For this paper, you will explore the complicated nature of the American nation from 1607 to 1877 by focusing on one of the following groups and examine how their changing roles reflected the limitations and contradictions of the term “of the people” between two of three periods.
Choose one group:
Native Americans (both men and women)
Africans and African Americans (both men and women)
White women
Choose two of the following three time periods:
1607-1781, Colonial to the Revolution War
1790-1865, Early Republic to Civil War
1865-1877, Reconstruction
Defining what constitutes the American nation, historically, is more difficult than it might at first seem. As the country grew more democratic, one of the central problems to be resolved was determining which groups constituted “of the people” that the government would represent. Should it include all persons, or only white men? The term “the people,” evolved as the America grew and expanded.
For this paper, you will explore the complicated nature of the American nation from 1607 to 1877 by focusing on one group during two periods of time, while examining how their changing roles reflected the limitations and contradictions of the term “of the people.” You will use the group and time periods that you chose in the Week Two Assignment.
