.... of the same fate as Salsedo. They were arrested in Brockton, Massachusetts and charged with armed robbery and murder that had taken place in a shoe factory. Nicola Sacco and Bartelemeo Vanzetti went on trial, were convicted, and spent seven years in prison while appeals went on, and while people all over the country became involved in their case. The pair had been ably defended by a Massachusetts lawyer named Thompson. He had argued to the trial judge that these men were being sentenced to death because they were anarchists and foreigners. Actually, there was evidence presented that Vanzetti was insane at the time of the crime. Commonwealth v. Sacco and V .....

.... went through many changes and the government was able to get a say in what businesses do and how the Stock Market works. The government kept the unemployed in some form of work so they were able to earn money and be able to contribute to the economy. That is why the economy did not fall to pieces, although the main reason for the United States getting out of the depression was WWII. The economy was doing great prior to the stock market crash. People were investing and the country was on the rise. But with such problems as bad investments, bad income distribution, bad banking, bad foreign trade, and over-expansion of credit the stock market crashed and .....

.... virtual hypertext network called the World Wide Web (WWW). The enhanced Internet was informally renamed the Web and a huge additional audience was created (Wendell 1997). With this audience came new ideas and concepts on just about any topic. One such topic was religion. Religion is a system of symbols that acts to establish powerful, pervasive, and long-lasting moods and motivations in people (Angrosino). The blending of the WWW and religion has created an explosion of information for all beliefs. This information explosion has been blamed for causing religion splint off’s (Wright).

.... the slaves overpowered the crew, killing all but two of the crew. The crew members left alive were kept to help the slaves navigate back to Africa, the slave's home. The two crew members tricked the slaves and sailed instead to the coast of America. The slaves had no knowledge of navigation, and since they could not speak or understand Spanish, they had no real way of communicating with the crew except for gestures, which were normally violent. Not knowing that they had been tricked, the ringleader of the slaves, Cinque, took a boatload of slaves ashore and unloaded. They refilled their water buckets, which had recently been emptied. One of the men on the .....

.... and South alike, consciousness of the need to combat racial discrimination grew. Support bubbled up from different social groups. Young people in particular, most of them students, enlisted in the effort to change restricted patterns deeply rooted in American life.

.... stated that it would not recognize any territorial gain made by force. Lastly, Japan had left the League of Nations, and began building up its navy. During these events, the United States attempted to stay neutral. One war that may have helped was the Nye committee. The Nye Committee investigated how the U.S. got involved in World War I. Many thought that by learning our previous mistakes, we would not repeat them. There was also the Neutrality Acts. The first neutrality act made it unlawful for the U.S. to ship or sell arms to countries where a state of war existed. Roosevelt and the U.S. congress had different views about isolationism.

.... honors only those lost, but that is incorrect. Maya Lin¹s design formed into the most unique memorial structure of its kind, which honors all who served in the Vietnam War (Colliers 23: 137). The official name given to the monument was the Vietnam Veterans memorial. In this name alone it is clear that it was not erected for the sole purpose of honoring only those who were lost in the conflict. The term KIA was the abbreviation used for those people who were killed in action, and these people represent 47,000 of the 58,000 names on the wall. The other 11,000 were soldiers who died from crashes, snake bites, illnesses, and other non-combat related deaths .....
