AP U.S. History Prep Episode #8 | Imperialism, World War I, and the Roaring Twenties (1898-1929)

Oh hey there students tom Ricci here with the Bill of Rights Institute for another evening of a Bush review of live review for a bush now let me go ahead and start off with a few notes here okay because the AP euro exam happened today now the embargo and talking about the exam to the best of my understanding is not like it is usually it’s basically an hour after the exam we can we can discuss it we can talk about it and so you know usually it’s a two day embargo of one thing that we want to understand about AP euro is that you know what they can be applicable to a bush is first of all AP euro there were several prompts okay so different students got different prompts we’re hearing a variety of prompts that are kind of spread throughout the course but not exactly throughout the course so one thing that we want to think about is we want to think about that we’re not looking at what’s the DBQ topic going to be what do you think the DBQ topic is that we’re seeing that when I’m hearing about is at least yeah so as far as that goes I’ll get into Google Doc ret ready as I talk about this but yes so what we want to understand is there could be a number of props now one thing that I’m also seeing and then again we don’t want to write anything off I’m just passing to you the information that I have so that you can do with it what you will okay so we want to you know I want to give you the best information I have so that you can do with it what you will on the other thing here is that none of the prompts for AP euro that I can that I can here you know that I hear going around we’re past gosht hair is getting really long now on but I think the barbershops can open again next week in South Carolina so there’s a light at the end of the tunnel none of the props were after 1850 or so so the thing is that there were a number of prompts but none of them really got into territory where some classes might not have gone okay so I’ve had a theory on as far as that now we’re still going to get into I think that it’s important for us to you know review the stuff that is right up you know on the examine of the 20 century but you know what we’ll see you know as far as that goes you know we really could see some props that include the twentieth century so we don’t want to write this off now I would counsel you to spend your own time on you know reviewing especially like the the 19th century the American you know the Revolutionary period and all of that but let’s use this time to make sure that we cover our bases in case some of you get a DBQ that is in the 20th century okay I think I think that that is unlikely but at the same time let’s make sure we’re spending this time now another thing is that the dbq’s on the AP euro exam they were the dbq’s on the AP euro exam we’re about the same as any other time the time frames were not longer the time frames

were not longer the time frames you know where they weren’t like overall thematic so they were basically the same kind of DBQ that we’ve seen on other exams so that’s another thing that we want to keep in mind that when we see that other dbqs you know have had props from like 20 to 45 years that were probably looking for something that will be about a you know 30 to 50 year period is what we’re probably going to be looking at there I’m so with that let me go ahead and get into yes so imperialism World War one and let’s say Sophie realism World War one and the Roaring Twenties okay all right so let me go ahead and share that and the Bill of Rights Institute will be putting a link out very soon okay so I just wanted to pass that information to you but we still want to make sure that we are getting ready for the for the exam all right so with that let’s go ahead and kind of think about like social impacts okay and I’m going to try to spend some time what you’re going to see on these 20th century broadcasts is I want to spend some time also relating this to other periods of US history and so that we can get the overall on text okay so we think about the social impacts of World War one okay so social impacts of World War one first of all I would say here that you’ve got the 18th and the 19th amendment okay so I would say that one that those two amendments I would say are products of World War one so the 18th amendment and the 19th amendment okay so the 18th amendment and the 19th amendment so with the 18th amendment what we want to note about that let’s say so lines they just add a little space after okay so and then I’m gonna project y’all like me y’all like me to project okay I’m learning the system y’all like the Google Docs glad y’all find it helpful y’all should be able to kind of have these on file in case they might be useful for you okay so so with that let me go ahead and get my screen sharing gear and we’re good I tell you I’m down to one subject now euros over but I’m just exhausted from the Euro ride you’ll probably see a little bit more well-rested version of me a little bit later so the 18th amendment basically is prohibition okay so when we when we think about this that you know drinking okay so basically consuming alcohol was seen as like a in a European or especially German thing to do okay so you know like alcohol consumption was often associated with German and you know German and Irish immigrants okay so when we look at this that you’ve got kind of a nativist sort of thing now this isn’t something that was necessarily like okay this what prohibition was totally a result of World War one because you understand the temperance goes all the way back to the antebellum period but this is a time like one thing that we could note here is that you know the number one language the number one foreign language taught in schools today is is Spanish okay so

