HIS 204 Week 1 DQ 1 The History of Reconstruction
For more course tutorials visit www.his204.com Th
e 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 toward greater rights, greater
freedom, and greater equality. This perspective
makes it difficult for many Americans to
understand the Reconstruction period and to place
it in a broader historical narrative. The problem
they face is that African Americans from roughly
1867 to 1875 enjoyed far more political influence
and equal rights than they ever had before, or
ever would again

HIS 204 Week 1 DQ 2 The Industrial Revolution

e Industrial Revolution. Too much corporate
influence in politics the specter of socialist
policies undermining capitalism and individual
freedoms a middle class in apparent decline
waves of immigration which threatened to alter
the character of American society new
technologies which introduced new social problems
as well as offering new opportunities and a
general sense that the common people had lost
control of their government To a sometimes
surprising degree, the issues which troubled
Americans in the last quarter of the nineteenth
century resembled our own. The past often loses
much of its vigor and tumult as it becomes
codified as history, and it can be difficult at
times to understand how truly revolutionarytranfo
rmative, disruptive, unprecedented, and
divisivean event such as the Industrial
Revolution was for the people who lived through
it.

HIS 204 Week 2 DQ 1 The Progressive Movement For
more course tutorials visit www.his204.com 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. The
movement addressed some of the worst domestic
problems of its time, but its mainstream largely
ignored widespread and worsening racial
injustices. Review the Progressive Movement of
the first two decades of the twentieth century,
and generalize what you take to be its core
principles. Identify the specific economic,
social, and political problems which the
Progressives sought to address and explain

HIS 204 Week 2 DQ 2 America's Age of Imperialism
For more course tutorials visit www.his204.com Am
ericas 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, unlike its handling of
continental territories, offering the new
colonies no pathway toward equal statehood and
citizenship. The Filipino Insurrection of 1899 to
1902 provides a particularly unsettling episode
in terms of how Americans generally like to
remember their past. Having driven the Spanish
out of the Philippines, the US ignored the
Filipinos demand for independence, for which
they had been fighting against the Spanish for
several years, and instead took possession of the
islands, treating the Filipinos as colonial
subjects. For several years, Americans and
Filipinos fought over t
