41. A Black Perspective Of American History
    A Black Perspective of american history. By Leon Dixon, Gerald Hynes, The roaring twenties The Depression to World War II World War II  
    http://www.duboislc.org/BlackPerspective/BlackPerspectiveContents.html
    
    Extractions: A Black Perspective of American History By Leon Dixon, Gerald Hynes, and Carolyn Gaines Nelson This endeavor is an attempt to show how the events and flow of American history affected and were effected by Black people. It is written from a Black perspective. It is hoped that the reader will discern trends and patterns, such as, how Black folks were co-opted to deal with certain events and issues and were ruthlessly discarded when they were no longer beneficial (e.g. reconstruction, populist movement, and all of the major wars). It should also be noted how the Black population enlarged in certain areas of the country as laborers were needed (e.g. the ante-bellum south, the northern ghettos during the world wars). In addition to this, special attention should be paid to the cause and effects that the economy and economics of the times had on Black folks. It is hoped that this undertaking can provide for teachers and parents basic reference material for helping to include the causes, effects, and contributions of Black folk throughout American history. We have not tried to profile any persons, but rather dealt with trends and social phenomena.

    Extractions: AMERICAN HISTORY THE ROARING TWENTIES *For Americans the 1920s were a time of great prosperity. Manufacturing was booming, Liberty Bonds were paying interest, and there was plenty of work in the cities. People were able to enjoy movies, new styles of music, and new products they had not known before, many of them taking advantage of electric power. *The 1920s saw the first shopping centres, the first fast food restaurants, and the first billboards. *What made all this consumption possible was the idea of buying on credit or the instalment plan. This was new to Americans, who had traditionally been a thrifty, cautious race, saving their money against a rainy day (in part because they knew the government would not bail them out of a tight spot). Now, however, manufacturers and stores offered to let consumers make a down payment, and then pay a little bit every month (with interest, which was usually high). Factories did this because they were producing good faster than people could buy them, and businesses needed a way to sell them and make some money off them, or else they would go out of business. In the short run this seemed good for Americans, as people had luxuries they had never before enjoyed, but in the long run it created a debt-ridden nation. *Possibly the greatest icon of both new and affordable luxury and the ease with which such things were produced in mass quantities was the Ford Model T, available in any colour you wanted, as long as it was black. Using Taylor-style efficiency plans, Ford adapted the assembly line for his factories, allowing each worker to do one task repeatedly as automobiles in progress moved past him on the line. This let Ford build automobiles faster and cheaper than anyone ever had before, until he could eventually produce cars cheap enough that his workers, who at $5 a day were among the best paid factory-workers in the world, could afford them. By 1911 a Model T cost $390.

    http://www.kentlaw.edu/ilhs/curricul.htm
    
    Extractions: [Table of Contents] The United States has the bloodiest history of labor of any industrialized nation on Earth. It is a story rich in human drama and tragedy. It is also one of progress and hope. This is a resource that teachers of United States history can use to incorporate our rich social and labor history into their courses. Using the ideas employed here teachers will increase student understanding of the American economic system and the important issues we all face as workers today. The concepts and lessons will build on each other so that at the end of the school year the student should have a working knowledge of the importance of labor in society. A guiding theme of this work is how laborers have earned a voice in the workplace and increased their share of the economic pie. Teachers should highlight the stark contrast between today's working environment and the relationship between workers and owners of the past. The scope of United States history has been divided into eleven basic periods. These will correspond with the unit divisions that many modern textbook companies use. In each period the main events and issues of US labor history are introduced. Concepts, ideas and resources are presented to aid the teacher. In several of the units specific lessons are available for immediate use.
