1. Red Cloud says that the government has driven them into a very little land. They have also killed and ill trated the Native Americans, as well as tricked them by getting them to sign papers that they did not understand.
2. I dont really understand what this is asking... but whatever. Railroads were becoming more expensive to shpi things on so that was one reason that farm profits declined. This "robbed them of their selling and buying market". The something about land that i dont understand. (hey that rhymes.. :D)
3. I think....It was not supposed to abolish or support slavery. Since seperation didnt necessarily imply that one race was betetr then the other, the "seperate but equal" law seemed like it would avoid all conflict with the fourteenth amendment.
4. Justice Harlan found that the sperate but equal law interfered with personal freedoms of citizens. He felt that there was no reason for the races to be seperated.
5. WHAT!?!? what is this asking of me?
Is this a blog assignment or is this supposed to be written on looseleaf? I'm doing it on looseleaf.
1. Red Cloud, Chief of the Teton Siox tribe, states that the government has driven them to places where food is very scarce. Also he clames that they are being ill treated and even killed. They signed papers they did not understand dealing with land. They were utterally fooled.
2. Tracy is blaming the decline in farm products on the high prices per capita to transport goods. The farm things probably did not do well because of the area they were in aswell as overfarming.
3. The Plessy Vs. Ferguson Case was a case against slaves rights. They ruled that Louisianas, "seperate but equal" as a reasonable regulation because, ".. it is competent for a state to regulate the enjoyment of their civil rights soley upon the basis of race."
4. Justice Harlan found that the seperate but equal law interfered with basic human rights written down in the Magna Carta. He felt that there was no reason for the races to be seperated.
5. To many who have looked at this question they might answer it was to much government action. Yes it did give African Americans some basic human rights but with every positive theres a negative. With the African Americans free, Natives were treated less than human now. So history is in the eye of the beholder.
