This is what I have so far I just need help in Part 3 Part 1: How the different type of events that happened in the Vietnam War and Watergate changed American public’s opinion of the U.S. government. Part 2: Watergate: http://www.fordlibrarymuseum.gov/museum/exhibits/watergate_files/ http://www.ncdcr.gov/ncmoh/SeeourExhibits/CurrentExhibits/Watergate.aspx Vietnam War: http://www.vietnampix.com/ http://www.history.com/topics/vietnam-war 1. I used Google 2. I typed ''information about the Vietnam war'' and ''information about Watergate''. 3. http://www.fordlibrarymuseum.gov/museum/exhibits/watergate_files/ Title: The Watergate Files http://www.ncdcr.gov/ncmoh/SeeourExhibits/CurrentExhibits/Watergate.aspx Title: Watergate: Political Scandal & the Presidency http://www.history.com/topics/vietnam-war Title: Vietnam War http://www.vietnampix.com/ Title: The Vietnam War Part 3: Choose one Vietnam War and one Watergate source from Part 2 and complete the following: •Write two or three sentences to summarize each source. •Write what you think the purpose of the source is and who the original audience would have been. •Write at least one sentence explaining how the source helps you explain the way the event affected the American public’s opinion of the government. •Choose a quote from the source that you would use as evidence to support your answer to the question. Example of Part 3: Summary: This source is from a newspaper article and explains how citizens reacted to the draft for the Vietnam War by burning their draft cards and protesting on college campuses. Audience: The original audience would have been any citizen of the U.S. who read the newspaper in the 1960s. Purpose: The purpose of the article is to explain methods that people took in the U.S. to show their dislike for the draft. Explanation of use: This source could be used as evidence to prove that people were displaying their opinions to the government and that a percentage of people did not agree with the government’s actions regarding Vietnam. Quote: A quote that I would use is: “Young men were burning their draft cards in front of cameras taking footage for the evening news.”
