Protests, Riots and Civil Unrest

A riot is violent public disorder. For example, the famine led to widespread bread riots. A revolution means a real change in the political system, for example, the FrenchRevolution, the Russian Revolution. The word is also used figuratively in the sense of drastic change, as in the Industrial Revolution.

An organized refusal to buy a product or service is called a boycott. Boycotts are organized to express dissatisfaction with a company and to attempt to force the company to change its practices.

When government is not responding to the petitions of the people.

They thought it was unfair that England was taxing them so much money for such small things. They refused to buy sugar and stamps and I think they may have even tried to make their own natural sugar.

I believe that if the government is corrupt and not doing its job that the people have the right and responsibility to take up arms and remove the corrupt government. Like when Suddam Hussein was running Iraq, we went in and help the people of that country take up arms and free themselves from the bad government and instate a new democratic government.

While Northerners were renewed in their belief that the war would soon end, the largest riots in American history broke out in New York City. The riots were in response to the the implementation of the Union's conscription laws in March of 1863. The riots began in this Democrat controlled city on July 13, 1863. Many believed the Union's draft laws were unfair. Here is some background on the insurrection:

A. Many Democrats in the North opposed the Union's incursions on the Constitutional rights of Union citizens. President Lincoln had suspended many rights on the basis that in wartime exceptional steps were needed to win the war;

B. The draft was due to the fact that voluntary Northern enlistments were waning and to maintain the military strength of the Union a draft was required;

C. The draft laws were seen as totally inconsistent with American values in that a person could escape the draft by giving the Union a $300 exemption pass;

D. The other way for Northerners to avoid the draft was to find another person to take the draftee's place;

E. Irish Catholic immigrants in New York City could not afford the $300; and

F. The draft riots were crushed by Lincoln who sent 20,000 Union troops from Gettysburg to quell the rioters with gunfire.

It is a protest which does not employ violence as a way of getting the message across. Some means of achieving this could be petitions, lobbying through email, letters or media outlets, or boycotting. Demonstrations, marches and similar can also be a form of non-violent protest, but often become violent as they progress. One example of an effective non-violent protest was the Montgomery Bus Boycott, where coloured people refused to use the buses in Montgmoery, Alabama to protest about segregation on the service. After almost a year, loss of revenue forced the company to desegregate the buses and allow coloured people to sit at the front.

The people just moaned. But an armed gang, probably in the pay of John Hancock, crept aboard ships of the British East India Company in Boston harbour and damaged 2 million dollars worth of tea. This criminal event was laughed off as the Boston Tea Party.

The riot occurred at the premier of Stravinky's "Le sacre du printemps," or in English, "The Rite of Spring."

The government threatened to impose austerity measures..

England was taxing the colonies to pay for the war debt, which the colonists thought was unfair. The colonists also thought that their rights and freedoms were being threatened. Lastly, England suspended the colonies new elected assembly.

The race riots of 1919 were mainly caused by economics. Whites were competing with returning black soldiers for jobs. The situation was not at all helped by Woodrow Wilson's comment that the soldiers were bringing back Bolshevism with them. After the communist revolution of 1917, America had become extremely paranoid about communism.
