How a Bill Becomes a Law Creating laws is the U.S. House of Representatives’ most important job. All laws in the United States begin as bills. Before a bill can become a law, it must be approved by the U.S. House of Representatives, the U.S. Senate, and the President. Let’s follow a bill’s journey to become law. The Bill Begins Laws begin as ideas. These ideas may come from a Representative—or from a citizen like you. Citizens who have ideas for laws can contact their Representatives to discuss their ideas. If the Representatives agree, they research the ideas and write them into bills. The Bill Is Proposed When a Representative has written a bill, the bill needs a sponsor. The Representative talks with other Representatives about the bill in hopes of getting their support for it. Once a bill has a sponsor and the support of some of the Representatives, it is ready to be introduced. The Bill Is Introduced In the U.S. House of Representatives, a bill is introduced when it is placed in the hopper—a special box on the side of the clerk’s desk. Only Representatives can introduce bills in the U.S. House of Representatives. When a bill is introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, a bill clerk assigns it a number that begins with H.R. A reading clerk then reads the bill to all the Representatives, and the Speaker of the House sends the bill to one of the House standing committees. –"How Laws Are Made,” Office of the Clerk Read the passage.

Answer
African-American studies (also known as black studies) is an inter/multidisciplinary field that analyzes and treats the past and present culture, achievements, characteristics, and issues of people of African descent in North America, the diaspora, and Africa. The field challenges the sociohistorical and cultural content and definition of western ideology. African-American studies argues for a multicultural interpretation of the Western Hemisphere rather than a Eurocentric one. It has its earliest roots in history, sociology, literature, and the arts. The field's most important concepts, methods, and findings to date are situated within these disciplines.
More than one hundred and fifty years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, African Americans still struggle for a space in academia for a legitimate voice to express their interpretations and perspectives of their historical and contemporary experiences in Africa, the diaspora, and North America. Those in African-American studies argue not only that their voices have been marginalized, but that the history of African Americans' experiences and contributions to the United States has historically and systematically been missing from the texts and the curricula. Thus, African-American studies functions as a supplementary academic component for the sole purpose of adding the African experience to traditional disciplines.
Implicit to African-American studies is the notion that the black diasporic experience has been ignored or has not been accurately portrayed in academia or popular culture. From the earliest period of the field to the present, this movement has had two main objective: first, to counteract the effects of white racism in the area of group elevation; and second, to generate a stronger sense of black identity and community as a way of multiplying the group's leverage in the liberation struggle.
The Foundations of African-American Studies
The Atlanta University Conferences held from 1898 to 1914, under the auspices of W. E. B. DuBois, marked the inauguration of the first scientific study of the conditions of black people that covered important aspects of life (e.g., health, homes, the question of organization, economic development, higher education, common schools, artisans, the church, crime, and suffrage). It was during this period that African-American studies was formally introduced to the university and black academics initiated re-search studies.
One of the important goals of the scholars of this period was to counteract the negative images and representations of blacks that were institutionalized within academia and society. This was in response to the major tenet of social science research at this time that argued blacks were genetically inferior to whites and that Africa was a "dark continent" that lacked civilization. The American Negro Academy, founded in 1896, set as one of its major goals to assist, by publications, the vindication of the race from vicious assaults in all areas of learning and truth. In 1899 DuBois published a sociological study, The Philadelphia Negro. This landmark study highlighted the conditions of blacks in Philadelphia in the Seventh Ward. The study investigated the black experience as reflected in business, public education, religion, voluntary associations, and public health.
In 1915 the founding of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History (ASNLH) by Carter G. Woodson marked the beginning of a new era in African-American studies. The ASNLH was founded to promote historical research; publish books on black life and history; promote the study of blacks through clubs and schools; and bring harmony between the races by interpreting the one to the other. In 1916, Woodson founded the Journal of Negro History and served as its editor until his death. This was perhaps one of Woodson's greatest contributions to the area of African-American studies.
In 1926 Woodson and his colleagues launched Negro History Week. This event, which later evolved into a whole month, was not intended to be the only time of the year in which Negro history was to be celebrated and taught. Woodson and his colleagues viewed this as a time to highlight the ongoing study of black history that was to take place throughout the year.
It was during this time that historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) began to respond to the scholarly activities in history and social science. It was becoming clear that black education should conform to the social conditions of black people. Black colleges began to add courses in black history to their curricula; this corresponded with the call by black college students for a culturally relevant curriculum, a theme that reoccurred later with greater political influence.

Why do you think education reform stopped when the civil war began?
Answer:
Explanation:
Think about the nature of war.
All the young people are syphoned off to go fight the war.Some are killed but many are injured. Do you think they are thinking very much about education, when their reality is so much deeper than what the books used in education are.People in the regions where a war is fought lack stability that education requires. Once the Jews were in ghettos, one of their first priorities was to set up an education system. They need stability before that could happen. The environment was terrible, but at least they were in one place. Armies don't have that stability very often and again they had much deeper things to consider.what was one of Bryan's major campaign talking points
Answer:
One of Bryan's major campaign talking points was his speech on bimetallism or "free silver".
Explanation:
William Jennings Bryan was a Democratic Congressman from Nebraska who unsuccessfully attempted to become the President of the United States during the election of 1896. He was a silent and minor character in the party, who became famous for his oratory skills, more because of his "Cross of Gold" speech.
One of his major talking points was to support "bimetallism", or "free silver" that will enable the nation to prosper without harming the people. His famous quote "you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold" shows his opposition to the government's systems or laws which he greatly wanted to change according to his own standards and beliefs. According to his plan, the country should use silver to back the farmers and their products so that that'll help ease their debt burden.

Were the Founding Fathers justified in rebelling against the British government and declaring independence?
In a well-developed essay that includes an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion, explain whether or not the Founding Fathers were justified in declaring independence. Be sure to address counterclaims in your essay and include reasons and evidence to support your argument.
(here is the essay)
Imagine you are part of the colonies in 1765 and the Stamp Act was just enacted. You're enraged so you go along with the constant chant of "Taxation without representation is tyranny". Soon, chants for representation turn to chants of complete separation! These chants lead to mass anarchy with people declaring their right to be free from Britain.
Declaring independence was justified especially after the Intolerable Acts. The British passed several laws such as the Boston Port Act, Massachusetts Government Act, Administration of Justice Act, and the Quebec Act just to name a few .These atrocious laws required the colonies to do things such as closing the port of Boston, having its royally-appointed governor have wide-ranging powers,and granted emancipation for the Catholic, French-speaking settlers of the province.While some may say that the war was justified in declaring independence was not. The British were the first ones to fire, sparking the war therefore making it justified. maybe considered Declaring independence was not justified given they could have stayed and then everything would have stayed the same.
However looking at the details you can see that declaring independence was very much justified particularly because they wanted to get away from the Intolerable Acts and the Boston Massacre and they had every right to.
In conclusion the Founding Fathers were very much justified in rebelling against the British as well as declaring Independence. ideaz
