PROMPT:Evaluate the impacts of World War I on the United States. To what extent did World War I impact the agricultural economy, foodways,

and social rights of individuals left on the homefront?

This assessment is taken from “Document-Based Assessment Activities for U.S. History Classes” by J. Weston Walch

Historical Context:

Page 2: msantrim.weebly.com€¦  · Web view2020-02-03 · at least 4 different documents. That is just meeting standard however and more is required to get a better score. DBQ - 30 points

During the late 1800s farmers in the United States struggled with low crop prices due to overproduction. Mechanization allowed farmers to cultivate more land while reducing the number of laborers needed to work the land. African Americans were significantly impacted by the agricultural depression as they were locked in the sharecropping system of the American South with little opportunities in other industries and the inability to move to other regions to improve their condition in life. Jim Crow laws kept African Americans socially segregated and voter suppression through poll taxes and literacy tests excluded African Americans from expressing their voices politically. Women were also fighting for equality during this time as many pushed for the right to vote. Known as women’s suffrage, the movement arose during the antebellum period under the leadership of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Motte as well as others.

In Europe mechanization was modernizing militaries across the continent and secret alliances were being formed among the countries. Russia, England, and France aligned together while Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey also formed an alliance. With the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary Europe and the world descended into war due to the alliance system. The United States attempted to remain neutral, but would eventually enter the war due to unrestricted submarine warfare used by Germany to disrupt transportation and shipping in the North Atlantic. In April of 1917 the United States officially declared war and entered World War I allied with Britain, France, and Russia.

The enlistment of white men in the military created a need for a new source of employees for industry across the nation. New opportunities were created for women and African Americans in the workplace and in society. War also brought restrictions on Constitutional rights through laws passed by Congress and actions of the government in the late 1910s and early 1920s. The documents in this packet reflect impacts upon daily life for Americans on the homefront.

Directions: The following question is based on the accompanying documents (1-7). As you analyze the documents, take into account both the source of each document and the author’s point of view. Be sure to:

1. Carefully read the document-based question. Consider what you already know about this topic. How would you answer the question if you had no documents to examine?

2. Now, read each document carefully, underlining key phrases and words that address the document-based question. You may also wish to use the margin to make brief notes.

3. Complete the graphic organizer to record the document’s author and date as well as to explain the message of the document (worth 21 points).

4. Based upon your own knowledge of the topic and on the evidence found in the documents, formulate a thesis that directly answers the question.

5. Organize supportive and relevant information a brief outline. (I will not collect this but you may use it during your in-class write on Friday, so it would be helpful to create one.)

6. Write a well organized essay proving your thesis. The essay should be logically presented and should include information from both the documents and from your own knowledge outside of the documents.

Document Analysis - Notes: 7 points (points available per document for your notes/underlining of key phrases/highlight etc.)

Read each document carefully, underlining key phrases and words that address the document-based question. You may also wish to use the margin to make brief notes.

I believe, Your Honor, in common with all Socialists, that this nation ought to own and control its own industries. I believe, as all Socialists do, that all things that are jointly needed and used ought to be jointly owned—that industry, the basis of our social life, instead of being the private property of a few and operated for their enrichment, ought to be the common property of all, democratically administered in the interest of all…

I am opposing a social order in which it is possible for one man who does absolutely nothing that is useful to amass a fortune of hundreds of millions of dollars, while millions of men and women who work all the days of their lives secure barely enough for a wretched existence.

This order of things cannot always endure. I have registered my protest against it. I recognize the feebleness of my effort, but, fortunately, I am not alone. There are multiplied thousands of others who, like myself, have come to realize that before we may truly enjoy the blessings of civilized life, we must reorganize society upon a mutual and cooperative basis; and to this end we have organized a great economic and political movement that spreads over the face of all the earth.
