    Civil War Conscription Research Paper

    During the Civil War, the U.S. Congress passes a conscription act that produces the first wartime draft of U.S. citizens in American history. The act called for registration of all males between the ages of 20 and 45, including aliens with the intention of becoming citizens, by April 1. Exemptions from the draft could be bought for $300 or by finding a substitute draftee. This clause led to bloody draft riots in New York City, where protesters were outraged that exemptions were effectively granted only to the wealthiest U.S.…

    Conscription In Ww1 Research Paper

    For the first few years of World War I, the CEF relied solely on volunteers. (Valiante, “The Legacy of Canada's WWI Conscription Crisis”). However, the longer the war progressed, the more casualties increased, and the less men volunteered. The Prime Minister at that time, Robert Borden, had seen the decline in volunteers, and once he had returned from a trip to the trenches he became convinced that conscription was the only way to do soldiers justice (Jones, “Conscription”). The Military Service Act of 1917 was issued on August 29, 1917 and became law (“War on the Homefront”). The majority of French-Canadians and pacifists who have implored the government to not enforce conscription were infuriated. The results of the Conscription act culminated in riots and protests that required soldiers to bring order to chaos, and many searched for ways to be exempted from conscription (Canadian War Museum, “Recruitment and Conscription.”).…

    Isolation Of Social Injustice In 'Angel' By Jericho Brown

    As you can see so far, these poems are full of “I” statements in this book. The book also takes the readers into the deep thinking about the racial and sexual tensions from the poems. In the poem, “Angel,” the poem complicates things about the brother’s wife, and his murderer and how it is read, and about the dramatic parts of it. Through this poem, Brown lets the brother’s wife speak for herself as a victim of domestic violence. This allows for her to speak as an individual for her own right. This book reaches and uses the biblical, fundamental, and language that the title of the book gives it. The voices used in the poems are sharp and direct. The syntax in the poems are great too. Also, the alliteration and consonance, long sentences with…

    Conscription Crisis Research Paper

    The defining moment I chose is Conscription Crisis, 1917. This predicament started in early 1917 right down to the end of the war. World War I broke out in 1914 and Canada, as a collaborator of Great Britain, involuntarily found itself in the scrimmage. Such was the estimation of Prime Minister Robert Borden, to say the least.…

    Conscription Crisis Research Paper

    The Conscription Crisis of 1917 is that there is a depleting amount of soldiers who are fighting and even less who are enlisting. This year was one of worry and despair. After the recruiting effort in Quebec failed Canada turned to its only unused option; conscription (Wikipedia). Conscription is the horrid act of a government forcing individuals to go to war. After countless years of discrimination Canada is now forcing French Canadian to enlist, although Prime Minister Borden promised not to result to this. To make matters worse they are making conscientious objectors (people whose religious beliefs went against the war) go to war (The History Archive). After countless protests and outcries from the people this so called democracy did not listen (The History Archive). They also did not consider the families that would be torn apart and the men who had not chosen this to be their fate. Although war efforts are looking bad conscription should never be the choice.…

    Why Was Conscription Activated?

    It is now customary to recite the national oath before every class, which was new but easy to forget, for it failed to spark patriotic or nationalistic feeling within its reciters. For now, my thoughts were on my family. A multitude of questions swarmed my head, Why was conscription activated? What happens when I turn sixteen? What about my parents, will my dad go into the army? Questions I would fortunately never know the answer to.…

    Selective Military Draft

    Selective Military Draft

    Despite the fact that there were previous war military drafts in the United States, the first peace draft was sanctioned by Congress in 1940. Later, the draft was deferred in 1973 when the United States transformed to an all-volunteer military and finally, through a Presidential Proclamation, draft registration requirement was dismissed in 1975 but later renewed in 1980. Currently, the Selective Service System, together with the draft registration and local draft panels, remains as a contingency should a military draft ever be necessary, but the country has no active military draft at this time. The military draft requires that almost all male U.S. citizens and foreign male living in the United States who are between 18 to 25 years register with the Selective Service (Tritten). The senate has the power to redefine the qualified persons as it deems suitable. Presently the excluded group of people are the men who are already serving on active military duty, certain institutionalized people, and other noncitizens. The general rule, according to Tritten, is that any male noncitizen who migrates into the United States before his 26th birthday must register with the Selective Service. The exempted ones are the men who live in the…

    Arguments Against Conscription Campaigns

    The topic I have chosen for this assignment is the Conscription debate, 1916. The good point was how the Catholic Church opposed conscription as a reasonable concern for the welfare of their Church. This is depicted in my artwork in the top part of the eye, where two hands are pointing, representing a community. They represent the church and their desire for equality among all human beings, including soldiers and their families. I chose white for the background because it represents goodness in protecting the church and I also coloured the eyebrows orange to show the Catholic Church’s succession to opposing conscription.…
