African Americans history before 1877 | Online Homework Aiders

Can you help me understand this History question?

First watch the PBS video:

Reconstruction: A Moment In The Sun : www.pbs.org/video/2365472571/

How successful was Reconstruction? What measures were created to assist the Freedmen? Give examples of how the ex-slave society tried to stop the advancement of African Americans after the Civil War. This post must be 300 words.

Use your readings (and perhaps a little more research) to fully understand and answer the following questions.

Today the Emancipation Proclamation is one of the most cherished and celebrated documents from the history of the United States? Define the Emancipation Proclamation and discuss its significance during the era? Why did Lincoln propose this measure and what was its effect on society? This post must be 300 words.

A new movement has started since the early 2000s, where some political groups are trying to remove American history from our children’s school curriculum and textbooks, specifically slave history. However, these groups also do not want to cover segregation or civil rights. By removing the history that we have just covered in these last eight weeks, the African American communities are denied their connections to American History. Recently, African Americans have created movements such as “Black Lives Matter” to counteract these other groups. Many tie slave history to the development of segregation and racism that has spread throughout our country. A Historical Trauma has affected generations of African Americans because of what their ancestors had to endure just to survive in this country. This distrust has developed towards different groups, agencies and organizations. For those who are not affected, trying to understand what it means to be an African American in the United States showcases the need for this history to be taught in all schools and to every American.

Your final forum is to prepare an essay (letter to the editor or written speech) that would explain to all of America why African American History from the Atlantic Slave Trade To Reconstruction should be taught.

Explain why every American should know African American history. You will be expected to use specific facts, events and people that you have learned from this course therefore refrain from adding content that pertains to historical content after Reconstruction.

These facts, events, and people must come from your required work this term and from research in the library or from the course bibliography.

In your speech, demonstrate the breadth of knowledge you have gained from this work. Do not forget to use in text citations because you will be using multiple sources.
