Discussion post 7 | American history homework help

 America comes home from WWII, a power house if you will. We expand with an interstate system that lets us explore further distances than ever before.  As far as Presidents, Harry Truman stays in right after the war, General D. Eisenhower becomes president in the 1950s, then the charming JFK, Johnson becomes president due to the assassination of JFK, Nixon finally gets elected to only resign, Ford falls down the stairs, and Jimmy leaves Georgia for the White House. This is just the presidents, we have a Korean War and a Vietnam War. An entire class could be on the Civil Rights Movement of the time or the changes in culture in society. Thus, yes I know there is a lot of information, but pick a question below and try to teach others why you think the information is important.

Topics come from OpenStax Chapters 28/29/30 https://openstax.org/books/us-history/pages/28-introduction  (Links to an external site.)

You can use Exploring American Histories Chapter 24- almost through chapter 27
