Neighborhood Narcs: The Story of the American Protective League | The Saturday Evening Post
Neighborhood Narcs: The Story of the American Protective League | The Saturday Evening Post
No textbook would have a section on World War I like like this - which is precisely why teachers should use it. This is an easy way to set students up for a lesson on the intolerance that swept the American public during World War I. First students read the essay, identify a thesis and itemize the evidence. Then, they go off and fact check the evidence.
