Choose an issue from American History that we have discussed in class recently. Write a brief (one to three paragraph) history of the issue and the Federalist vs. Anti federalist issues involved. In this brief history, be sure to cite relevant sources and make specific, clear references to major historical events.
The issue that i am focusing in is the interracial marriage in the united states. For a while interracial marriage was illegal in the united states and wasn't made legal until 1967. This issue is more of the anti federalism side because it is trying to change the law for certain individuals instead of the government taking control and make the disicion for all of them.
interview
I interviewed my father what were his thoughts of interracial marriage he really didn't believe in it "I don't agree with it" he thinks that most interracial marriage doesn't work and that you should just stick to your own race. I asked him if his opinion is like that because he was around before the law was passed and the way he was raised it wasn't right.
Then....
Choose at least one person not in this class whose opinion you respect. Interview this person to seek their ideas and opinions about the issues inherent in the element of history you have chosen.
Ideally, you want to quote this person, but it is okay to paraphrase their ideas at certain points, if necessary.
