D. a criminal who took bribes and stole money to get rich.

William Tweed was a political boss that manipulated immigrants new to the United States in order to gain political power.

This resulted in William Tweed being able to steal $45 million of taxpayer money in New York city during the late 19th century.

d.

many people believed they were convicted solely because they were anarchists.

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)
