Question: Examine how Americans moving away from urban centers in the Northeast and upper Midwest (ie places like New York City, Boston, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, etc) to suburbs or the South changed the landscape, society, or culture of the United States after WWII.Your responses need:
Please indicate which question you are answering.
Each essay must include a thesis statement. You need to make an actual argument that needs to be supported with facts.
Each essay needs to rely on evidence found in classroom lectures, our textbook, and the OER textbook. YOU MAY NOT use outside sources, like the internet, without prior approval. Click here for the link to the OER textbook.
You must use 2-3 primary sources and 2-3 secondary sources. Lectures do not count.
You must cite where you got each piece of evidence [For Example: "Hitler annexed Austria in 1938" (Created Equal) or "African Americans were often forced to take bogus literacy tests before they were outlawed in 1965 ("Voting Literacy Test 1965" in Created Equal) or "The Union Stockyards are an example of Gilded Age industrialism" (Gilded Age Lecture)].
Essays should ONLY include topics that happened between 1877 and 1990.
Follow the question prompts carefully. If a question asks you to give five specific examples, give five examples. If the question asks you to discuss the cause and effects, please discuss both.
The number one thing that students do wrong in these essays is over-generalize. Be very clear and very explicit. Do not tell me, for example, that the lives of women changed in the 20th century because "they got more freedoms." That will not receive a passing grade. Instead, you should talk about things like the 19th Amendment or the specific things feminism did for women.
