Why did African Americans protest against school segregation? I saw this quote on one of their picket signs that said: "Don't treat our children like prisoners!" What does that mean? and how could that have related to segregation. Please help, I don't understand. Thank you so much. :]

i have to write a research paper for school on something/someone important during that time frame that had to do with the war or holocaust. To me, all of that is really boring. Someone else is already doing dr. mengele or whatever his name is,.. which is the only thing that really even interests me a little bit. Does anyone have a little known or perhaps widely known invention/person/incedent that i could write about?

I have a nickel plated whistle marked;
J.Hudson&co
13,Barr St
Birmingham

Patent
1904


The whistle is cylindrical and would be commonly recognised as a police whistle.
However,I have checked the website of the manufacturer,now called ACME and all whistles of this description manufactured for the police force,ARP and railways have markings indicative of the institution that they were used by.
This whistle has only the markings above and as far as I know they werent made for civilian use.
Could anyone explain who this whistle was made for?

Britain had already emancipated all the slaves in its colonies, by the Abolition Act of 1833. Wilberforce had been working towards this for half a century. Serfdom was abolished in Poland by Kosciusko in 1794. Russia did away with it in 1864, and this emancipated twenty times more people than the American emancipation achieved.

Slavery had been accepted as normal throughout human history. It is accepted in the Bible, both Old and New Testaments. It was the foundation for the economies of both Greece and Rome. The end of slavery was a worldwide human and Humanist achievement and Americans should not imagine that their latecoming jumping on the bandwagon was anything special. South Africa, often recognized as a racist society, had been slavery-free for decades before Lincoln issued his Emancipation Proclamation.

What are our kids being taught in school about the realities of history?

A picture would be good. If you can not find a picture, please give an explaination. It is for my World War I propaganda poster.

By the way, is this a good idea:
"You don't have to be a SOLDIER to slay the HUN."
[picture of a dead German soldier being stood on by a liberty bond with legs and arms holding up a sword]
"Liberty Bonds will defeat the Germans"