when you think about this that there’s kind of a sort of maybe D Germanization if we were to think about that because you know if we think about the espionage and Sedition Acts okay so so we see some things I would say something like addy German and I’m kind of just answering your question going out a little bit of a limb here but D Germanization like you know German used to be the most common foreign language okay so foreign language alt in American schools okay now what we want to note here is that the espionage and Sedition Acts okay so these were passed not the same as the Alien and Sedition Acts but the espionage and Sedition Acts okay so the espionage and Sedition Acts were passed you know were passed during the War of which you know basically they banned the display of the German flag okay so basically it’s like displaying the flag of an enemy was seen as a criminal act like sometimes I chuckle a little bit because I’ll see somebody like you know we’ve got a town that’s got some a lot of people with German ancestry nearby and you know every time I see like a car that’s got a German flag on the front license plate I just kind of chuckle because I’m like that was illegal during World War one okay so the basically the bat banning the flag you know and then we think about also Frank first okay so this was the time when frankfurters were you know were renamed hotdogs okay that basically a hotdog is a frankfurter sausage and so this is something where we basically you know wheat hotdogs we are eating a German sausage but it’s like we don’t need to say that we’re eating a German sausage right so so you see this like D Germanization of the United States now note here that like Germans okay so German Americans okay German Americans make up the single largest you know the single largest group in the United States okay so the single largest great you know Greek in the United States okay now not so much you know people don’t refer to some German Americans but Americans of German ancestry okay so ancestry make up the single largest group of you know the sick makes up the single largest ancestry in the United States okay so in terms of national origin okay now that is at least if England and Scotland okay our you know divided okay so that’s one thing like what we want to note here is people that come from Britain there are more people who trace their ancestry

back to Britain than Germany but if you divide England and Scotland then that can be seen as you know so that’s kind of an interesting thing here so when you look at this that like the alcohol consumption was often associated with German Irish immigrants okay so you know there was support so basically while there was support for prohibition for World War one Pro you know basically the war you know brought support I’ve you know basically increase support okay so the war increased support to the point where the Constitution could be amended so that’s that’s one thing that I’ve got seeing is like when you think about what if scenarios what if the United States hadn’t gotten involved in World War one it’s entirely possible the prohibition would not have happen in prohibition is kind of one of the things that defines the 1920s and so as far as that goes then we go on to the 19th amendment okay so the 19th amendment of course is women’s suffrage okay so now we’ve note again that you know suffrage had started in the West okay so what we want to note here is suffrage if you get something that deals with westward expansion that is another thing that you can note on you know suffrage began on in the late 19th century in several western states okay so basically several western states you know that by the time the 19th amendment passed and patios ratified most states west of the Mississippi and actually in that case okay so most states west of the Mississippi so most states west of the Mississippi were you know had already okay so it all already you know rat had already legislated women’s suffrage on the state level okay so basically just to note here we look at the 19th amendment and this is something that when we think about the pioneering experience okay when we think about the pioneering experience of you know this one’s I maybe I should have looked up well that’s women’s suffrage in the United States okay so women’s suffrage in the United States I think this is where we’re going to see the map here I’m just a kind of note because I think this is just a very interesting thing about how that how this works okay so let’s see a map let’s say okay so this is a promotional map in the US and Canada and actually let’s see women’s suffrage u.s. gosh you need to learn how to google done’ okay so map women’s suffrage in the u.s. map okay by state and so that’s yes so here’s

something here well this is neh gov so that should be fine as a government website and so 1919 basically what you’re looking at here now there is a political cartoon that I’ve seen this before that this is you know in the nineteen you know 1915 and what you see here is that – you know women’s suffrage is marching okay he’s basically women’s suffrage is marching from west to east okay so yes that’s fine I want to see this alright so you see from west to east basically these western states Wyoming was the first one now there’s a DBQ that I’ve that I wrote on on women was more thematic in its approach and you know we see with that that on that DBQ I’ve got a quote you know a document that deals with congresswoman jeannette rankin who was the first female member of congress and she came from montana she was serving in Congress by the time there you know that women’s suffrage was ratified and so with that let’s see do we have another map there I think we can scroll down here let’s see okay well nevermind but anyway I think I’ve given you enough there west to east and largely driven by this pioneering experience you know note here that you know you can see here this map that I don’t know why we are you know why we cannot let’s the image in a new tab and that’s going to get me yeah so what we see there is you know this map where it’s basically in the east and not just the south you know you notice New York is 1917 before that you know so it’s basically the East Coast where there was still this cult of domesticity on the frontier you’re not doing the same you know seeing the same thing because on the frontier you know you see that women are you know much more you know much more you know the roles of men and women are not as differentiated out on the frontier so a very interesting sort of thing there all right so with that you know that is an interesting question somebody has got you know Caitlyn you’ve got a question where any of the Euro DBQ similar to the ones that have happened in the past few years not that I know of the you know the car everything’s the cards are still falling into place you know I don’t think people just started talking about it before I went live but from what I can tell we didn’t necessarily have any dbq’s that on you know we’re from recess so I don’t think you’re gonna see like the same DBQ topic as like in the last three years now they can do it from the same time period okay so that’s why you know you just want to kind of think about that and they could be inclusive of something but we don’t want to try to gain it too much because at the end of the day you’re going to have one DBQ topic put in front of you so it’s not so much about eliminating now another thing is that just because the topic DBQ is different okay just because the topic of a DBQ is different then you know it doesn’t mean that stuff that was relevant to that DBQ won’t be relevant to another DBQ from the same time period so that’s something to keep in mind as well and so although we you know we saw one recently on the Progressive Era you know what’s to stop there being something on like women’s suffrage where some of the Progressive Era stuff may be relevant on so word so as far as that we be able to print out our documents grace technically yes you can print out your documents but as far as that goes we

