For this paper students need to utilizing THREE primary sources found in in the textbook. You can use primary documents (documents written at the time in question) from chapter sections “Documents from Sources from America’s History” (found at the end of each chapter in the Ebook/Learning Curve text for any of the 31 chapters) or documents found in “America Compared,” “Thinking Like a Historian,” and “American Voices” found within each chapter. Utilizing THREE primary sources answer the question: How do these individuals address a common ethical issue they felt impassioned about? How did they articulate their views on moral or ethical grounds? Do you understand their position in light of the era in which they lived? How do their positions stand up today in light of modern, evolving views of the issue? Papers must make clear what sources are being used, including when you are discussing the textbook chapter (s). They MUST use the following citation format. Note that we are using a “short title” format for source titles:
