Portfolio Milestone

Description

Protest movements are as old as the American Revolution itself.  Be sure to consider: The discontent that inspired the movement in the first place. The main goals and objectives of the movement.  Important individuals and leaders who were involved. How those objectives were achieved or not achieved and the legacy of the movement itself. The global connections of the protest movement. Were individuals inspired by world personalities or movements? What can this protest movement tell us about American history and its people? Some ideas you might consider are: the civil rights movements, the women’s movement, anti-war protests, LGBT or labor movements, anti-Wall Street protests, the Tea Party movement, the anti-Imperialist movement, suffragist movement, America First before the Second World War, etc. Submit your Portfolio Project topic and a short (1-2 paragraphs) description of your project to your instructor for preliminary approval.
