Prepare Icon Prepare: Take some time to look back
on the information that you learned in this course and the work that you have
done on your Final Project. Look back at your instructor’s feedback on your
thesis on the Week Three Assignment.
Reflect: Throughout this course, we
have looked at how life has changed for different groups of Americans since the
end of Reconstruction. Think about the many ways that the United States has made
tremendous progress in realizing equality for all Americans. Where are there
still some areas in which there is more to do? What conclusions have you reached
while researching your Final Project? What specific events support your
conclusion?

Write: Create a post that explains:

  • The main conclusion from your Final Project. This is your thesis. Be sure to
    take the time to review your instructor’s feedback on your Week Three assignment
    and consider any additional information that you have learned. Then, revise your
    thesis accordingly.
  • At least two events that support your conclusion.

Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Provide specific
examples to support your points. Be sure to quote or paraphrase sources,

plagiarizing.
