When indentured servants got together to rebel for their rights that were being violated‚ the elite class of Virginia did not take a liking to this.

Introduction Pre trial publicity is a common element of a trial. However‚ it is more prevalent in a high profile trial.

Hayley is just stupid and I can’t believe that none of the interviewers or the audience that questioned Phoebe didn’t address the fact that Hayley was so unemotional towards her "friends" deaths.

Comp. of 1850: The significance of this compromise was that it‚ like a number of other actions‚ was an attempt to refuse the tensions that were leading to the Civil War. It is also significant to write that the Compromise failed to do this to any great extent. The Compromise of 1850 was meant to be like the Missouri Compromise. It was meant to calm sectional tensions. However‚ it was not able to do this. It failed to calm the tensions largely because of the inclusion of the Fugitive Slave Act
