.... did not think to use them as slave labor. Instead, they imported poor, white indentured servants from Europe to clear forests and cultivate fields. It was the English colonists that incited the idea of using Black slaves. They could be caught easily because of their color and they could be bought and kept until they died.

.... there is a group, among them will be at least man involved in World War II. Roosevelt, Churchill, Tojo and Hitler -especially Hitler - are all candidates for the group because of their involvements in the bloodiest wars of the twentieth century. In this world,blood is a hard thing to forget about. Which ones, and in what light they'll be remembered in depends entirely on the biases of historians and the abilities of governments to cover up the embarrassing moments blemishing the memories of their leaders. So if the United States is still around and as powerful as now in five centuries .....

.... the people and they wanted a new system of government. The writings of the philosophes such as Voltaire and Diderot, were critical of the government.

.... were ripe for National Union Organization. Jerry Borenstein states in his work, Unions In Transition, " They were often loosely organized associations, which were quite short-lived and likely to disappear under hostile pressure from employers and government." (15) The unions of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were formed largely to protect basic human dignity in the work place. Unions addressed basic concerns regarding safety issues, length of work day and wage. They were largely unsuccessful due to the public perception of unions as Socialistic as well as anti American.

.... saints, and the apostles. The emperor was believed to be divinely sanctioned by god. Human figures were portrayed in sculptures in two different styles. One style expressed power, authority, and grandeur. The other style expresses adoration, sympathy, prayer, and distress.

This town was a stopping point on the trade routes. The chalices were used to hold wine during the Liturgy. Upright frontal figure .....

.... if they could still see the flag that the United States still was holding their ground. This gave Key some ideas for , because at times in the battle he could not see the American flag through the mist, and drizzle, even though the night was lit by ‘the bombs bursting in air.’ In the morning to his relief, Key saw that the American flag was still flying above Fort McHenry. He took out a letter that he had in his pocket to write down the ideas that came to him that night. Later he rewrote the poem and some people seemed to think that he wrote it to the tune “To Anacreon in Heaven,” .....

.... started to collect instead of play music. A persons hands and feet were the first of all the instruments and is still the most common, because every one has them. A persons hands and feet were readily available, and easy to use. The drum is the second most common percussion instrument. Like most of the other instruments the drum was found by accident when someone hit a hallow log with a stick. The hallowed out stumps then became drums that were decorated. Drums were used for war or for signaling over long distances. The drum was a common instrument because it was so easy to use; all they .....
