This will be our final decade-centric blog for the semester. Any topic/event from 2000-Present will work for this assignment.
As you know, please write 100 words on a political event in this time frame and another 100 words on a cultural event from this time frame.
Saints & Sinners is an extension of my Advanced US History class. This blog is a place for civil discourse, critical thinking and new ideas. The goal of these entries is to challenge your current viewpoint and encourage the development of logical arguments.