also want to note here that printing out your documents is going to take time and you don’t necessarily want you know want this to you know to take time in terms of you know it can be three minutes the other thing is what if your printer messes up okay what if your printer messes up and there’s something that you know some kind of malfunction and you were counting on the documents to be printed now if you go to you know if you just search for a push DBQ let me see what we’re gonna see here so if we search for a push DBQ I’ll go ahead and give you okay let me go ahead and go go to this this is a link my friends at Marko learning have this here I’m going to share this you know share this with a bill of rights and students they share that Marko learning setup guide okay um so basically what I’ve got here this is a resource that is going to be helpful to you in terms of being able to annotate on the documents and set up a strategy for yourself so the thing is now if you want to print your documents I think that’s that’s okay if you want to print your documents that’s fine but what we want to do here is you know think about that you can’t guarantee your printer is gonna work you don’t you may not want to waste the time so what I’m doing here in terms of this is we are you know going through and screen reading but we’ve got an annotation sheet here now you can also replicate this on a Google Doc that’s something we did in a previous session we were focusing on the you know in a previous session where we focused on how to put together a DBQ and so with that we go from you know briefly summarize the document what argument could be used and then for two documents the POV now the other thing is remember unless you have done this under timed conditions and you’ve replicated ten out of ten multiple times then you know that’s you know that’s that’s the thing but anyway with that let’s just let’s just go ahead and we can go through there and then I think the setup sheet here the prewriting worksheet I think if you don’t use this sheet if you don’t want to handwrite I think that’s fine but make sure you’ve got some kind of variant here on that you are you know looking at body paragraph number one body paragraph number two you know and making sure what’s my evidence for the documents support this argument where’s my outside evidence I usually recommend putting outside evidence at the end of each body paragraph that way it clearly differentiates the outside evidence from the body paragraphs so with that I will we’ll just go ahead and see I think I’ve got some other questions coming in excellent okay so then we see here were flappers initially shunned by the public okay so what we want to note here is the 20’s are kind of an interesting thing here you know when we when we think in terms of let’s see so let me let me note here just bought while I’m finishing that up

let’s see we need to share the screen of games I’m going back to the document right okay so going from there all right so suffrage on the state level and you know women’s suffrage in the United States was part of a global trend okay so States was part of a global trend okay so this is something that’s going on across the gulf of the globe now when we think about the cultural shifts in the 1920s okay that remember that warren g harding okay so warren g harding elected as president in 1920 promised a return to normalcy okay so a return to normalcy because what we’re noting here is to kind of be set this up that you had had the Progressive Era World War one so you know you had had you know after the Progressive Era and World War one okay and so what we want to note about this is first of all we know the Progressive Era brought in a great deal of political change so if we’re thinking about this you know where you see periods that become a bit more conservative right and they’re after times of rapid expansion or change so when we think about the Progressive Era and then we think about World War one okay so as far as that goes the Progressive Era and World War one that the Progressive Era resulting resulted in a great deal of a political change that you know redefined redefine one the relationship you know governments rolled hole in the economy okay in terms of regulating business and you know we think about two on the relationship between you know basically the relationship between the federal government and the states okay now we look at the relationship between the federal government the states we want to know they’re also the 16th and 17th amendments okay because when you think about this the 16th and 17th amendments on these are with the 16th and 17th amendments the 16th amendment is the income tax and so the income tax is basically now the federal government can tax individual incomes without going through the states now strictly speaking before the 6th amendment an income tax could happen okay conceivably an income tax could happen and so you know but the income tax would have to be levied equally on each state by population now we know

