Your essay should provide an answer and evidence to prove your answer (main idea or thesis) to one of the questions below. Make certain you utilize at least THREE primary sources to prove the validity of your thesis (main idea). These primary sources are located in the weekly modules.
1) DO NOT USE SOURCES OUTSIDE OF THOSE PROVIDED. This is not an internet research paper.
2) Turnitin.com now has AI detection. If you turn in an assignment that was written using AI, you will be given a 0% with no opportunity to redo the work.
Cite, using Chicago or MLA style, where in the text you found your information and what primary sources you used.
Questions: Select one set to write your essay.
Q1: How did reconstruction fail? How did it succeed?
[Note here are some themes to ponder as you begin to brainstorm. Consider the failures and successes of reconstruction; and/or how did science and technology change American cultural, diplomatic, political, and/or religious ways; how did ideas of “race” influence US policy domestically and/or how did ideas of “race” explain US policy internationally; consider Native American relations with US settlers in western territories and the federal government; how did the United States become a world power in the period from 1877-1921; define the nature of US – imperialism – relations with Cuba, Philippines, Hawaii, and/or China during the late 19th and early 20th century; and what were the experiences of eastern and southern Europeans in the United States during the progressive era.
The essay must be 900 to 1200 words long (roughly 3-4 pages if you have 1” margins, 12 font, Times New Roman, and double-spaced). Essays less than 900 words receive an entire letter grade deduction.
