Prior to beginning work on this Discussion forum,
1.
In order to start thinking about history, think of a film, video, image,
song, or piece of music that reminds you of an era or event in the
past.
Consider the film, video, image, song or piece of music
that you selected.
Explain why you chose this piece.
Explain what it tells us about the historical event or era it
depicts.
Think about what you want your classmates to know about
you as a person and your academic, professional, and
personal goals.
2.
Next, start thinking about your work for this course, which will focus
on American history from 1877 to the present. One of the primary
areas of focus in the course will be the examination of political and
civil rights of traditionally disadvantaged groups within American
Society and their struggles for social equity within American society.
To this end, you will select one of the following disadvantaged
groups and examine their experiences throughout the course,
culminating in your Final Paper. (Your group choice does not have to
relate to your chosen historical piece above.)
African Americans
Native Americans/American Indians
Women
Immigrants
Consider which group you have chosen to focus on. Why have you chosen
this group? If you are having trouble deciding, which groups are you most
interested in and why?
Hello Everyone,
My name is -----I am 24 years old I live in Tucson, Arizona with my girlfriend
and six dogs. I currently work at Lowe's as a sales associate, but I have been
in retail for almost five years now. The degree that I am studying for is in
Computer Software Technology, but I am still unsure if it's the career I want
to go with. I know I have time to switch, but I just need to take time to think
about what I want to do.
When I think of history the first thing that pops into my mind is Saving
Private Ryan. One of the historical events that I loved learning about in
history class back in high school was WWII. The study of World War II offered
valuable lessons for the present and the future. It allowed us to examine the
causes and consequences of the war, identify the mistakes made, and
understand how diplomacy and international cooperation can help prevent
future conflicts. It reminds us of the importance of vigilance in safeguarding
peace and preserving democratic values.
The group that I have decided to focus on throughout this course is
immigrants. The US has a rich history of immigration, with millions of people
from diverse backgrounds coming to the country during this period. Studying
immigrants allows us to understand the various cultures, traditions,
languages, and religions that have contributed to the American identity. It
highlights the dynamic process of cultural exchange and the ways in which
immigrants have influenced and shaped American society.