today that the value of a dollar in California is not the same as the value of a dollar in Alabama you know a dollar is going to go further in Alabama California has more you know wealthy people and you already see that there are you know economic inequalities and so basically the way the income tax would have had to been collected under the original Constitution like we look at the sixteenth amendment to the Constitution what we see here let’s see so going from going from there let’s see and some people some people think it’s funny that I like Wikipedia but I just I find Wikipedia to be the most accessible source of information I don’t you know when it comes into into that the Congress shot of the power to lay and collect taxes on incomes from whatever source derived without apportionment among the several states okay so without apportionment you know of the several states so you know with that with that obvi see that this without apportionment among the several states okay without regard to any census or enumeration so that’s what you’re looking at there that basically made it unworkable so with that with that we see that you know we’re seeing the income tax now can be on individuals so the government doesn’t have to go through the states anymore now the next thing is if we look at the 17th amendment okay so we look at the 17th amendment onto the United States Constitution on what we’re seeing there is that now the Senators are going to be on the senators are going to be directly elected okay so the senators are going to be directly elected instead of elected by the or appoint you know basically appointed by the legislature so before the 17th amendment what you had here and this really changes and lets you know this is where we can come and talk about the Constitution a little bit in the Constitution as it was originally written what we want to understand about that is that the framers of the Constitution what they were trying to do is they were trying to create a balance of aristocracy and democracy what they were looking at is you know models of government that went back to Aristotle that basically we need the house of representatives that is not only a portion based on population but also directly elected by the voters and then we’ve got the Senate which is divided between the states but also is appointed by state legislatures so this is like basically the Senate was not directly you know there was not a direct link between the Senate and the voters it was indirect through the legislature and so the framers thought this was a you know this was a way to make sure that remember the framers thought of democracy as kind of a a dirty word you know it’s something we need a democratic element in our government but we don’t need a democratic government that it really starts in the 1820s where we see a push for a democracy okay we see a

push for democracy so that’s something something with that that we’re going to note about the progresses that for the progressives wanted government to be more democratic more responsive to the people and so basically but there’s a lot of change there and so warren g harding you know has this very attractive this very attractive message to a lot of people about this return to normalcy so we see here as we go through you know as we go through World War one what we’re seeing there is World War one was the first time the United States had ever on you know had ever unperturbed in a European war okay so we note here that afterwards now I’ve got a video it’s an old video but I would say it’s probably one of my first like halfway decent videos perhaps that what we see here is the but you know after the war okay so after the war the United States Senate rejected the Treaty of Versailles okay so the Treaty of Versailles and did not put the you know and you know did not join the League of Nations okay now I’ve got two videos that are relevant I’ve got one Wilson versus the Senate the Versailles Treaty debate and I’ve got another one that is about the 1920s in particular okay so I’ve got another one that is about the 1920s in 1920s foreign policy what we want to note is that does not mean that the United States like stopped interacting with the rest of the world a lot of people like to use the term isolationism but we do see in the 1920s the Washington Naval conference we see you know the kellogg-briand pact which we can kind of laugh at now the kellogg-briand pact says basically we’re not gonna have any more Wars and so as far as that goes on that’s you know so the kellogg-briand pact we’re not we’re not gonna have any more Wars and yeah so we see how that went right and then the Dawes plan so the United States is still you know is still you know wit you know still engaging with the world okay so foreign policy okay so foreign policy 1920s okay we think about the United States is still engaging with the world but on its own terms so a few things here the Washington Naval conference the Dawes plan now that is different from the Dawes Act right the Dawes plan knows that’s different than the Dawes Act which was what broke up the Indian reservations at that time and the kellogg-briand pact so there are several international agreements but its own terms of you know making you know participating in several international agreements okay so we see there that we

want to note that we’ve got we’ve got these things here all right so foreign policy in the 1920s that’s just a little little thing there and so with that you know with that we got this so with that we’re going to we’re going to get into you know with that let’s go ahead and go for a now but we want I still feel you know I was taking the long route to the question about flappers okay so it’s taking the long road to the question about flappers so what we want to understand here is the 1920s you know were anything but normal okay so we we see social upheaval okay in the 1920s so we’re gonna note first of all that you know we’re gonna know first of all the great migration okay so we’re going to see here the great migration of african-americans from the south okay now note here that this is world you know world war one unto night to you know basically we’re seeing that throughout you know during and after World War one now one thing to note here this is something that you know we always hear about you know southern racism after you know after reconstruction during Reconstruction which is definitely something that is you know that is legitimate on as far as you know this was this was a thing but at the same time what we want to understand too is the first time that the rest of the country has to deal with with with raised racial you know racial diversity we see here that there are race riots in Chicago you know basically now note that they were seeking jobs okay so they were seeking jobs and education and to escape lynching okay this is really the high point of the you know of the of the lynching on debacle in United States history okay that basically there is a record number of african-american men who were being hanged without trial on the federal government really did not interfere here now we would note here oughta be well okay we want to know about I to be wells I’m who was a muckraker who documented the lynchings in the south okay so you want to make sure that you know about I to be Wells but we’re gonna note here while they were running away from racism in the South they were going they were meeting another racism so we see that you know there were race riots okay race riots in Chicago and other cities okay so that’s one thing that’s happening here then of course you’ve got the first red skater which this is the only Red Scare you need to know about this year so after World War one okay so basically this was fear of a communist revolution in the United States basically initiated by radical immigrants okay so the thing is remember that the new immigrants okay so new immigrants during the Progressive Era

came from Eastern ok so a lot of new you know so many so many of the new immigrants the new immigrants during the Progressive Era came from Eastern Europe so with that we got here that you know they believe that radical immigrants are going to bring about a revolution and what we’re seeing here is that the Palmer Raids okay so the Palmer Raids you know against you know basically us you know basically US government raids on radical immigrants okay I’m you know resulted in deportation I’m you know of hundreds okay so basically hundreds I believe hundreds I believe I’m correct hundreds being deported on deportation of hundreds often without due process okay and that’s of course something that you know is you know when we look at the United States today people typically get due process in the United States whether they’re a citizen or not you know people don’t typically think that okay due process is reserved for only citizens on but you see he that’s the Palmer Raids we’re part of this first red skater okay this fear of a communist revolution that can happen there now we note here is you know that that we have you know cultural you know we have some kind of you know sort of it can we call it hipster culture I don’t know that these are at you know new cultural developments okay so new cultural developments you have jazz okay which was you know which was at that time you know at that time seen as scandalous and for young people I often say that you know jazz in the 1920s is almost like the gangster rap of the 1920s on that this is something that it’s hard for us to understand because today we think about jazz as something that’s classy you know when you think about somebody who listens to jazz you’re thinking in terms of you know like Ron Burgundy like I have several leather-bound books or something like that you know in my apartment smells of rich mahogany um so that’s something that we may you know that we see there that jazz was something that was for young people it was seen as you know as scandalous and trendy and that sort of thing so he’s about to talk about the first read let’s see so yes okay talked about the first Red Scare on Teddy Roosevelt’s big stick yet so with that on you know just now Maya I think I do have a video on the imperial president somewhere okay so you do let’s see let me just see if I’ve got that video out there okay this should be

something that could be helpful let me see if I’m able to put a youtube link I’m into this or not okay so let’s say okay I can’t do that but I’m gonna go ahead and send that to the Bill of Rights Institute if you put in imperial presidents Tom Ritchie in YouTube you’ll be able to find this and it’s pretty it’s pretty short video goes into that I would recommend I would recommend taking a look at that on you know because I go into differentiating exactly what you’re getting into there and so so with that basically with now one thing that we want to note about that I think is let me go ahead and think about in terms of foreign policy let’s think about like you know just Teddy Roosevelt versus Woodrow Wilson okay on Teddy Roosevelt versus Woodrow Wilson versus like George Washington okay so let’s think about this like three presidents go into a room together okay so Teddy Roosevelt’s so we’re basically George Washington and again let me let me project my screen there okay so as far as as far as that goes all right and so with that okay so George Washington then Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson so George Washington is what we would call what people would say isolationists okay now also put they always put this in quotes because remember this is something that is meant to be insulting okay so this is something that is meant to be insulting it’s not somebody would say that about themselves okay so this would be like a nationalist foreign policy Nationals foreign policy Wilson being more internationalist okay um so the thing is that Ted that George Washington you know would say like stay out of World War one okay so George Washington would have said stay out of World War one Teddy Roosevelt would say on you know get in World War one okay so get into World War one on to defend American interests okay so to you know defend American interests so then so get into World War one defend American interest on to preserve American neutrality so we want to preserve neutrality and stay out of Europe and not get involved in their entanglements we want to preserve we want to avoid foreign entanglements that’s probably better there avoid foreign entanglements so avoid foreign entanglements then get in the World War one to defend American interests now then we see here get into World War one to make the world safe for democracy okay so that’s something that we see here with Teddy Roosevelt he was somebody who was like a nationalist

