@ErinCSaunders1 And to think that during their transition, these colonies didn’t want to adopt the ways of North America. Yet it seems that that is exactly what happened. #h1170
@truiz2112 After independence very little changed for them. The ideas of colonialism still existed well after independence. I believe some people still try to employ them in our current time. #h1170
@LauraCera14 When I read this it didn’t surprise me. However I found it fascinating that in Brazil they teach kids in school about “tiradentes”. #h1170
@LauraCera14 All it took was the first men taking action to inspire others to the same. Soon revolts all over were taking place.#h1170
@ErinCSaunders1 At the same time this made it harder for the lower class to keep up with the demand of goods, making it harder for them to pay their tributes and paying high taxes. All this eventually leading to the movements of independence. #h1170
I believe that Once independence was attained in the Ameicas, the real struggle for many Latin Americans only started. #h1170
Sadly, now I feel that people use that day as an excuse to party, instead of really understanding the meaning behind it. #h1170
Growing up in Mexico, I remember once going to “ oír el grito de independencia “ or to hear the cry for independence. It was a September 16th, and people gathered to hear the mayor yell- “Viva Mexico “ - and everyone would repeat the same. #h1170
The Haitian Revolution was the first successful takeover by African slaves, and it also inspired and motivated other leaders of Latin American independence to take action. #h1170
I was never a big fan of the rapper Tupac, but it was very interesting finding out the meaning behind his name. He was named after Tupac Amaru- the Inca who fought for freedom and just treatment of his people. #h1170
Casta paintings were supposed to classify one by how mixed you were. Depending on the clothes one wore, and what one was depicted doing, they could tell how much Spanish blood you had. #h1170
One of the biggest changes of the eighteenth century was the growth of mixed-race populations. The Castas population grew dramatically making up a large portion of Latin America. #h1170
It never crossed my mind how mining had an effect on Mother Earth. It disturbed thousands of square miles, affecting rivers, and deforestation to be able to tend to the needs of the miners. #h1170
Being part of the military gave freed blacks a way to better themselves socially and allowed them to be part of a community. #h1170
Does not surprise me that alcohol was already a problem in the colonial years, even back then, mixing alcohol and violence did not end well for anyone. #h1170
As plebeians (slaves and freed blacks) it was harder to protect the honor and reputation of their female family members. This would bring more danger to themselves just for being plebeians. #h1170
Scary that if a male wasn’t willing to “act like a man”, that would make their female family members more of a target for sexual attacks, and demeaning comments. #h1170
When men didn’t defend themselves from the challenges their peers presented, they were bullied by other men. This was just like it is today, when someone is bullied in school, and you don’t defend yourself, you get bullied even more. #h1170
It seems to me that the church not wanting to hear the totality of your sins, sort of backfired on them when they were trying to make sure that no foundling that was related would end up marrying each other. #h1170
