This assessment measures the following learning objective. Upon completion of Chapter #17, you will be able to:
Choose moments, events, objects, individuals, and/or stories from the module’s learning resources that validate a famous quote about American history AND defend your choices. NO OUTSIDE SOURCES.
PROMPT:
The quotation below comes from a talk author James Baldwin gave to schoolteachers in October 1963.
“I would try to make [students] know that just as American history is longer, larger, more various, more beautiful and more terrible than anything anyone has ever said about it, so is the world larger, more daring, more beautiful, and more terrible, but principally larger-and that it
belongs to [them].”
James Balwin, A Talk to Teachers, 1963
IN YOUR OWN WORDS, explain how Chapter #17’s learning resources have shown American history to be “longer, larger, more various, more beautiful, and more terrible” than perhaps you had realized.
Choose the moments, events, objects, individuals, and/or stories FROM CHAPTER #17’s learning resources that best validate James Baldwin’s quote for you. Make sure that your choices are focused on validating FOUR (4) of the five aspects of American history Baldwin mentions:
“longer” = What specific issue rooted in the time period studied IN CHAPTER #17’s learning resources remains an issue today? Does this issue show continuity or change between past (then) and present (now)? Explain & defend your choice.
“larger” = RESPOND to ‘A’ OR ‘B’:
What particular moment, event, object, individual, and/or story FROM CHAPTER #17’s learning resources demonstrates the global intersection between American history and the histories of other countries and/or continents? Significance? Explain & defend your choice.
What particular moment, event, object, individual, and/or story FROM CHAPTER #17’s learning resources demonstrates the broad range of possible historical topics that can be studied beyond just the usual subjects of wars, politics, famous/infamous persons? Significance? Explain & defend your choice.
“various” = What particular moment, event, object, individual, and/or story FROM CHAPTER #17’s learning resources demonstrates that American history has been various (i.e., diverse/multicultural/immigrants of varied backgrounds/changing demographics)? Significance? Explain & defend your choice.
“beautiful” = What particular moment, event, object, individual, and/or story FROM CHAPTER #17’s learning resources demonstrates that American history has been beautiful? Significance? Explain & defend your choice.
“terrible” = What particular moment, event, object, individual, and/or story FROM CHAPTER #17’s learning resources demonstrates that American history has been terrible? Significance? Explain & defend your choice.
Make sure that you defend your FOUR (4) choices. Write a paragraph for each explaining how it validates an aspect of American history from the list above for a total of FOUR (4) paragraphs (about 20 sentences minimum; one paragraph = 5 sentences minimum; one sentence = 1 complete thought). Explain why you chose these particular moments, events, objects, individuals, and/or stories FROM CHAPTER #17’s learning resources. Persuade us, your readers, that you made thoughtful, insightful, informed choices by being specific about how they validate FOUR (4) aspects of American history from Baldwin’s quote.
