Answer from: lisnel

Malcolm X calls uncle Sam a hypocrite because Uncle Sam declared themselves as the Land of Freedom, but America isn't living free. "Not only is he a crook, he's a hypocrite... Uncle Sam, with the blood of your and my mothers and fathers on his hands, with the blood dripping his jaws LIKE a bloody-jawed wolf"He thought that this provided a negative image of the residence of this country about the true meaning of freedom. His statement about Uncle Sam is impressive; he tries to claim that Uncle Sam’s hands are dripping with the blood of the African American. He then calls Uncle Sam a hypocrite by how he stands as the leader of freedom yet African American’s are not free.
Uncle Sam is a personification of the US government. Comparing Uncle Sam to a wolf helps the audience to view the government as ruthless and inhuman.

sorry

i do knot know this

Answer from: Quest

here are some major conflicts i found. maybe pick one and do more research on it. (cause i ain't writing 6 paragraphs)

in 1877, the nez perce war took place.

1881 - president james garfield was assassinated.

1882 - the chinese exclusion act was passed.

1883 - a decision in the civil rights cases legalized racial segregation in the united states.

1887 - the dawes act was passed.

1893 - the panic of 1893 took place. (what a creative name)

and there are probably other topics you can find if you just search up "united states timeline," or "conflicts in the 19th century for america."

then once you find a topic you like find out how it affected the people of america and what not. (sorry if this feels a bit short changed, history was and never will be one of my strong topics)
