Module 6 Short Responses – Question 1 Which source will you analyze using active reading strategies? Include the name of the article, the author, the publication, the date, and where you found it. Read your chosen source using the active reading strategies you learned on the previous page. Then, summarize the overall meaning and content of the reading. Write your summary below. Your summary should be at least one paragraph long. The article I will be analyzing was published in the Independent newspaper on October 17, 1924 and was titled 'What Women Have Done with the Vote'. It was written by Carrie Chapman Catt and was found on the Library of Congress website. Image 2 of Carrie Chapman Catt Papers: Speech and Article File, 1892-1946; Articles; "What Women Have Done with the Vote," The Independent, Oct. 17, 1924 | Library of Congress (loc.gov) To summarize the article, it provides an overview of the aftermath of the passing of the 19th Amendment. It states that the 19th amendment passing allowed women to vote and states what had changed since women voters came into the system. The article also briefly covers the political effects of women voting as well as the reasoning as to why men did not want women to be able to vote. Again, to summarize, the article covers the aftermath of the 19th amendment as well as the social and political effects that the 19th amendment caused. Module 6 Short Responses – Question 2 What events or historical forces contributed to the Boston busing crisis of the mid- 1970s? Name at least three, and briefly explain why you think each one was a contributory cause of the Boston busing crisis. I think one of the major historical forces that contributed to the Boston busing crisis was the Brown v Board of Education case. If school had never been desegregated, then the Boston busing crisis would never have existed. Another possible event that contributed to the Boston busing crisis was both de jure and de facto segregation. Even after segregation was mandated, some states both laws into effect to prevent desegregation. It was the social norm to be segregated and thus, the people did not want change and highly resisted it until forced. A third cause of the Boston busing crises was the passing of the Civil Rights Act. This gave more power to black citizens and increased the movement to desegregate the country. Module 6 Short Responses – Question 3 Name three specific consequences of the Boston busing crisis. One specific consequence of the Boston busing crisis was a negative impact on learning. Many children were absent and did not receive a proper education. Another consequence of

the Boston busing crisis was the decrease of white students in the area. During and after the Boston busing crisis, the number of white students decreased. The third consequence of the Boston busing crisis was an increase of racial violence and racial tensions. People were so uncomfortable with desegregation that they had to be ordered by law. The uncomfortable tension soon turned to the violence of both students and families. Module 6 Short Responses – Question 4 Describe one cause of the event you have chosen for your historical analysis (keeping in mind that there are many), and explain one piece of evidence from your research that you will use to support this assertion. Describe one consequence of the event, and explain one piece of evidence from your research that you will use to support this assertion. One possible cause of the increase in domestic violence in the 1900's was the Equal Rights Amendment as well as the 19th Amendment that allowed women to vote. Evidence I have discovered that support this assertion is the fact that, "In the past, the American criminal justice system did not perceive domestic violence as a crime, not even a problem. Even with the women's rights movement in the late 1800's, women continued to be abused by their husbands, fathers, and boyfriends... (Johnson 2002". This quote elucidates the impression the beating women was considered a family matter. This also reveals the possibility that statistics of domestic violence may be skewed due to it being so commonplace. One consequence of the Equal Rights Movement being passed was the increase of domestic violence. Men did not like that women were garnering for rights and even some women didn't like it. Luckily, after the Equal Rights Amendment passed, domestic violence was soon seen as unacceptable. Johnsons states, "As the years progressed, domestic violence in American society began to be seen as a violent criminal act (Johnson 2002)". As the Equal Rights Amendment passed, it caused a consequent increase in domestic violence as well as the materials to make domestic violence an actual crime. Johnson, R. (2002, April).
