public schools were integrated nationwide.

(2) The “separate but equal” doctrine was established.

(3) Civil rights for African Americans were strengthened.

(4) Northern states were forced to segregate public facilities.

 

7. In 1899, the United States proclaimed the Open Door policy in an attempt to

(1) ensure trading opportunities in China

(2) keep the Philippines from attacking China

(3) increase trade between Russia and the United States

(4) prevent European countries from colonizing Africa

 

Base your answers to questions 8 and 9 on the speakers’ statements below and on your knowledge of social studies.

 

Speaker A: It is disgraceful that we allow children in this country to work long hours in unsanitary, unsafe conditions. The government must step in and protect our children.

 

Speaker B: We must allow businesses to compete freely without government

intervention. The best will survive.

 

Speaker C: Monopolies and trusts make it impossible for small businesses to compete. Monopolies lower their prices to eliminate competition, and then they charge consumers even higher prices.

 

Speaker D: Big business is good for the country. It increases the nation’s wealth, provides jobs, and strengthens the country.

 

8. What would Speaker B most likely want the federal government to do?

(1) Regulate child labor.

(2) Adopt a progressive income tax.

You Do Make a C.E.R. (Claim Evidence and Reason) using 2 of the documents below

READ: "Prepared to Move"

Head Note: Lee was appointed the U.S. Consul-General in Havana, Cuba in 1896 by President Grover Cleveland. He wrote this letter to the Assistant Secretary of State in the U.S almost three months before the Maine explosion.

SIR: ...

I still think that two war ships at least should be at Key West, prepared to move here at short notice, and that more of them should be sent to Dry Tortugas, and a coal station be established there. Such proceedings would seem to be in line with that prudence and foresight necessary to afford safety to the Americans residing on the island, and to their properties, both of which, I have every reason to know, are objects of the greatest concern to our Government.

I am, etc.,

FITZHUGH LEE,

Consul-General.

Source: Excerpt from telegram sent by Fitzhugh Lee, U.S. Consul-General in Cuba, December 3, 1897. Havana, Cuba.

 

 

READ: Miss Cuba Receives an Invitation

Head Note: Uncle Sam says to “her fair neighbor,” Miss Cuba (keenling): "Won’t you join the stars and be my forty-sixth?" By December 1898, the U.S. had defeated the Spanish and the Treaty of Paris gave the U.S. control of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines. In 1901, Cuba was under U.S. military rule, Cubans were drafting their constitution, and the role of the U.S. in Cuba was being debated in both countries.

 

 

Awake United States!

This song was rushed into print between the sinking of the Maine on February 16, 1898 and the declaration of war on April 25, 1898.

Eagle soar on high, and sound the battle cry!

1. How proudly sailed the warship Maine,
a Nation's pride, without a stain!
A wreck she lies, her sailors slain.
By Trecherous butchers, paid by Spain!

Refrain:

Eagle soar on high,
And sound the battle cry
Wave the starry flag!
In mire it shall not drag!

2. Why does the breeze such sad thoughts bring,
Like murmuring seas the echoes sing?
Why do clouds thus backward roll.
Like wave on wave, on rock on shoal!
.....
3. Awake! Thy Stars and Stripes unfurl,
And shot and shell and vengeance hurl!
Though clouds gather, they will go,
and sunlight follow after woe.

Refrain:

Awake! it is no dream;
Dost hear the sailors scream?
Comrades will you go?
Avenge the cruel blow!
.....
And crush their marble heart!
Marie Elizabeth Lamb, Awake United States! (New Orleans, LA: 1898).

Pun Chi Appeals to Congress on Behalf of Chinese Immigrants in California (1870)

Pun Chi outlines the many ways life in California has betrayed the hopes of Chinese immigrants and violated the basic principles of common humanity.

…The ship-masters of your extolled nation came over to our country lauded the equality of your laws, officers and people were extremely cordial toward the Chinese…we trusted your sincerity. Not deterred by the long voyage we came here presuming that our arrival would be hailed with favor. But,…when former kind relations are forgotten, when we the Chinese are viewed like thieves and enemies. The conduct of officers of justice here has been influenced by temporary prejudices and that your honorable government will surely not uphold their acts….Your Supreme Court has decided that the Chinese shall not bring action or give testimony against white men… Shall this degrade us beneath the negro and the Indian?...perhaps robbers come and strip him of the gold. He dare not resist, since he cannot speak the language…they assault [us] with pistols and other weapons, and some miners have lost their lives, and there is no redress…your courts refuse us the right of testimony; your legislature load us with increasing taxes and devise means hot to wholly expel us…

Steel Worker Explains the Labor Market (1885)

Thomas O’Donnell worked as a mule spinner (operated a machine that spun cotton fibers into yarn) for eleven years in textile mills in Fall River, Massachusetts.