interventionist okay so when we look at this that you know what Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson would have in common okay so what they would have in common is that George Washington was a non-interventionist okay and then is where I say that you know normally you will reach you know you’re going to find the natural contextualization for whatever prompt but you know the natural contextualization for whatever prompt is going to be a bit different then you know it’s usually going to be right before that time period or right at the beginning but in this case if we’re talking about foreign policy like George Washington because it’s not just Washington himself it is this tradition that started with George Washington that was you know pretty much kept for the most part on that when Europeans kill each other it’s not the business the United States now Teddy Roosevelt was in an interventionist okay so and then so was Woodrow Wilson so you want to note here that basically Teddy Roosevelt with the big stick foreign policy if we’re thinking about why did Ted what was Teddy Roosevelt’s foreign policy what it is is we are intervening in the world to make the United States more powerful and to defend American interests now Woodrow Wilson when he made his you know his speech his war message now of course he talked about how the unrestricted submarine warfare was an unnecessary violation of neutral rights okay that basically neutral rights in the United States had been you know had been compromised here but at the same time he said make the world safe for democracy now what we want to note going into World War two and we can talk about this a little more tomorrow is that you know the you know World War one you know World War one did not okay so did not make the world safe for democracy and a lot of Americans had buyer’s remorse or getting involved in a European oh and what was seen afterwards as a meaningless European war okay that basically Europe was put in a worse position than they were you know than they had been in and really the United States could all almost be seen I mean there are different ways to argue this this is an argumentative point but you could certainly make a point that the United States of getting involved in World War one might have been part of the impetus for the Versailles Treaty and the mess that was because without the United States tipping the balance in favor of the Allies then you might have seen a negotiated peace or something like that now again we’re getting into what ifs and might have but when we’re understanding like 1930s foreign policy as you know somebody noted that the United States gets a bit more like what we call isolationist you know later in the 1930s as Europe’s gearing up for war again the United States is like no we don’t want to get involved in that war on so so when we go from there

the flappers okay so I haven’t got you know I’ve mentioned jazz we need to get to the flappers I was taking a long road for the flappers okay and so we see here that you know flappers are another one of these cultural developments so some young women not necessarily all but some some young women odd began wearing short skirts now these are you know when we think about short skirts these would be skirts that would not be short by today’s standards but they were not ankle length okay so they’re wearing skirts that basically show their you know they show their calves and this is something that women were not expected to do think about why you know you you look at like I’ve you know Southern Belles before the Civil War wearing those hoop skirts and you know that they didn’t show you know it’s like to show a man her ankles was seen as like you know kind of like scandalous like a man’s not supposed to see a woman’s ankles and so short skirts on you know and you know speak in wear short skirts on you know smoke cigarettes and go dance clubs okay so you know and go to dance clubs so as far as that goes you know they begin where skirt smoke cigarettes go to dance clubs and that’s something now we need to note also that you know there you know that we also see that traditional you know this is not the end of traditional womanhood there are all of these appliances on that are coming out so you know traditional womanhood is not going away in the 1920s now we also want to note here that when we’re looking at the great migration the first Red Scare you know we could not no we could also look at note the Scopes trial okay so evolution evolutionary theory and the Scopes trial okay and that of course happened when Tennessee was you know banned would basically banned the teaching of evolution or even the teaching of anything that is not consistent with the creation story in the Bible and so we see that the Scopes trial you know the Scopes trial represented a you know the Scopes trial represented something that was of you know this culture war in the end United States that we basically see like modernism modernism versus fundamentalism now fundamentalism is basically you know a very traditional form of Christianity that it that stresses the literal interpretation the Bible okay so very traditional Protestant Christianity note here Protestant Christianity fundamentalist typically do not see Catholicism as legitimate so we see a lot of anti Catholic you know anti-immigrant anti-catholic sentiment here in the 1920s so very traditional of you know Protestant religion that emphasizes you know traditional Protestant religion you know that emphasizes the literal interpretation of the Bible okay so basically now modernism of course this is getting into where a lot of people are you know becoming you know

