HIST 2020 M50/D50: US History since 1877 Dr. Cookie Woolner Exam #2 Summer 2025 Assignment: In this document there are two images each from the 1920s, The Great Depression, World War II, and the early Cold War. You will select four images to analyze, one each for the four different time periods we have examined since Exam #1. Please choose a primary source from each era that you think best captures some of the central issues of the era. Again, be sure to write about just one image for each of the four eras, and do not write about both images for the same time period. Write a 150–200-word minimum paragraph about each of your four sources. Each paragraph should begin with an opening thesis statement about the era and/or the primary source and end with a concluding sentence. In each paragraph, briefly describe the source and then discuss its relevance to the era and the larger issues associated with it. Why is this primary source symbolic of its era? How is it significant historically and how does it connect to central issues of the time period? Address these questions in each of your four paragraphs. You should be able to enlarge the images to examine their details. Please use Give Me Liberty! and the class materials posted in the weekly discussion questions to contextualize your four historical primary sources. If you cite information from these sources, even without directly quoting from them, refer to the textbook page number, or the video title (for links I’ve posted) in parentheses at the end of the sentence. Please do not cite other sources.
