  • HIS 204 Week 2 DQ 2 America's Age of Imperialism
  • The History of Reconstruction. Many Americans
    like to imagine the history of their nation as
    one of continual progress. While acknowledging
    that not all persons and groups enjoyed equal
    rights at all times, Americans often take it for
    granted that American history moves in only one
    direction

    the character of American society

  • HIS 204 Week 2 DQ 1 The Progressive Movement
  • HIS 204 Week 2 DQ 2 America's Age of Imperialism
  • The Progressive Movement. The Progressive
    Movement was a complicated, even contradictory,
    phenomenon which sometimes pushed for the
    expansion of popular democracy while at other
    times, or even simultaneously, advocated that the
    functions of government be placed in the hands of
    experts
  • Americas Age of Imperialism. Americas Age of
    Imperialism was relatively short-lived, and
    somewhat anomalous in terms of overall US
    history. For a few brief years in the 1890s, the
    US aggressively pursued overseas colonies,
    holding on to those colonies even in the face of
    indigenous resistance and

  • HIS 204 Week 2 Paper The Progressive Presidents
  • HIS 204 Week 2 Quiz
  • The Progressive Presidents. The presidential
    election of 1912 was the most Progressive in US
    history with the two frontrunners, Theodore
    Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, both espousing
    Progressive philosophies (and the most
    conservative candidate, William Howard Taft,
    being in many ways a Progressive himself)
  • 1. Question Which African American scholar
    called for a talented tenth of all African
    Americans to attend a university, aspire to the

  • HIS 204 Week 3 DQ 1 Normalcy and the New Deal
  • HIS 204 Week 3 DQ 2 The End of Isolation
  • Normalcy and the New Deal. When the First World
    War ended, Americans welcomed what they hoped
    would be a return to normalcy. The decades that
    followed, however, are ones which would rarely be
    described as normal, in comparison to what came
    before or after
  • The End of Isolation. In 1938, in Munich, the
    British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain made a
    deal with Adolph Hitler allowing Nazi Germany to
    annex Czechoslovakias Sudetenland. Hailed as a
    hero for his diplomacy at the time, Chamberlain
    is now widely reviled for his policy of
    appeasement to Nazi aggression

  • HIS 204 Week 4 DQ 1 A Single American Nation
  • HIS 204 Week 4 DQ 2 Cold War
  • Cold War. After the Second World War, the US
    embarked on what came to be known as the Cold War
    against the Soviet Union. Although the two sides
    never fought against each other directly, the
    Cold War nonetheless erupted into violence at
    times in places like Vietnam, Korea, and
    Afghanistan
  • A Single American Nation. When the First World
    War began, African-American leaders pressed the
    government to provide black men the right to go
    to combat to prove their devotion to their
    country. Hoping that their service would lay a
    stake on citizenship which the nation would have
    no choice but to honor,

  • The Age of Reagan. Most of us have lived much of
    our lives in the Age of Reagan, a period which
    dates from 1980 and which may still be ongoing
    today. Historians increasingly agree that the
    election of Ronald Reagan in 1980 represented a
    revolution

  • HIS 204 Week 5 DQ 2 The Lived Experience of
    Ordinary People
  • HIS 204 Week 5 Final Paper Native American history
  • The Lived Experience of Ordinary People.
    Especially since the 1960s, historians have
    sought to understand history not just as a series
    of major events presided over by generals and
    statesmen, but also as the lived experience of
    ordinary people.
  • Understanding history can be more difficult than
    many people imagine. Historians concern
    themselves not only with what happened but with
    why it happened. They analyze and assess a
    variety of sources, including primary sources
    (ones created during the time period the
    historian is examining) and secondary sources
    (ones written by other historians after the period
