June 2010: US History

<p>a thread on here actually, look it up.</p>

<p>How did you find that thread?</p>

<p>What was the consensus on the Anne Hutchinson question and the Oil Embargo question?</p>

<p>The consensus on Anne Hutchinson seems to be that she defied the belief that only clergy can interpret scripture. Regardless of what she may have believed (inner conversion), she was kicked out of massachusettes for defying what the clergy believed, so just logically its just got to be that she defied the idea that its only the clergy.</p>

<p>Oil embargo is without a doubt pollution legislation from congress. Even though the windfall tax happened many years after the embargo originally started, the embargo went on for a long while, and there is not indication of any actual antipollution legislation.</p>

<p>i was looking for curves of june history tests in the past to see if there was any correlation and i came across a thread, rather like this one, from people in or out of college by now =)</p>

<p>You should find it again and post a link. :P</p>

<p>And thanks, wagsthedog! :)</p>

<p>i did up there ^^^, unfortunately i dont see any on there that we missed.</p>

<p>Regardless of what they decided upon 5 years ago, I stand by my assertion that it was skilled vs. unskilled. What evidence is there that it was economical vs. political?</p>

<h2>88. electric street cars - physical expansion of cities</h2>

<p>-we need to find those last two questions</p>

<p>-[Here</a> is the picture](<a href=“http://www.designer-daily.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/stop-communism.jpg]Here”>http://www.designer-daily.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/stop-communism.jpg) that said stop communism, for those who didn’t recall it. </p>

<p>-So those who are disagreeing with the AFL/KOL think that it was skilled v. unskilled instead of economics vs. politics?</p>

<p>THATS! what it said!! “It’s everybody’s job!”</p>

<p>and i am pretty sure its not skilled vs. unskilled because Knights of Labor weren’t unskilled: they were skilled, unskilled, blacks, and even women. many people in the knights of labor joined the AFL after it collapsed anyways so its not like they were adversaries really. but the only thing really political about the knights i read about was the bombing and their support of anti-immigration</p>

<p>Yes, the debate is that it was skilled v. unskilled instead of economic v. political</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Why is this debatable? The question asked for what aligned with Republic ideology/principles…only “free soil, free labor, free men” alligns with that.</p>

<p>^It needs to be changed then</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Do you remember what the question specifically asked?</p>

<p>but it wasnt like there was a union of only skilled vs. a union of only unskilled</p>

<p>I see A LOT of similar questions on the 2005 June SAT.</p>

<p>Yes but the AFL was only skilled versus the KOL which was both unskilled and skilled. The question was something along the lines of “what is the main difference between the AFL and the KOL” and I cant remember the exact wording of the answer.</p>

<p>@Sensei - me too. Seems like a bunch of questions get recycled</p>

<p>its debatable, but it wasnt that the difference was one was skilled the other was unskilled. it was mixed. idk, but if you take for an example this. you have two americans arguing against a frenchman and an american. the argument of the 3rd american isn’t going to be why the other 2 dont let french people in, it will be the reasons how and why the two groups’ goals are different, and what makes him group with the frenchman instead of other americans. (i.e. political goals)damn socialists
i just dont see how that was the main issue because they only coexisted for like 4 years and lots of the skilled people from the KoL eventually joined the AFL</p>

<p>haha funny example but it makes sense?</p>

<p>Are we talking about the difference between Knights of Labor and the AF of L? If so, I’m also pretty sure it’s skilled vs. unskilled, rather than economic vs. political. </p>

<p>This is what my book says:</p>

<p>“The AF of L thus established itself on solid but narrow foundations. Although attempting to speak for all workers, it fell far short of being representative of them. Composed of skilled craftsmen, like the carpenters and the bricklayers, it was willing to let unskilled laborers, including women and especially blacks, fend for themselves.”</p>

<p>Regarding the Knights of Labor, my books says, “a welcome mat was rolled out for the skilled and unskilled, for men and women, for whites and underprivileged blacks, some ninety thousand of whom joined.”</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I think the “skilled vs unskilled” answer wasn’t worded like that. I remember the “political vs. economic” was the best fit. KOL wanted to reform major political aspects of the system, while AFL wanted “bread and butter” economic changes.</p>
