Watergate Scandal

The Watergate scandal was a political scandal during the 1970s in the United States resulting from the break-in of theDemocratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, D.C., and the Nixon administration's attempted cover-up of its involvement. Effects of the scandal eventually led to the resignation of Richard Nixon, the President of the United States, on August 9, 1974; the only resignation of a U.S. President. The scandal also resulted in the indictment, trial, conviction and incarceration of 43 people including dozens of top Nixon administration officials.

William Joseph Simmons

William Joseph Simmons (May 6, 1880 – May 18, 1945) was the founder of the second Ku Klux Klan on Thanksgiving Night of 1915.Convalescing after being hit by an automobile in 1915, Simmons concerned himself with rebuilding the Klan, which he had seen depicted in the newly released film The Birth of a Nation. He obtained a copy of the Reconstruction Klan's "Prescript," and used it to write his own prospectus for a reincarnation of the organization. He delayed his plans until the media-inspired lynching of Leo Frank, the accused murderer of Mary Phagan. This incident became a flash point for anti-Semitic feeling in Georgia. Frank was taken from prison and hanged by a mob who lynched him on August 16, 1915. The lynch mob called themselves the Knights of Mary Phagan, and on October 16, 1915 they climbed Stone Mountain and burned a giant cross that was visible throughout the city. The imagery of the burning cross, which had not existed in the original Klan, had been introduced via The Birth of a Nation. The film, in turn, had obtained the image from the works of Thomas Dixon, Jr. He had taken his inspiration from Scottish clans, who had burned crosses as a method of signalling from one hilltop to the next. The image also occurs in Lady of the Lake by Walter Scott.

Turning America's Conscious Against the Sins of Slavery

"Slavery was the rallying for northern progressives who wanted massive social change, a salient issue that crystallized complex social and economic differences between the North and the South". The abolition movement was created to bring a halt to slavery. Anti-slavery movements have been used to stop these slavery systems which have created problems across the world. Slavery was the process of people being bought and sold forced to work by there masters. Although slavery have been abolished in the constitution it is still very much alive. Children and women are the most targeted in modern day slavery as they are being forced to things against there will. Children are being forced to work in harsh and small areas in which adults can't reach and women are being sold for prostitution. This modern day slavery relates to the history of slavery as it is repeating itself. We the people need to fight for what we believe to abolish slavery for good. This is where journalism comes in as America is covering up for the coverage of slavery. Journalist need to step in and provide the truth against slavery and show the world whats really happening. We must fight to be free without blood being shed but instead use our KNOWLEDGE of history to overthrow the government.

What We Don't Know Wont Hurt U.S .... Right ?

DID YOU KNOW?
According to the National Human Rights Center in Berkeley, California, there are currently about 10,000 forced laborers in the U.S., around one-third of whom are domestic servants and some portion of whom are children. In reality, this number could be far higher due to the difficulty in getting exact numbers of victims, due to the secretive nature of human trafficking. On the other hand, it could be far lower - and possibly approach zero - since there are virtually no arrests for this in the country, despite great attention paid to it by many NGOs and by law enforcement agencies. In addition, the US government only keeps a count of survivors, defined as victims of severe instances of human trafficking, who have been assisted by the government in acquiring immigration benefits. The reports, based on interviews in California and in Egypt, that trafficking of children for domestic labor in the U.S. is an extension of an illegal but common practice in Africa. Families in remote villages send their daughters to work in cities for extra money and the opportunity to escape a dead-end life. Some girls work for free on the understanding that they will at least be better fed in the home of their employer. This custom has led to the spread of trafficking, as well-to-do Africans accustomed to employing children immigrate to the U.S.

Modern Day Slavery

Slavery is still in full effect across the globe. Humans are being trafficked around the world being held captive by there masters. They are being processed like barcodes being scanned and being shipped off to there location. The illegal trade of human beings needs to be stopped as we the people have a right to live free and have self-governing lives.

THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD TO FREEDOM

                                                              Harriet Tubman (1820 – 1913) was an African-American abolitionist, humanitarian, and Union spy during the American Civil War. After escaping from slavery, into which she was born, she made thirteen missions to rescue more than 70 slaves^[ using the network of antislavery activists and safe houses known as the Underground Railroad.The Underground Railroad was an informal network of secret routes and safe houses used by 19th-century black slaves in the United States to escape to free states and Canada with the aid of abolitionists and allies who were sympathetic to their cause The term is also applied to the abolitionists, both black and white, free and enslaved, who aided the fugitives.Other various routes led to Mexico or overseas Created in the early 19th century, the Underground Railroad was at its height between 1850 and 1860 One estimate suggests that by 1850, 100,000 slaves had escaped via the "Railroad".^[5] British North America, where slavery was prohibited, was a popular destination, as its long border gave many points of access. More than 30,000 people were said to have escaped there via the network at its peak,^[6] although U.S. Census figures account for only 6,000. The Underground Railroad fugitives' stories are documented in the Underground Railroad Records.

Abraham Lincoln

Slavery is founded on the selfishness of man's nature -- opposition to it on his love of justice. These principles are in eternal antagonism; and when brought into collision so fiercely as slavery extension brings them, shocks and throes and convulsions must ceaselessly follow.

WILLIAM STILL

WILLIAM STILL (1821-1902), abolitionist, writer, and businessman. Still was born near Medford, in Burlington County, N.J. His father, Levin Steel, was a former slave who had purchased his own freedom and changed his name to Still to protect his wife Sidney, who had escaped from slavery in Maryland. After her first escape attempt had failed she ran to her husband with two of their four children and changed her name to Charity. Their son William was the youngest of eighteen children. Still found employment in the office of the Pennsylvania Society for the Abolition of Slavery. His duties were janitorial and clerical, but he soon became involved with aiding fugitives from slavery. He was in a unique position to provide board and room for many of the fugitives who rested in Philadelphia before resuming their journey to Canada. One of those former slaves turned out to he his own brother, Peter Still, left in bondage by his mother when she had escaped forty years earlier. William Still later reported that finding his brother led him to preserve the careful records concerning former slaves which provided valuable source material for his book The Underground Railroad
