Consider these two historical figures. It is clear that history holds many unsavory truths about modern day place names and institutions, such as Lane Community College, whose namesake ran as vice president of the pro-slavery ticket in the election of 1860 against Abraham Lincoln. Also, Stanford University, although a prestigious institution, has a founder who participated in racism against the Chinese in California in the 19th Century, and who bribed government officials in support of his railroad business.

Estimations of the number of buffalo that were killed in the last half of the 19th Century vary widely. From the Native American video point of view, the number is 60,000,000. From a more "traditional" documentary on the West, and a former textbook used by your instructor, the number used was 15,000,000. Even the internet comes in with a commonly accepted number of 40,000,000. Regardless of the variance, the numbers do, in fact, present students with the dilemma of historical bias, with the effect being a greater tragedy if the higher numbers are believed to be accurate.

This included racial nativism, as depicted by the treatment of the Chinese, Native Americans, and African-Americans. The anti-radical strain of nativism became evident as some workers, attempting to organize unions, became too violent and were influenced by anarchists and socialists. Even anti-Catholic nativism was evident with the involvement of Sunday beer drinking, non-Protestant ethnic groups and the labor strife of the late 19th Century.{TRUE# } // question: 11403345 name: Many public school students are taught that the history of American culture is like a melting pot.

Lincoln believed that the South had no right to secede, and that this violation was the work of individual state leaders. Therefore, he assumed it was his job as President, with the Constitutional executive power to issue pardons, to be the authority during the Reconstruction Period. Congress, on the other hand, believe the South had in fact seceded. Now, as territories, it would be the role of Congress to use its Constitutional power to admit new states to the Union. The Wade-Davis Bill, with its punitive treatment of the former rebels, is the best example of what came to be known as Presidential Reconstruction, while the 10% Plan would best describe the Radical Republican's plan for Congressional Reconstruction.{FALSE# } // question: 11403333 name: This advertisement is a modern equivalent to farmer cooperatives that were formed in the 19th Century to protest unfair treatment farmers received at the hands of the government, railroads, and distributors of their perishable crops.