irreligious like you know very you know new forms of you know of thinking that you know modern these people you know people who read you know influence modern philosophy that rejected on you know rejected Christianity okay so modernism rejected Christianity or you know or at least I’m going to put something here or at least traditional versions okay so you’ve got basically you know the this idea of a modern kind of way of thinking but a pushback from you know from the fundamentalist and then finally we would see the Ku Klux Klan okay now the Ku Klux Klan I’m gonna note here what we want to clarify here is we’re talking about the second Ku Klux Klan okay so the second Ku Klux Klan you know the first Ku Klux Klan had gone you know defunct okay so the first ad gone defunct after Reconstruction and we want to note as well the movie the influence of the movie Birth of a Nation okay now taps foreign policy is known as on dollar diplomacy okay dollar diplomacy were basically taps on main objective was to look out for American business interest okay taps objective was to look out for American business interest and so with that of you know basically in Latin America you know we’ve got business interest there that need to be defended and so that was his point of view there the dollar diplomacy and of course on that video that I’ll ain’t just type in Tom Ritchie Imperial presidents and I go into a little more detail on those foreign policies I just want to let that video stand on its own since it’s relatively short it’s just a little six minute video and it gives a comprehensive analysis of that I’m so so with that going from here did World War one in the Progressive Era I would say that World War one yet does kind of like slam the Progressive Era shut okay that you know you start to see and this is where we you know we kind of look you know all you know where you know things go one way people want it to go another way and then people are kind of you know a little bit tired of that so James you think about we talked about European history that’s got like the French Revolution with the reign of terror and then you have the old regime before that then you go to the reign of terror and Napoleon’s like let’s find something that’s kind of a happy middle and so yeah the Progressive Era is kind of the you know the Progressive Era is typically defined as you know 1890 to 1920 or 1919 20 depending on so now imperialism cartoons that we might get on a DBQ Mya the DBQ two years ago was on imperialism and included two cartoons and for that reason I would I would refer you to 2018 but I would say that is extremely unlikely that any dbqs are going to be about imperialism this year now it could they could take another DBQ from the 20 you know from the 20th century you know we could see World War One on a DBQ I don’t I really don’t see it you know we will go over some basic

points tomorrow about the depression in World War 2 because we want to be prepared for that eventuality but I’m really not seeing that they’re going to step right up to the line now I may have some more information to give you all tomorrow about AP euro like I said about AP euro they closed the course off at 1914 and from what I’m hearing none of the DB cues that were put out there stepped right up to 1914 so you know that’s something that you know it seems like the college for is trying to be cognizant of being safe in terms of making sure that they don’t get in the territory that some students didn’t cover in class because if you were in a class that let out and y’all were in the Progressive Era and you’re DBQ is about the depression and then that could be I’d be the difference now on yes what’s the difference now this is really getting a little bit more into writing Veronica I would refer you to the previous broadcast that we did where we were getting into the on the previous broadcast where we talked dbq’s the Bill of Rights Institute may be able to put some links to those in the chat but I basically went through like entire dbq’s we’ve also got on Marco learning’s YouTube channel I’ve done I’ve gone through a DBQ so that’s something to note there as well so so with that the first Ku Klux Klan had gone defunct after reconstruction and so what happened here is that Birth of a Nation so in nineteen you know so you know the 1915 film Birth of a Nation glorified the Klan and made it look heroic okay so basically the second Klan you know so the second clan was conspire you know was it was inspired by this basically you know was a kind of an echo of the first Klan so the second Klan was founded largely you know made the Klan look heroic on you know forming part you know part of the causation for the formation of the second Klan okay but no the second Klan was unrelated to the first Klan and so the second Klan was founded you know basically on you know by white Protestants who counter you know in order to counter perceived threats to Americanism okay so what they thought has true Americanism on that basically true Americanism is you know basically white anglo-saxon Protestant okay so when we think about this white you know Northern European Northern European process okay so that’s basically what they’re you know what they’re looking at they’re white northern European Protestant and so basically true you

know threats that are that are seen to business such as modernist philosophy okay some modern philosophy modern philosophy on Catholicism immigration and internal migration okay so internal migration on by african-americans so when we think about the great migration that is one of these things that that’s happening on during this time so basically you see here modern philosophy Catholicism immigration internal migration you know so all of these things are being seen as something that needs to be defended now will note here that the Klan declined you know so the Klan declined after 1930 after several leaders were found you know were found guilty of you know of crimes okay so basically like a you know this is for example on you know a Klan leader in Indiana was found guilty right okay so basically you know he’s you know part of this organization that claims that they’re founded that they that they respect women that they’re protecting women and then one of the leaders of this organization is found guilty of rape and so as far as that goes that’s what you know that should kind of get us up to speed now let’s see what else we’ve got here as far as any other questions I’ve got here okay so as far as supporting the argument so Veronica there are three things that we need to do here when we think about what we need to do with documents now you can go to my 8 Bush DBQ page okay so DBQ 2020 let’s get that get that going here let’s see okay a bush ddq Reber 2020 okay so going from there on we’ve got here the a bush DBQ 2020 and so so going going with that let me go ahead and go to my web page here you could go to you know basically you see now if you put 2028 push dvq rubric okay so 2028 push DBQ rubric you’re going to see one of my one of my videos here or not my video but you’ll see my rubric that I’m about to put on screen here so we’re going to take a quick look at this there are three things that you need to know to with the documents okay so as far as that as far as that goes now Angela I’m not sure what we’re talking about in terms of the world-market on what you do see during the Progressive Era is we see that you know you see with the with the Progressive Era that during Wilson’s administration when the income tax is you know is passed you see that the the tariff is lowered so one thing you’re going to note here is in the Progressive

