<li><p>The Great Depression was immediately caused by thte crash of the stock market in 1929 on “Black Tuesday”, as a result of massive amounts of people selling their stocks. Long term causes included the uneven distribution of wealth in the 1920’s, extensive buying on credit, overproduction of goods, and poverty of the farmers. In retrospect, the 1920’s gave American’s a false sense of security and wealth. </p></li>
<li><p>the Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves in all states except the borderline slave states that remained in the union</p></li>
<li><p>“Waving the bloody flag” was a campaign strategy used by the Republicans following the Civil War. It represented the Union veterans fighting during the Civil War against Confederate rebels (and southern Democrats), and appealed to the voters’ emotions without really touching on real political issues. IT was widely used during the Gilded Age by the Republicans against the Democrats.</p></li>
