Advanced American History

The discussion today shifts from the modernization, urbanization and the booming economy of the twenties, to the social tension and upheaval of the age.  Many in America felt the nation was abandoning its traditions and this manifests itself in a backlash against science, urbanization, immigrants, diversity, etc.

We finished class with a quiz on the topics of the past few days.  If absent, be sure to make this up within 3 school days.
