Outline
We have covered many noteworthy figures related to the colonizing and first 90 years of the United States. For this assignment, choose a significant figure who contributed to and influenced others during the time discussed in this course-with the exception of any U.S. President-and prepare an outline of how you would choose to communicate that figure's relevance to today. This is not a biography. The argument should highlight how society remembers the historical figure now.
Create a one-page outline about the chosen figure and how he or she impacted the evolution of American philosophies or ideals.
Question 1
Share a time when you have worked with someone from a different societal cluster. If you have not had the opportunity to do so, discuss how you believe that this interaction might materialize if you are in a position of leadership over this person.
