    Traditional Values, Poverty, and The Rise of Conservatism The 1960s were a time of great social, economic, and political change in American society. Many social movements emerged that sought to end inequality and injustice through activism and protest but as Layman (1995) indicates, the changes “were often so dramatic that some feared for the American way of life.” These movements resulted in a breakdown of traditional values that created a state of discouragement in society and the decline of liberalism. Controversial issues such as pro-choice abortion rights, the Equal Rights Amendment, and the War on Poverty were all in play in the 1960s and were seen by many as causes of the breakdown.…

    In 1945 American soldiers helped to liberate Europe from hate and fear orchestrated by the doctrine of a political party.

    White Supremacy, democrats, and the degradation of women are the main focuses of all columnist Charles Blow’s articles. As a biased author, Blow supports only one side of his argument; that President Donald Trump is a white supremacist and is doing more harm to our country than good. Although his main audience and focus is on anti-Trump supporters and democrats, his argument is also an attempt to sway Trump supporters over to the anti side. His evidence is weak because it is not factual, yet rather opinion based (i.e. surveys, polls, tweets, etc.). His arguments don’t open any new doors on the subject/topic, rather he just repeats the same information in each one.…

    The Radical and the Republican by James Oakes is a historical retelling about the struggle of two men, Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass, to put an end to slavery and the formation of their partnership that led to the ending of slavery. Both men came from vastly different backgrounds, but both strongly believed that slaves should be emancipated and given the benefits from their hard labor. However, in the beginning, their similarities ended there and they were not willing to be friends nor partners. Oakes argues that things could not remain this way due to the need for the passionate reformation and impulsive nature of Douglass paired with the practical political leadership that was exemplified by Lincoln were needed to finally liberate…
