In the sentence”While these programs persisted and even thrived, in the years immediately following this flurry of legislative activity, the national conversation surrounding Johnson’s domestic agenda largely focused on the $3 billion spent on War on Poverty programming within the Great Society’s Economic Opportunity Act (EOA) of 1964″ I think that “$3billion spent on War and poverty….” sounds better, there’s to many ons

Who is Medgar Evers? Why was he assassinated and what did it have to do with Wallace?

I fully agree with the comments criticizing the opening paragraph of this chapter. Not only is the paragraph contributing to a particular liberal narrative, the bias is reflected in the language. Instead of saying President Trump, what is written is, ” the sitting president of the United States then urged them to march on the Capitol.” Nowhere else does YAWP do this. Presidents are always properly identified except in this case. The writing treats the mere mention of Trump like some disgusting secret that can’t be spoke about. As an American it is offensive that A SUPPOSEDLY UNBIASED HISTORICAL ANALYSIS would be so shallow. Secondarily, Why would you open the Recent past with an event in 2020 then jump back to ten years earlier. Are you trying to get your two cents in about what YOU thought before you actually get to the history? Not only does it reflect poorly on American Yawp, it’s a poor stylistic and analytical choice. Grow up and be a better historian. The subpar political games you’re playing only reflects poorly on your part.

Finally, you mention that al-Qaeda was responsible for the 1993 World Trade Center Bombing. That is incorrect. al-Qaeda never officially sponsored that attack. The al-Qaeda connection comes from the fact that Yousef’s uncle was Khalid Sheik Mohammad. Implying that it was just al-Qaeda does not accurately capture the nuance of the dynamic.

It is very inspiring every time History takes us back to how the frontier settlers and urban dwellers were able to utilize the very little resources they had to achieve goals like industrialization, democracy, and evangelism. Though they had to deal with problems like inequality, abolition of slavery, and economical factors, I think the fact that they found ways to resolve these issues shows the amount of determination they had and how hard they were willing to work to create equality for all. Though their efforts failed in certain areas, I do not think they ever stopped trying.

The Citation has a misspelling. The word congress is spelled “Congres” missing the second S.
