.... of the colony, the colonists were even more angered, because they did not agree with the governor’s thinking. They attempted to boycott stores that bought from England. Caught up in the patriotism, young boys would throw dirt, oyster shells, and dirt at those who went into the stores. On February 22, 1770, eleven-year-old Christopher Snider, was doing just that, when he was shot in the chest and stomach. The men who had killed him were put into jail. In support, two thousand people lined the streets as Christopher’s coffin was being carried to the burial ground.7 Not more than three weeks later, on the evening of M .....

.... stated that " It (the government) can afford to trust him with a vote as safely as it trusted him with a bayonet." At this time they did not have full protection from the courts, nor did the courts receive a black person’s testimony. In 1865, the blacks did not receive homesteads promised to them by the government. They struggled for the right to purchase land. It seemed unfair to them that a person that was a former rebel could regain the land they owned before the civil war, yet the African Americans, who were good, loyal citizens of the United States still could not purchase a homestead. In 1863, Abraham Lincoln finalized th .....

.... on a few Beatles' records and, I must say, they are rather attractive and flashy. One particular cover that I was able to view is an album that went unreleased due to its picture. On the cover there is a photograph of The Beatles in a butcher shop with carcasses hanging around them; it certainly caught the eye. On another album, the boys were all dressed up in Spanish bullfighter uniforms that were gaudy enough to catch the eye of a blind man. The sounds that the ear hears in a song are without a doubt important to the person's opinion of that song. To examine the sound of the instruments, I played the Anthology music through .....

.... by causing people to leave rural sectors and move to the cities looking for a better life. The increase in population in the cities caused overcrowding, pollution, and thus became a breeding ground for communicable diseases. Cities had a snowballing effect developing new business. New and improved transportation systems evolved. The developments in transportation played an important role in industrialization. Growing cities necessitated investments to be made in improving infrastructure, including roads, bridges, and canals. This paved the way for industrialization which needed an efficient system to transport mass amounts o .....

.... by invading Pennsylvania via Maryland in an attempt to end the war quickly by threatening the Northern capitol and waging "total war" on the Northern citizens. Unfortunately for Lee, Stuart's joyriding, Stuart delighted in riding complete circles around the Northern armies and hence all of the public recognition and attention, left him blind, without any clue as to the whereabouts, intentions, strengths, or capabilities of the Union Army of the Potomac. Unbeknownst to him, Meade was marching straight for him with almost 82,000 men and, more importantly, a competent and mission-oriented calvary commander in John Buford. T .....

.... died in 479 B.C.E., before such a change ever took place. However, he succeeded in winning over a handful of devote followers who continued his legacy and Confucianism later went on to become one of the most influential thought systems of Chinese history. Of his followers, Mencius and Xunzi became the most renown. Since Confucius did not succeed in completing a manual of his views, these followers had to derive their own interpretations of the system which now formulate, the Analects. The Analects portray an idealized gentleman, and his various duties in terms of the society, family and the rituals. Confucius explains ab .....

.... the French Revolution was used as a term of abuse. At this time, during the Reign of Terror in particular, France was moving toward a more republican form of government. During their attempt at the Republic of Virtue Catholicism was a focal point of attack. These attacks ended up fueling divisions that in the end proved to be fatal for the republican government. What some people saw as the future, others disliked and associated it with “modernity.” Hence, the concept of “modernity’s” use as an abusive phrase. However, at the close of the French Revolution, “modernity” took on a new use. In the nineteenth centu .....

.... were full of emotion and drama. It played an important role in the development of opera and involved piano and voice duets. The contrast between Romantic and Classical is that woman usually sang the latter. On the other hand men mostly sang Romantics. From 1900 onwards came diversity. Opera expanded into different areas with once such area being called atonal. As with many of these styles, the Germans devised this and it was a great strain to the singers. Atonal was made up of non-singing things like shouting, whispering, screaming, muttering and laughing. Once such 20th century vocal performance in this style was Verklaerte Nacht .....

.... meeting each other head on. Originally, Stalingrad hadn't really been an objective. It became one however after Hitler grew to have a personal obsession with it. It being named after Stalin himself, his enemy, made it a conquest he had to take on. The loss at Stalingrad could be partially blamed on Hitler himself. He withdrew into a shell during this period, concentrating on nothing more than the city. In the meantime, allowing for things to crumble around him. Fortunately for Hitler, an equally obsessive leader faced him. Stalin had a similar obsession with Moscow, and it's defense. Though it isn't debatable whether or not Mosc .....