Era American manufacturing is at a point where it doesn’t need to be protected by tariffs and so the u.s. enters the world market you know at the time when they’re basically surplus industrial goods that need to be put out there on during the Civil War and into the Gilded Age the you know the emphasis was on protecting the US industry from foreign competition but we’re seeing at a point where you know basically US manufacturing capacity is more than what is you know what’s available you know the people that are able to buy it and so the US wants to get out there with all of this surplus industrial on production and also crop prices had gone down because farmers weren’t able to export their crops because of the tariffs in the United States during the Progressive Era goes in the direction more of free trade and abandons the high tariff policies of the Gilded Age and so with that you know when we look at the rubric contextualization theses are the same way now three things you need to do you need to describe I’m a document which means that you need to oniony to show that you understand its content supporting an argument the basic thing there is if your if your description of the document makes sense in light of the overall argument so in the topic sentence then what you’re going to see there is you’re supporting the argument now when we talk about the the POV Plus on what we want to understand here and let me go ahead and share something I can share something here on that let me take let me show y’all on some setup and I’ll make sure that that is shared on that some set up and then they’ll put this in the description later I believe they’ll add these links that I’m sharing to the description on so that y’all can see these later on but what we want to note here is let’s see let’s get this link out there y’all and then yeah so Teddy Roosevelt it’s the Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine now note we did we did a broadcast on imperialism a couple weeks ago so if you look through the Bill of Rights Institute’s AP prep webinars we did one and sorry if y’all feel like I’ve kind of short at Imperialism tonight we did one where we were basically focused on on you know the development of US imperialism and foreign policy in general so as far as this goes what we want to note here and I’ve shared this and that’ll be sharing the chat by the Bill of Rights Institute is this shows you basically going through this whole thing we’ve got a sample response that I’ve put together there I’m so with that we see contextualization thesis now topic sentence your paragraph if you’re using the documents argumentatively they’re being used to support arguments you’re not just like document one says doc youtube says you know that you are say so we know here reconstruction resulted in meaningful and lasting social change in terms of the abolition of slavery

property rights for women in public education the south in his last speech Abraham Lincoln urged Congress to accept Louisiana’s proposed state constitution okay so we do accept Louisiana’s proposed state constitution which did not provide suffrage for freedmen but did abolish slavery and at a public education system for all races now we know here that I’ve got an argument that’s talking about abolishing slavery public education and then note here that’s my description of the document and it’s done in a way that obviously supports an argument okay so I’ve described the document and it goes it fits into an argument that’s being made the supports point is largely based on is there a topic sentence okay is there a topic sentence and so then notice here now I’m doing my POV plus hip analysis lincoln’s audience was the Radical Republicans at his own party who believed that abolishing slavery was not enough and that the former Confederate states needed to be punished and forced to grant full citizenship rights to african-americans so I go into audience analysis here so as far as that goes you want to you know some documents you’re going to you know use something after where you’re explaining this document further you’re going beyond I’m just showing this here what the document says and you’re going behind what the document says in terms of point of view context audience or purpose and so we see here that then notice that I tend to put my outside evidence at the end and then we see here that okay so in 1866 so although there was substantial social change as a result in civil war resistance to change from southern whites and apathy in the north resulted in social change being limited in 1866 robert e lee testified before congress saying he believed that if the federal government for southern states to allow black residents to vote it would create hostility between the races okay document two since robert e lee had been a confederate general and was looked at almost as a god by southern white people after the Civil War his view of how the southern Rights would react was very likely accurate and is supported by resistance efforts during Reconstruction such as the formation of the KKK so here I get into point of view and historical context now remember you only need to address POV context audience or purpose but your problem they address more than one of those when you’re doing this so with that ladies and gentlemen and we’ve got tomorrow kind of a Great Depression World War two and wrap up okay so we want to be able to wrap up we may take some some more general questions you know so the thing is we don’t want to forget about that stuff and it’s stuff that a lot of people may not have gotten in class so we will focus on some kind of basics of the depression on basics of World War two um but then again I’ve also got some

notes on those things I think from some of my corona classes that I will be sure to share as well so with that I’m thankful to the Bill of Rights Institute for having me on once again and and looking forward to bringing our webinars on to a close tomorrow it’s always a pleasure