Senator Blair: Are you a married man?

Thomas O’Donnell: Yes, sir; I am a married man; I have a wife and two children. I am not very well educated, I went to work when I was young and have been working ever since in the cotton business; went to work when I was about eight or nine years old. I was going to state how I live. My children get along very well in summer time, on account of not having to buy fuel or shoes or one thing and another. I earn $1.50 a day and can’t afford to pay very big house rent. I pay $1.50 a week in rent, which comes to $6.00 a month.

Blair: That is, you pay this where you are in Fall River?

O’Donnell: Yes, Sir.

Blair: Do you have work right along?

O’Donnell: No sir; since that strike we had down in Fall River about three year ago I have not worked much more than half the time, and that has brought me circumstance down very much.

Blair: Why have you not worked more than half the time since then?

O’Donnell: In a great many cases they discharge men in that work and put men who have sons. Men who have sons of their own capable enough to work in a mill, to earn $.30 or $.40 a day.

Blair: Is the object of that to enable boys to earn something for himself?

O’Donnell: Well, no; the object is this: They are doing away with mule spinning and putting in ring spinning, and for that reason it takes a good deal of small help to run the ring work.

            “…The South maintained with the depth of religious conviction that the Union formed under the Constitution was a Union of consent and not of force; that the original States were not the creatures but the creators of the Union; that these States had gained their independence, their freedom, and their sovereignty from the mother country…” -John B Gordon Confederate General Reminiscences of the Civil War

 

“[African Americans] had no rights which the white man was bound to respect; and that the negro might justly and lawfully be reduced to slavery for his benefit. He was bought and sold and treated as an ordinary article of merchandise, whenever profit could be made by it.” Chief Justice Taney, Dred Scott v. Sanford (1857)

. . . The object of the amendment was undoubtedly to enforce the absolute equality of the two races before the law, but, in the nature of things, it could not have been intended to abolish distinctions based upon color, or to enforce social, as distinguished from political, equality, or a commingling of the two races upon terms unsatisfactory to either. Laws permitting, and even requiring, their separation in places where they are liable to be brought into contact do not necessarily imply the inferiority of either race to the other, and have been generally, if not universally, recognized as within the competency of the state legislatures in the exercise of their police power. The most common instance of this is connected with the establishment of separate schools for white and colored [African American] children, which has been held to be a valid exercise of the legislative power even by courts of States where the political rights of the colored race have been longest and most earnestly enforced. . . .

— United States Supreme Court, 1896

Bell Ringer:

Base your answer to the question on the speech below and on your knowledge of social studies.

Good evening, my fellow citizens. This Government, as promised, has maintained the closest surveillance of the Soviet military build-up on the island of Cuba. Within the past week unmistakable evidence has established the fact that a series of offensive missile sites is now in preparation on that imprisoned island. The purposes of these bases can be none other than to provide a nuclear strike capability against the Western Hemisphere….— President John F. Kennedy, Report to

the American People, October 22, 1962

 

President John F. Kennedy reacted strongly to the situation described in this speech primarily because

(1) the United States feared an influx of Cuban refugees

(2) these missiles could threaten United States oil supplies in South America

(3) the location of Cuba would allow the United States little time to respond to an attack

(4) the United States and the Warsaw Pact nations had formed a military alliance

Bell Ringer: Analyze the quotes. Based on the quotes what were the causes of the Civil War?

            “…The South maintained with the depth of religious conviction that the Union formed under the Constitution was a Union of consent and not of force; that the original States were not the creatures but the creators of the Union; that these States had gained their independence, their freedom, and their sovereignty form the mother country…” -John B Gordon Confederate General Reminiscences of the Civil War

 

“[African Americans] had no rights which the white man was bound to respect; and that the negro might justly and lawfully be reduced to slavery for his benefit. He was bought and sold and treated as an ordinary article of merchandise, whenever profit could be made by it.” Chief Justice Taney, Dred Scott v. Sanford (1857)
