    Billy Barkerville Research Paper

    Barkerville is one of the most, if not the most well known historic towns in British Columbia. It was the largest town in the Cariboo, conveniently located on the western edge of the Cariboo Mountains. It grew rapidly, before suddenly becoming almost forgotten, with a ghost town emerging in its place. How could such a thriving town, that was so full of life, be forgotten, to be allowed to die??The tale of Barkerville began with a young sailor form England; Billy Barker. After some time searching, he finally struck it rich in eighteen- sixty two when he uncovered gold in Williams Creek in the Cariboo area. The news of his finding spread like wild fire, and miners flocked to the area, hoping that they too might strike it rich. The miners travelled to the area and found the town newly christened as…

    President Davis Research Paper

    The presence and role of President Davis is somewhat questionable. Two out the three accounts places President Davis in Capitol Square, however, in Sallie Putnam the President is not mentioned. The absence of President Davis in Sallie Putnam’s book is very noticeable. Putnam’s omission of President Davis raised numerous questions. One would think that the presence of the President would be worth noting. So why did she not write that Davis was there? Did she not personally like Davis? But, in reexamining both Varina Davis and John Jones’ retellings of the Richmond bread riot, I discovered that both authors may have written biased accounts. In Jones’ A Rebel War Clerk’s Diary, he wrote that “I did not follow, to see what they did” but he learned about the incident an hour later. Since Jones was not…

    Sam Phillips Research Paper

    I chose Sam Phillips for my producer because I love the blues and “rock and roll” and he played and important role in this area of the music industry. Sam Phillips inspires me to be more creative and to think outside the box when creating music. I think that's what music is all about. Sam not only broke down racial barriers in the music industry but really tested the limits of blues and helped and influenced the creation of “rock and roll”. He was a talent scout during the early stage of his career and I think talent scouts care more about music than even some musicians.…

Once civil rights leaders such as Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. starting organizing mass protests on Washington D.C. within the black community, many white southerners became concerned.
