Goal: Write a five point progressive manifesto in conjunction with your teammates. 1. Each team member should report to the group about who wrote their article and summarize what it said.
Articles included:
A. John Dewey, from My Pedagogic Creed, NY and Chicago: EL Kellogg and Co, 1897.
B. Upton Sinclair, from The Jungle, 1906, excerpt.
C. Jane Addams, “ Settlement,” in Twenty Years at Hull House, New York: Macmillan, 1910.
D. Mildred Chadsey, “Municipal Housekeeping,” (1915)
E. Booker T. Washington, September 30, 1896, Address to the Brooklyn Institute
F. John Muir Save the Redwoods, 1920.
G. Theodore Roosevelt, “Civic Helpfulness,” 1900.

2. Adopting the position of your documents’ authors, discuss what you think you have in common with the positions of your fellow teammates. For example, what do you see as the PROBLEMS that need to be solved? What do you see as the SOLUTIONS to these problems?

3. Write five “manifesto statements” that best portray the beliefs and concerns of this collection of authors.

3. Each statement must reflect the opinions or observations of at least two of the sources; note which authors are associated with each statement.

4. Progressives shared certain theories about the actual state of American society and about themselves. List the basic assumptions that you found in the documents used for your manifesto. For example, local government has an obligation to provide a clean city.

“a modest proposal”

i think it was because of how protected egyptian civilization was was which allowed them to evolve without much outside influence.

answer:   migrations were important in the neolithic period. "two major migrations passing through southeastern europe were confirmed by the means of archaeo-genetic studies."

the first migration was the early neolithic period -- 6,000 before common era (bce) -- when the first farmers, from anatolia -- asia minor -- spread through europe. the second migration occurred during the early bronze age (3,000-2,500 bce) when the so-called "steppe population," from the eurasian steppe, replaced much of northern europe's previous population.

the first farmers of northern and western europe passed through southeastern europe with limited hunter-gatherer genetic admixture, which occurs when two or more previously isolated populations begin interbreeding. however, some groups that remained mixed extensively -- without the male-biased, hunter-gatherer admixture that prevailed later in the north and west, according to latest discoveries. southeastern europe continued to be a nexus between east and west, with intermittent genetic contact with the steppe people up to 2,000 years before the migrations that replaced much of northern europe's population.

"in some places, hunter-gatherers and incoming farmers seem to have mixed very quickly," says iain mathieson, a geneticist at the university of pennsylvania, who was first author of the paper. "but, mostly, the two groups remained isolated, at least for the first few hundred years. these hunter-gatherers had been living there for thousands of years, and it must have been quite a shock to have these new people show up -- with a completely different lifestyle and appearance."
