Thanks Jordan!- Looks like it would make a great paper!
Austin, nice job.
my thesis was on the expansion of population and growth and culture.
It goes: The blend of religious beliefs along with the cultural differences of immigrants traveling to the American colonies began to form the melting pot that is associated with American culture today.
I used the african american slaves' harsh conditions and their longing for unity as one of my main points and the religious northerners as another point. I basically took the harsh conditions imposed upon the slaves and then explained how these conditions required the slaves to form bonds. for the northerners their society was so strongly based on religion that it allowed for unity in that manner along with the fear of satan, which made possible for schools to start.
see above entries for description of conclusion
there you have it
My post, was about pop and Immigration. My thesis was that... America was born on the back of immigrants, even though many people today might not like to think so, if one would look back to the early 18th century, this countries massive population growth would not have been possible without those immigrants, and they came in droves because of Americans great job, political, moral and living conditions..... I know it's pretty long, but it could be okay. Other than those conditions I talked about in my thesis paragraph, there will be a part also about how America had like third world country high birth rates, and mediocre to long lives. BOO YA
